Hi!

As far as i understood MTRR's is some stuff to map memory ranges in the
kernel (maybe i am wrong). To get rid of a message like "no MTRR's avail"
you can activate this in the kernel config under "prozessor stuff".

It normally has nothing to do with ltsp besides that the ltsp-kernel is
build without this support.

Bye
Bernd
