The Athlon claims to support FXSAVE, so I dont think that explains it. There is a problem with the older RH kernel (2.2.14 one) which sees the PSN flag is set and tries to disable PSN but the AMD chips use the flag for a different purpose - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Re: bizarre problems with Athlon system after upgrdaing motherboard
When we upgraded the motherboard, we got consistant GPFs right after the line: Enabling extended fast FPU save It sounds like Redhat patched the kernel to support the Pentium III XMM extensions and the kernel is misdetecting the Athlon as a PIII. The Athlon claims to support FXSAVE, so I dont think that explains it.
