The vast majority of Pentium M and Celeron M CPUs are suitable for fakepae or forcepae and can work with PAE kernels. But some of these processors need a non-pae kernel. We found a Pentium M 1.70 GHz which does not work with forcepae. It gives the following output from cpuid|grep ^0001 0

Yes, it would be nice for the user to not have to bother with forcepae to run computers with Pentium M and Celeron M CPUs. But I think this is a great improvement. Forcepae (used according to Colin Watson's advice in post #8) makes it much easier to use Ubuntu flavours in version 14.04 LTS compare
