Hi everyone!
I really hate to beat a subject to death a little more like this, but I
was showing off my system to a friend today and he asked me why it said I
had a Pentium 60/66. I've got a little patch here that adds a k5model
function and supporting code to setup.c. It is against the pre-44-3
patch. I'm going to include it in the hopes that it or something like it
ends up in the kernel at some point in time... It seems kind of a shame
that Linux only REALLY id's Intel x86 chips...
Sorry about the gripe... It just bugs me... Anyways, here's that
patch:
