Hi,

Here is the latest and greatest Jumbo patch against 2.0.35, now revision 5.

Changes from rev -4:

- Fixed Intel Pentium kernel boot freeze.
- Much improved Intel CPU detection and reporting (doesn't detect those Xeon
thingys, though; if Intel will send me one I'll work on it, promised).
- Benoit Poulot-Cazajous' neat K6 bug detection code was back-ported from kernel
2.1.x by Rob Dale. Thanks, Rob :-)
- Some code cleanup.

As the code stands now, it's the most complete x86 CPU detection code available
on _any_ OS kernel. Definitely an attractive "beauty wart".

(The Intel code still needs some testing, though).

Also, I won't be posting the patch to the list anymore. Please look for it at

Cheers,
