Package: microcode.ctl
Version: 1.17-3
Severity: wishlist
Rudolf Marek posted on June 21 a way to also extract core duo microcode
updates, which fixes the infamous "Errata AE18 not fixed, update BIOS or
microcode of the CPU!".
that is the way to obtain the core duo microcodes (I am happily using
them appended to the orig microcode file):
wget ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/79uj20us.exe
cabextract -F "*PAT" 79uj20us.exe
ls -1 *PAT | while read line; do echo "/* Microcode from $line */" ;
hexdump -e ' 4/4 "0x%08X, " "\n"' $line ;done >mcode.txt
please include in the distribution!
