Package: linux-source-2.6 Severity: wishlist
-- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.6 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i586) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash The /proc/cpuinfo shows that the geode lx has cmov, so I changed the sources to compile a kernel with cmov support. diff arch/x86/Kconfig.cpu arch/x86/Kconfig.cpu.bak 409c409 < depends on (MK7 || MPENTIUM4 || MPENTIUMM || MPENTIUMIII || MPENTIUMII || M686 || MVIAC3_2 || MVIAC7 || MGEODE_LX || X86_64) --- > depends on (MK7 || MPENTIUM4 || MPENTIUMM || MPENTIUMIII || MPENTIUMII > || M686 || MVIAC3_2 || MVIAC7 || X86_64) Because I'm running an alix board with geode cpu I was able to verify that this does noch break the kernel. It seems that all geode do have cmov so I think this is a save bet. This wish also applies to the 2.6.32 kernel in testing aka squeeze. There is also a related discussion on the LKML on this topic. Thank you. Best regards, Stephan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
