I have a new theory - do we need to enable some sort of suspend on halt
for Intel chips? I see we do this for various cyrix chips, and I saw
in a search that pentiums with MMX have "auto halt" and "low power
on auto halt" options:
http://www-student.informatik.uni-bonn.de:8001/~petera/lpp/
Do we enable these? I don't see any CPU_SUSP_HLT options
in initcpu.c for Intel chips.
Chip is
> CPU: Pentium III/Pentium III Xeon/Celeron (801.82-MHz 686-class CPU)
> Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x686 Stepping = 6
