What is realy mean? Some Via CPU is like i486 (by instruction set). CPU: VIA Ezra (800.04-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin="CentaurHauls" Id=0x678 Family=0x6 Model=0x7 Stepping=8 Features=0x803035<FPU,DE,TSC,MSR,MTRR,PGE,MMX> AMD Features=0x80000000<3DNow!> _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
