Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hi, I noticed discussion of the various Via KT133A chipset problems related to Athlon optimized kernels has trailed off. Are people successfully using the patch that Alan Cox posted, or are there still problems? I just ran into this last night (I thought all the Athlon chipset bugs had been fixed in 2.4.4 prior to last night). Anyway, just requesting status, and I'll gladly offer any testing help that's needed. ==== Actually it appears that I cut cut off from the kernel list :). Hmm did I say something wrong? :). Seriously, there has not been any change by me... I'm running 2.4.4 with the athlon-specific fast_page_copy TURNED OFF. My system is very stable, though I'm sad that I can't get the performance out of my system as I should... I guess it may be time to look for another M/B that does not exhibit these problems... --Seth (bergsoft@home.com)
