Accroding to my kernel, this is what i got:

CPU: Before vendor init, caps: 3febf9ff 00000000 00000000, vendor = 0
CPU: L1 I cache: 0K, L1 D cache: 8K
CPU: L2 cache: 512K
CPU: After vendor init, caps: 3febf9ff 00000000 00000000 00000000
Intel machine check architecture supported.
Intel machine check reporting enabled on CPU#0.
CPU: After generic, caps: 3febf9ff 00000000 00000000 00000000
CPU: Common caps: 3febf9ff 00000000 00000000 00000000
CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 Mobile CPU 1.70GHz stepping 04
Enabling fast FPU save and restore... done.
Enabling unmasked SIMD FPU exception support... done.
Checking 'hlt' instruction... OK.

The machine is a Comapq Evo n800c with a 1.7GHz P4-M in it, and
according to the BIOS I've got 16kb/512Kb L1/L2-cache. Accroding to
the 2.4.20-pre7-ac3-kernel. It's been like this at least since
2.4.19-pre4 or so.

mvh,
