Subjectkernel 2.1.131 and second processor

Please help,

I have a Tekram P6B40D-A5 motherboard with two Pentium II - 350s
the second processor is wrongly detected as a Celeron (Covington),
in /arch/i386/kernel/setup.c, eax returns with a value of 64 when
(i guess) it should be 40? for 512k cache.

I have patched the motherboard bios with the latest patch, with no
change. I have hacked setup.c to force 512k cache detection, but
not happy with my solution... Any suggestions?

Also I get:

Dec 4 10:43:26 loyal kernel: mtrr: your CPUs had inconsistent fixed MTRR
settings
Dec 4 10:43:26 loyal kernel: mtrr: your CPUs had inconsistent variable
MTRR settings
Dec 4 10:43:26 loyal kernel: mtrr: probably your BIOS does not setup all
CPUs

Are any of these things a big problem?

Thanks!
