I let this problem sit since 2.4.5 came out because that's when this problem first occurred. Only recently did I get around to hunt down a fix. I understood that I was to "comment out" "MCE" in the sources. So I did a 'grep -r 'MCE' ./' in the sources and found bunch of occurrences, the first ones being: ./include/asm-i386/processor.h:#define X86_CR4_MCE 0x0040 /* Machine check enable */ ./include/asm-i386/cpufeature.h:#define X86_FEATURE_MCE (0*32+ 7) /* Machine Check Architecture */ So now my question is: what exactly should I comment out? One? Both? In _all_ sources? Please bear with me as I know next to nothing of C (or any language for that matter). Also: i'm not an LKML-subscriber so could you please CC: this to me? Thanks and cheers, -Mike :.˛mkabzwmb˛mbz_^nrzh&zzޗ++zfh~iz_j:+v)ߣmSy杶ii
