Subject: [PATCH] NSC Geode IA32 CPU ID
Date: Tue, 5 Feb 2002 11:19:11 +0900 (JST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020205021911.696F0118231@triton2> (raw)
Hello,
I think current kernel dont recognize NSC Geode CPU ID.
Geode was called MediaGX/GXm before, but National semicomductor Corp.
changes ID from "CyrixInstead" to "Geode by NSC".
I made a patch to fix this.
