Hi, I just removed the switch from that routine. Unfortunately I can't test it myself as I am unable to do a full SVN checkout on this system (CVS worked though) :-/ (always a 'broken pipe' at some point these days) Anyway, there's not much code to test anyway: I guess it's safe to assume it's OK without testing (any CPU executing that routine should exec hlt anyway :) Rudolf. > Axel, > > > Yes, that should work, it's in src/system/kernel/arch/x86/ > > arch_cpu.c, > > line 455ff. :-) > OK, I'll try to find it tomorrow :) > > > What's your exact system configuration, btw? > P3-500 x2, ASUS P2B-D board, various graphicscards, emu10k1 audio (no > driver loaded on haiku though), RTL8139 network (not checked yet), > PS2 > logitech mouse (tried two types, same result), logitech kb, noname > kb, > (same results). > DVDROM, CD-writer HP 4 speed,, floppy, 512Mb ram. and firewire > (supported in beos) > > > > BTW: Cool we have MTRR support!
