I have to update this a bit. It turns out that _some_BIOSes _do_ set 
this up. I saw one where you can actually select this yourself in the 
MB system setup utility.

Graphics: Nope. Nothing done beyond the 'general' driverversion in 
haiku CVS (skeleton).
This will change however, but not in CVS I expect. Still waiting for a 
decision about this here :-/

VIA CPU: (mtrr) Works, but as it's a 'hack' it's not in CVS.


Bye!
