Feldman: |Randall Hopper: |> Does FreeBSD support Write Combining on K6 processors? | |Do you mean the MTRR support for K6-2 and above? Yes, that's in 3.3 and 4.0. Great! Thanks. Do you know what the status is on the XFree86-FreeBSD MTRR interface that was being hammered out (to coordinate write-combine setup on the frame buffer)? All I find in Dejanews is: http://www.deja.com/=dnc/[ST_rn=ps]/getdoc.xp?AN=452806764 http://www.deja.com/=dnc/[ST_rn=ps]/getdoc.xp?AN=502908632 Also, I wonder if you've seen/heard of an MTRR patch for 3.2-RELEASE :-) Thanks, Randall To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
