Synopsis: XFree86 4.X panics FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE on Asus A7A266 motherboard

Responsible-Changed-Why: 
I can reproduce this on the same motherboard at home when I install
XF86-4. According to some intel documentation I have, if you get a
GPF in protected mode then either the privilage level is not 0
(which it should be in the kernel) or the value in ECX isn't a
valid MSR register number. I guess we must be looking at the
latter.

I wonder this is a problem specific to the A7A266 board, or if
relates to all Athlon processors? Is anyone using FreeBSD-4 or
FreeBSD-current with XFree86-4 with a video driver which would
try to alter the MTRR settings?
