[David Martin]

Hi,

On an Intel Pentium 200 machine:

~ $ dmesg | grep F0
Intel Pentium with F0 0F bug - workaround enabled.
~ $ cat /prc/cpuinfo
processor	: 0
vendor_id	: GenuineIntel
cpu family	: 5
model		: 2
model name	: Pentium 75 - 200
stepping	: 12
cpu MHz		: 205.231
cache size	: 0 KB
fdiv_bug	: no
hlt_bug		: no
f00f_bug	: no
coma_bug	: no
fpu		: yes
fpu_exception	: yes
cpuid level	: 1
wp		: yes

~ $

On 2.4 kernels it showed it correctly.

I also attach my .config

 $ ./ver_linux
