Mike,
IIRC only SOME of the K* chips can do that. I'll check it out and try
to post some kind of patch to disable it on the ones that can't. I've got
a K5-133 and will give it a spin when it gets in the real release. I've
got enough trouble trying to "fix" the EPA mandated brokenness on my
Harley's carb to worry about keeping 2 separate kernel source trees
running. Heck, I haven't even gone past 2.1.64 because I've been wussing
out on the glibc upgrade... It'll prolly happen this week though...

Pat
