Subject: 386 + TSC -> none good

It seems that some config breakage have sneaked past the people in
position due to the fact little people use 386-powered boxens nowadays ;)

The result being a menuconfig selection of 386 cpu in 2.4.20-pre9
producing a .config with a CONFIG_X86_ENABLE_TSC (or was it _USE_TSC?).
2.4.19-rc1 which i`ve ran before has no problem with it.

I`ve built the kernel without looking at the resulting .config
and then i was able to admit that my 386 somehow lacks "the TSC feature"

cheers,

This is quite curious. Could you please send me your .config?
