Ok,
I am fairly inept when it comes to kernel and what the messages mean, I was
wondering if someone would explain a few messages to me.. I just compiled
the 2.4.6 kernel on a new computer with the Tyan Thunder K7 and 2 1.2Ghz AMD
Athlon MP CPUs, I have 1 GB of DDRAM in this computer.. I also am trying out
a Adaptec 2400A IDE Raid Card...
I get the following messages, I will paste dmesg.log at the bottom if you
want to see it..
mtrr: your CPUs had inconsistent fixed MTRR settings
mtrr: probably your BIOS does not setup all CPUs
>From what i gather that message can just be ignored, it stems from bios
vendors not following specs, and Linux is just making corrections.. Am I
right?
agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 816M
agpgart: Unsupported AMD chipset (device id: 700c), you might want to try
agp_try_unsupported=1.
agpgart: no supported devices found.
Ok, I understand the AMD chipset on this board is new, my question here is,
how do I turn on agp_try_unsupported.. Patch the kernel?
Thanks for the help.
Ryan

The bios really isn't doing anything wrong, more like its not doing
anything. It probably just isn't setting the second CPU. Linux, as far
as I know, will set up the second CPU for you, and it only letting you
know what's going on.

Even easier; agp_try_unsupported is a kernel command line parameter. If
you're using LILO, boot with the line "linux agp_try_unsupported=1" or
the like, or put "append="agp_try_unsupported=1"" in your lilo.conf
file.
