CPU: Pentium/P55C (199.31-MHz 586-class CPU) Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x544 Stepping = 4 Features=0x8001bf<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,MCE,CX8,MMX> dc0: <LC82C115 PNIC II 10/100BaseTX> port 0x7c00-0x7cff mem 0xffafbf00-0xffafbfff irq 9 at device 8.0 on pci0 The patch seems to work fine on my system, never had and collision problems before, so no regression. -- Anish Mistry
