I really wonder why SSE is the only instruction addition that has to be expicitly enabled in the kernel config. 3dNow and athlon-dsp instructions work without special kernel vars. So what is the big difference for sse? As you've already said, the kernel knows about the availability of SSE in this sysctl var. So why this option ?
