The AMD K6-II and K6-III do support 3DNow!
The patch below adds a new option for the AMD K6-II and K6-III and
enables CONFIG_X86_USE_3DNOW.
I'm currently running 2.5.67 with this patch applied on my K6-II.
Questions:
Is it really correct to enable CONFIG_X86_USE_3DNOW?
Is the -march=k6-2 correct?
TIA
Adrian
