If so, that would be really helpful to have. The same person at Intel provides the string to the PAL team for the PAL_BRAND_INFO call as gets used in the manuals. So the goal is that they should be the same. But the reaction time of print-media and PAL releases is different, so when branding changes happen, the strings may get out of sync. That's apparently the case here: print manuals will include the 9xxx processor model number, but current PAL doesn't have that. -Tony - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-ia64" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
