Hi Steve,
Forgive my ignorance....
>From the previous postings, I *thought* that the validation only
applies to real iron, and [retroactively] was not conferred to the
VMs. But it seems like this list includes real hardware, too:
12 Ubuntu 10.04 running on Intel Core i5 with AES-NI (32 bit)
(gcc Compiler Version 4.1.3)
32 Ubuntu 10.04 (32 bit) (gcc Compiler Version 4.1.3)
33 Ubuntu 10.04 (64 bit) (gcc Compiler Version 4.1.3)
Those caught my eye because I used them in the past (specifically, 12).
What exactly changed? Or where is my disconnect?
Jeff
