Description Heiko Baums 2003-12-05 19:11:55 UTC 
I installed gentoo-sources 2.4.22-r1. 
In make menuconfig I activated every option in the sections "Code maturity level options" and "Loadable 
module support". 
In the section "Processor type and features" there is no processor family option to optimize the kernel for 
Athlon XP like in the previous versions. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. cd /usr/src/linux (It's linked to /usr/src/linux-2.4.22-gentoo-r1.) 
2. make menuconfig 
3. Activate every option in the sections "Code maturity level options" and "Loadable module support" 
4. Enter section "Processor type and features" 
5. Select the option "Processor family" and press Enter 
Actual Results:  
I didn't find an option for the Athlon XP processor. 

Expected Results:  
There should be an option for the Athlon XP processor like in gentoo-sources 2.4.20-r7 and 2.4.20-r8 to 
optimize the kernel for Athlon XP. 

This is the output from emerge info:
