Other Help Topics :: DSL Store..... is the M10k board the _real_ M10k?
Hello,
I am wanting to buy an Epia M-10000 board from the DSL store. The trouble I'm having is getting a solid ID on the specific motherboard that I need. All I want is the CPU to have the rng flag (Random Number Generator).
Would cat /proc/cpuinfo show all possible CPU flags? right off the bat or would the rng flag only show up if the module was loaded in the kernel?
Reason I ask is that I recently purchased an m10000-lvds from a local shop and the rng flag was NOT listed.
Please straighten me out on this 
Here's a more clear-cut question.
If anyone out there has an epia M board, would you kindly
check to see if your proc has the rng flag? If so, which m10k board is it? Thank you!
Alrighty-
Found my own answer:
The flags listed in /proc/cpuinfo depend on the kernel. It's not a static listing based solely out of hardware. On the m10k-"lvds",
the rng flags do show up under the 2.6.7 kernel....
HTH somebody
I know it's helped me ;)
