      Ingo Molnar authored
      GCC 3.0 and 3.1 are too old to build a working kernel.

        inclusion mess in f153b821, but Willy
        Tarreau reports actually having those old versions still..  -Linus ]

      i8k: Add Dell Vostro systems · bef2a508
      Federico Heinz authored
      This trivial patch adds support for i8k on the new Dell Vostro models.
      I tested it on my Vostro 1400, and it works. It does print a warning
      when loading the module:
      
      	i8k: unable to get SMM BIOS version
      
      But I couldn't figure out how to fix that. The module seems to work fine,
      anyway...
