*************************************************
the CPU i got is
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 6
model           : 8
model name      : Pentium III (Coppermine)
stepping        : 3
cpu MHz         : 701.601
cache size      : 256 KB

	The ENV var 'MESA_NO_SSE' has no effect at all. I
Recompiled the cvs this time with 
#define MesaUseKatmai YES 
	commented out and yet still recieve "Floating point
exception" a notable mention thought when dri is
disabled I am able to run all opengl programs
(slowly).
        the odd thing is that I cant find the error
msg Floating point exception in any of the sources. Is
this in kernel?
