[OpenIndiana-discuss] OI Hipster 2018.04 snapshot

[Stephan Althaus]

Hello Nikola!

I am using a DELL Latitude E6500 with "Intel(r) Core(tm)2 Duo CPU     
T9800  @ 2.93GHz"
and i seem not to have any basic problems (despite of some firefox-tabs 
somewhen eating CPU).

The only difference to my cpu i see (looking at ark.intel..) is the 
codename 'merom' and the lack of "Intel® Trusted Execution Technology"

Maybe there's something in the newer kernels where this feature is needed.
(just guessing..?()?)
