Hi All, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I changed the CPU on an old box from a PIII 600MHz to a PIII 733MHz. Then |
| 4 |
updated the box and sys-apps/microcode-ctl-1.15 was installed. Since then |
| 5 |
it's been coming up with errors: |
| 6 |
=============================================== |
| 7 |
# /etc/init.d/microcode_ctl restart |
| 8 |
* Caching service dependencies ... [ ok ] |
| 9 |
* Updating microcode ... |
| 10 |
/usr/sbin/microcode_ctl: error writing to '/dev/cpu/microcode' errno=22 |
| 11 |
(Invalid argument) |
| 12 |
/usr/sbin/microcode_ctl: there may be messages from the driver in your system |
| 13 |
log. |
| 14 |
* Failed to update microcode via '/dev/cpu/microcode' |
| 15 |
=============================================== |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
the log error is: |
| 18 |
=============================================== |

via '/dev/cpu/microcode' |
| 24 |
=============================================== |

|
| 26 |
What's the fix to this problem? I've removed /etc/microcode.dat and remerged |
| 27 |
the package but I am still getting the same error. Any ideas? |
