Thanks, but I think the SandyBridge is just too old for intel to
care about. My posts from tonight show that, via debian, I got an
update for the haswell. Yes, I will of course go for kernel updates

early stage of discussion, meanwhile I've updated firefox to help
with mitigation.
I'll reply to your earlier post in a moment.
