Package: msr-tools
Version: 1.1.2-1
Severity: normal

There seems to be something wrong the 32 bit msr tools.  I've got a
phenom, so I've been playing with MSRs 0xC0010015 and 0xC0011023 (for the
TLB problems).  With a 64 bit install, I can read an write those registers 
just fine.  With the 32 bit install, I get this:

# rdmsr -p 0   0xC0010015
rdmsr:pread: Invalid argument
# rdmsr -p 0   0xC0011023
rdmsr:pread: Invalid argument

Those commands work fine on 64 bit.

I found another tool to read and write MSRs here:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Flashing_LinuxBIOS

I compiled them and they also properly read those registers on 32 bit.
