Hi, Version 0.14.1 was build a short while ago and is now ready to download. It includes a couple of changes:
1. mtrr test - this now now correctly checks the pre-fetchable status from the output of lspci. Before now MTRR tests were getting a false positive and failing on a lot of machines. 2. mtrr test - now checks the that BIOS is configuring the VGA memory region MTRR. We have found that a lot of BIOSes don't configure a MTRR on this region, which can slow down the way grub2 renders video and hence slows down a boot by a large fraction of a second (every second counts!) This is logged as low level failure, and it recommends that the MTRR is configured by the BIOS. 3. Add in some short switches to common options - mainly because I was wearing my fingers out typing the long versions. fwts -h shows these in the help info. That's about it.
