Also i think you misunderstood my post. Its not hard to trigger as such. It just depends on your luck of CPU. If there is a hot thermal spot or not and if so, at what frequencies. I do not believe it s a virtualization only bug. Its a pretty lame excuse. Also you would just have the BIOS setting where you disable or enable virtualization to enable or disable the fix aswell. I call it a smoke screen
NP I wrote a mail to x86-64 with a link to the description, waiting for feedback now. The reviewer seems to be an amd-fan so i do not trust that guy.

The hotspot thing is speculation atm. No phenom user in the AMD section could find a relation between stability and temps or between stability and the tlb-fix.

Maybe you are right and not all cpu's are affected. But that whould be something AMD-marketing whould have mentioned.

Here is an success report for the linux tlb-patch.
