If that shows something disabled that cat /proc/cpuinfo shows as 
available, is it safe to turn it on?  So far all I have found that is 
disabled that cpuinfo shows is mmx.  I'm still looking tho.

Also, I think the native setting is a setting that is known to be 100% 
safe.  It is likely one of those things that if you use anything not 
safe and have problems, you get to keep the pieces.  I think if the CPU 
supports it should be fine to turn but wanted to ask and make sure.  I 
paid almost $200 for my CPU and I would like to get $200 out of it and 
use it all.  I bought the whole thing so may as well use the whole 
thing.  ;-)

Thoughts?
