Yes, I've got a couple of spare kernels on the box so I'll reboot and update.

Here's my CPU lines from dmesg FWIW:

CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) Processor (995.56-MHz 686-class CPU)
  Origin = "AuthenticAMD"  Id = 0x642  Stepping = 2
  Features=0x183f9ff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,MMX,FXSR>
  AMD Features=0xc0440000<RSVD,AMIE,DSP,3DNow!>

Thanks,
Eric
