[bf1942] show me the hardware, show me the hardware!

[Kevin J. Anderson]

I recently solved the *idle* high cpu issue by following andreas' suggestion
to use the 2.4.21 vanilla kernel stripped down, mentioned here in this
thread.

Great results so far, but still waiting to see some serious player load.

->caused by DC or the Linux kernel problem Andreas referred to. Either

->aware, the specs of my server are very similar to the 64 player BF
->servers run by NVidia).
