Documentation/Changes: clean up mcelog paragraph

2014-07-12T18:30:36+00:00

The paragraph on mcelog currently describes kernel v2.6.31. In that
kernel the mce code (for i386, that is) was in transition. Ever since
v2.6.32 the situation is much simpler (eg, mcelog is now needed to
process events on almost all x86 machines, i386 and x86-64). Since this
"document is designed to provide a list of the minimum levels of
software necessary to run the 3.0 kernels" let's just describe that
situation.

remove obsolete references to powertweak

2013-11-28T04:34:32+00:00

This tool hasn't been maintained in over a decade, and is pretty much
useless these days.  Let's pretend it never happened.

Also remove a long-dead email address.

Documentation/Changes: remove some really obsolete text

2011-07-11T23:48:38+00:00

That file harkens back to the days of the big 2.4 -> 2.6 version jump,
and was based even then on older versions.  Some of it is just obsolete,
and Jesper Juhl points out that it talks about kernel versions 2.6 and
should be updated to 3.0.

Remove some obsolete text, and re-phrase some other to not be 2.6-specific.

Documentation/Changes: minor corrections

2011-03-23T00:44:17+00:00

I noticed the 'mcelog' program had no comment and then ended up "fixing"
a few more things:

  * reiserfsck -V does not print "reiserfsprogs" (any more?)
  * is "udevinfo" still shipped? udevd certainly is
  * grub2 doesn't have a 'grub' binary
  * add a "# how to get the mcelog version" comment

Documentation update broken web addresses

2010-07-11T19:55:42+00:00

I've found some web addresses not responding, giving the cannot
connect error when trying to load them. The below patch updates
the addresses that are not connecting with the best that I can find,
and also fixes a couple of addresses, so people can either choose an older
version of the package and/or a newer version(i.e. ppp).
