Can I commit the following to CVS? It makes the message a bit more readalbe (and obvious that it is in hex) and tells the user if the probe failed.

I'd like to wait until tglx considers cvs stable enough for a mainline merge. Thomas, besides the general lack of time, are there any major blockers left?
