-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Here is the output of my cpuinfo, I'll point out where it will mean 64bit. For the sake of this demonstration, I have only pasted one (1) CPU.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 15 model : 75 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ <-- Here will be your first indication. 64 bit processors, weather they are SPARC, AMD or intel, must identify themselves clearly in the model name field. stepping : 2 cpu MHz : 1000.000 <-- forgive this, my cpu's are idle at the moment and speedstep droped me down for the moment. cache size : 512 KB physical id : 0 siblings : 2 core id : 0 cpu cores : 2 <-- If you are a multi-core CPU, this will tell you how many cores per processor. All cores are identical, so if you have a 64-bit Dual/Quad-Core CPU, then all cores are 64bit. fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt rdtscp lm 3dnowext 3dnow rep_good pni cx16 lahf_lm cmp_legacy svm extapic cr8_legacy <-- you can look for flags that may give away 64bit, such as lahf_lm, lm and nx. bogomips : 2010.67 TLB size : 1024 4K pages clflush size : 64 cache_alignment : 64 address sizes : 40 bits physical, 48 bits virtual power management: ts fid vid ttp tm stc For reference, this is a good read talking about 64 Bit processors and how to identify them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHzswf8hUIAnGfls4RArR2AJ9X+BYt338vuPAK6Pa0Lmcbtp6GLgCcDAn4 QaXGbnhOKYx2PMKhVBpu5I8= =9QKB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
