Please note that mmx seems to be missing in both columns. despite that its there in my USE in make.conf `cat /proc/cpuinfo |grep flags` to see what flags your cpu uses. Perhaps your cpu doesn't handle mmx? Sorry, I don't have expierence with your cpu. -Jeremy -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org

In fact if i remove the USE line from the make.conf file ...and i do emerge --info ...it is showing USE flags that i have no clue from where its coming. I guess that that is what is overiding my changes in USE i.e its been ignoring the fact that wanted mmx and 3dnow etc to be used. In case

Thanks now I understand the default USE flags I see, I think. And apologies for not searching the manual first. But I still do not understand why flags like mmx (or 3dnow) flags that i put in the /etc/make.conf file is not getting picked up. Am i right in my understanding that emerge --info

Thanks all for your help...and I know why now mmx flag was getting masked. Its in the use.mask as suggested by Martins. Attached is the use.mask file i have ...that file gets updated/overwritten every time i do a emerge --sync, right ? For some reason all the flags under x86/amd are

Apologies for not having done my research properly In this /specific/ case, you don't have to because the ebuilds and gcc know that x86_64 CHOST means that mmx etc. ARE supported and they will hard-enable them (you may not turn them off). Do you mean that, say, xawtv would have been

The mmx USE flag is not supported on the amd64 profile. The processor does support mmx instructions, but (I think) only when operating in 32-bit mode. So it probably doesn't make sense to have an amd64 profile with the mmx/sse/3dnow use flags. Presumably there are better processor
