That looks fine to me as well. However, the best solution is something which Luca suggested a few months ago, which is to use the functions defined in altivec.h. These are C functions which map directly to Altivec machine instructions. I am willing to help out, but I don't find the current lpc_asm.s very easy to follow, and my time is quite limited (my last patch to a free software project took almost three months to get into decent shape!). It would help to hear from Chris, I think. >> could you also send me version strings for your versions of >> as/gas for whatever combination of PPC,OS that you have? Mine is the same as Luca's. cheers, John
