For an 900A w/intel Atom?
This is what I get:
Warning: Your compiler supports the -march=native option which you may prefer
Warning: Newer versions of GCC better support your CPU with -march=atom
-march=core2 -mtune=pentium -mfpmath=sse.
Now I'm confused. It says *my* compiler supports -march=native. Then it says
"Newer versions". Isn't v4.3.2 new? It was from a new pkg about a month ago. Is
it giving me a choice here? Can I really declare two -march variables? What
about mtune and mfpath, are they meant to be "instead of" or "in addition to"?
What goes in the kernel config? What in /etc/paludis/bashrc?
