Forgive me, Guys....dunno how to reply to each of your responses
*individually*, so....

Bruce,

Thanks for responses.
I knew of 'lspci' and 'lsmod', did not know of 'lscpu'.....very cool!
Lot's of info.

Just the PDF, or from the web browser as well?  Afraid of making typos
and hosing everything.

That's why I would copy/paste.....

Again, thanks, Bruce!


Ken,

Man......I feel like such a dumb dumb!

Per your advice:

I checked my browser executable, 'iceweasel' and sure enough.....it is 32 bit!

I checked under root (/) for 'lib64'.....missing!

It seems that although 'uname -a' reveals a 64 bit kernel my
environment is actually 32bit!

I did some Googling and it appears that an AMD 64bit kernel can run
32bit binaries.

I gotta start over....... :(

<sigh>

Well, I can't thank you gentlemen enough for your generous sharing of time
and knowledge!

I, now, have a MUCH better understanding of what's going on.....I need a 64
version of Knoppix (or other Live distro) that actually has a 64bit kernel
AND a 64bit userland/dev setup.

Thank you both!

Keith
