It works fine here on several Athlon / Opteron systems running Fedora Core 2 and Fedora Core 3; for example: -> cat /etc/issue Fedora Core release 2 (Tettnang) Kernel \r on an \m -> uname -a Linux pollux 2.6.10-1.770_FC2smp #1 SMP Sat Feb 26 19:46:59 EST 2005 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux -> cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 15 model : 5 model name : AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 246 stepping : 10 cpu MHz : 2004.596 cache size : 1024 KB 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 pni syscall nx mmxext lm 3dnowext 3dnow bogomips : 3940.35 TLB size : 1088 4K pages clflush size : 64 cache_alignment : 64 address sizes : 40 bits physical, 48 bits virtual power management: ts fid vid ttp processor : 1 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 15 model : 5 model name : AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 246 stepping : 10 cpu MHz : 2004.596 cache size : 1024 KB 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 pni syscall nx mmxext lm 3dnowext 3dnow bogomips : 4005.88 TLB size : 1088 4K pages clflush size : 64 cache_alignment : 64 address sizes : 40 bits physical, 48 bits virtual power management: ts fid vid ttp -> type ppc_8xx-gcc ppc_8xx-gcc is /opt/eldk/usr/bin/ppc_8xx-gcc -> ppc_8xx-gcc -v Reading specs from /opt/eldk-3.1.1/usr/bin/../lib/gcc-lib/ppc-linux/3.3.3/specs Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --disable-checking --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --with-newlib --enable-languages=c,c++ --disable-libgcj --host=i386-redhat-linux --target=ppc-linux Thread model: posix gcc version 3.3.3 (DENX ELDK 3.1.1 3.3.3-9) Best regards, Wolfgang Denk -- Software Engineering: Embedded and Realtime Systems, Embedded Linux Phone: (+49)-8142-66989-10 Fax: (+49)-8142-66989-80 Email: wd at denx.de Neckties strangle clear thinking. -- Lin Yutang
