Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: Thanks. uname looks like the way to go, then.
Is your copy of OpenSolaris running in 32-bit mode or 64-bit mode? Does the mode make a difference to the output of uname, or is uname -p always i386, regardless of the mode? I think the configure test for the inline assembly should go ahead on both x86 and x86-64: it seems likely that a 64-bit OS would be using SSE2 instructions for floating-point (which would make setting and getting the x87 control word unnecessary) instead of the x87 FPU, but I don't know that for sure. Actually, I guess I could just make that configure test unconditional. It'll fail on non-x86 hardware, but that's no big deal. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5792> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
