I have always had the best luck with the
Helix Code install..
Although I have installed from sources and rom rpm's
as for the PPRO
if you build from source then its a non factor
as the compiler will do the correct thing for your hardware
if you decide to install from rpm.... then
I "think" you will want to get the i586 or i686
although i386 should work.
