There are SSE3 CPUs that fit into 940, AM2 and 939. > well, the x2 thing I wasn't thinking it through and you are right, what I meant to say that so far as I know all S939-X2 are SSE3 capable and rev-E at least as all am2 are so eventually, athlon64-E would be more appropriate (with proper man make.conf explanation) opterons are not easy but it is already kind of advanced cpu so could be expected more knowledge from the user and that he 'eventually' read /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf ... or not (if there were something about sse3) but in any case opteron and additional opteron-E also would do it ... -- João A mensagem foi scaneada pelo sistema de e-mail e pode ser considerada segura.
