|
|
ac_sources-2.4.22-ac4, smp, pentium 4,
I notice that when i
emerge xfree
the compiler is using -march=pentium3 when I have -march=pentium4 specified in /etc/make.conf?
Any ideas? |

Have you tried env-update?
I'm a noob too, so I may be wrong... |

in the xfree ebuild .. if u see it is mentioned to replace the pentium4 with a pentium3 for compatibility reasons !!
If u just wanna freak out then edit the ebuild for ur installation and remove that line !!
See if xfree works for u !, i wanted to do the same but i had to got my pc running in least time ! so i dint try that out !!
Maybe it might just work for u, eh !! BE SURE ! if u get crachs or ur xfree is borked, just replace the orignal value and recompile xfree !! ..
Well that shud be it !
Bye,
Jassi |

In the xfree ebuild:
Code: |
# Should fix bug #4189. gcc-3.x have problems with -march=pentium4
# and -march=athlon-tbird
replace-flags "-march=pentium4" "-march=pentium3"
replace-flags "-march=athlon-tbird" "-march=athlon"
|
In other words, the xfree maintainers have decided to not allow -march=pentium4 due to stability reasons. |
