You lack understanding here as well. There have been, over the years, around a _dozen_ 64 bit versions of Debian Gnu/Linux, not just one, including: Alpha, MIPS, HPPA, PowerPC64, SPARC, IA-64, and x86-64. See: http://www.debian.org/ports/#released What you think of as "64 bit Debian" is strictly/merely the x86-64 (AMD64) port, first released in April 2007, not quite 4 years old, making it the _youngest_ of all Debian 64 bit ports. The Alpha port is the oldest full 64 bit Debian port, first released in March 1999, or ~8 years earlier. Unlike with some architectures, the Debian Alpha release was 64 bit from the beginning, as Alpha processors were clean sheet 64 bit designs from the ground up. There was never any 32 bit baggage as with IA32, MIPS, SPARC, PowerPC, HP PA-RISC, etc. In fact, SPARC chips have been fully 64 bit CPUs for at least 15 years, but the Debian distribution has mostly 32 bit SPARC packages, even though the kernel is 64 bit. And Debian SPARC shipped for the first time in 2.1, same as Alpha. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

More than a mere "technical" decision (both architectures -i386 and amd64- will work under 64-bits machines), choosing between the two is something that is completely up to the user's preferences as there are many other aspects to consider beyond going A or B. If in doubt, better ask here or in forums. The problem is in knowing whether a particular CPU is compatible with the 64 bit version of the operating system, or whether it requires the 32 bit version. Not a problem at all, at least if you know where to find the information. And most of the people do know :-). For those who don't, they can ask here. For example, the Pentium 4, from memory, is a 64 bit CPU, but is incompatible with the 64 bit version of Debian Linux, and requires to run the 32 bit version; the i386 version, that is incompatible with i386's. It does not work that way. First, you have to know the exact processor model and number (you can fecth it by running 'grep -i "model name" /proc/cpuinfo'). Then, you can go to the manufacture's page and perform a search for that specific model: Intel: http://ark.intel.com/Default.aspx AMD: http://products.amd.com/pages/ After that, the specs page for your concrete model will tell you if the processor is 64-bits capable or not. That's the only way to ensure about the possibility of running a 64-bits within your hardware. I can ask a question - does the I3, I5 and I7 range of CPU's require to run the 32 bit version of Debian Linux, or, can they run the 64 bit version, and, the question might (or, might not) get answered on the list, and then, a couple of weeks, or, a few weeks, later, along comes someone else, who asks the same question, and, so-on, ad nauseum, with the question getting repeatedly asked, because the information is not included in the documentation. Yes, I know what you mean, but the "up-to-date" source of information in this case is the manufacturer's site. Debian wiki cannot automatically "sync" with each processor's manufacturer site to fetch the latest available information on the latest processors (unless Debian reaches an agreement with every manufacturer to do it so) so going to Intel or AMD page is the most accurate way to go and that is what should be adviced on Debia'ns wiki or Releases Notes. Inclusion of such information in the documentation, means that people who want to know the information, do not need to ask it on mailing lists, and, therefore, can reduce the derision on the mailing list. I already explained why it should be possible but it would require the collaboration of every processor's manufacturers... unless their databases are completely open and Debian can query to them directly, which could be another option to explore. If my memory is correct, for a computer to include 8GB of RAM, that is addressable by the CPU, the CPU would necessarily be a 64 bit CPU, to be able to address that much RAM. Yes, but there is also 32-bits PAE kernel that will allow you to use up to 64 GiB of ram in your 64-bits CPU. You can choose what to use: 32-bits or 64-bits OS. But, apparently, not all 64 bit CPU's are compatible with the 64 bit version of Debian Linux, as (from what I understand) the 64 bit version of Debian Linux is only compatible with a small subset of the 64 bit CPU's. I cannot follow you here. Debian's 64-bits kernel is compatible with every CPU that is 64-bits capable. Can you please explain your point a bit? The web page at http://www.debian.org/releases/squeeze/ states " The following computer architectures are supported in this release: * 32-bit PC (i386) * 64-bit PC (amd64) " The web page at http://www.debian.org/ports/amd64/ states " Current Status AMD64 has been an officially supported Debian architecture since the release of Debian 4.0 (etch). The port consists of a kernel for all AMD 64bit CPUs with AMD64 extension and all Intel CPUs with EM64T extension, and a common 64bit userspace. " Thus, from the Debian official documentation, it is made clear that Intel 64 bit CPU's that do not have the "EM64T extension" (whatever that is and does), have no 64 bit version of Debian Linux available for them. Therefore, it is not simply an issue of whether a CPU is a 64 bit CPU and is therefore compatible with Debian 64 bit Linux; it is made clear from the official Debian documentation,

Not a problem at all, at least if you know where to find the information. And most of the people do know :-). For those who don't, they can ask here. > For example, the Pentium 4, from memory, is a 64 bit CPU, but is > incompatible with the 64 bit version of Debian Linux, and requires to > run the 32 bit version; the i386 version, that is incompatible with > i386's. It does not work that way. First, you have to know the exact processor model and number (you can fecth it by running 'grep -i "model name" /proc/cpuinfo'). Then, you can go to the manufacture's page and perform a search for that specific model: Intel: http://ark.intel.com/Default.aspx AMD: http://products.amd.com/pages/ After that, the specs page for your concrete model will tell you if the processor is 64-bits capable or not. That's the only way to ensure about the possibility of running a 64-bits within your hardware. > I can ask a question - does the I3, I5 and I7 range of CPU's require to > run the 32 bit version of Debian Linux, or, can they run the 64 bit > version, and, the question might (or, might not) get answered on the > list, and then, a couple of weeks, or, a few weeks, later, along comes > someone else, who asks the same question, and, so-on, ad nauseum, with > the question getting repeatedly asked, because the information is not > included in the documentation. Yes, I know what you mean, but the "up-to-date" source of information in this case is the manufacturer's site. Debian wiki cannot automatically "sync" with each processor's manufacturer site to fetch the latest available information on the latest processors (unless Debian reaches an agreement with every manufacturer to do it so) so going to Intel or AMD page is the most accurate way to go and that is what should be adviced on Debia'ns wiki or Releases Notes. > Inclusion of such information in the documentation, means that people > who want to know the information, do not need to ask it on mailing > lists, and, therefore, can reduce the derision on the mailing list. I already explained why it should be possible but it would require the collaboration of every processor's manufacturers... unless their databases are completely open and Debian can query to them directly, which could be another option to explore. > If my memory is correct, for a computer to include 8GB of RAM, that is > addressable by the CPU, the CPU would necessarily be a 64 bit CPU, to be > able to address that much RAM. Yes, but there is also 32-bits PAE kernel that will allow you to use up to 64 GiB of ram in your 64-bits CPU. You can choose what to use: 32-bits or 64-bits OS. > But, apparently, not all 64 bit CPU's are compatible with the 64 bit > version of Debian Linux, as (from what I understand) the 64 bit version > of Debian Linux is only compatible with a small subset of the 64 bit > CPU's.

This is not a Debian issue but a microprocessor/hardware issue. And I still think the list of the 64-bits compatible processors is up to each manufacturer and not the business of every Linux distribution. I agree that a "brief" note explaining each kernel possibilities would be desiderable.

First, IA64 Itanium is alive and well, although market share is lower than Intel would like. Intel sells chips based on both ISAs, x86-64 (Core, Xeon) and IA64 (Itanium) but into different markets. Second, from the Itanium 2 Montecito core forward, hardware support for the IA32 instruction set was removed and replaced by a software emulator with much better performance (though few, if any, customers use it). The current IA64 chip, the Itanium 9300 (Tukwila) series was released in early 2010. The top model, the 9350 has: 4 cores @ 1.73/1.86 GHz (unimpressive freq, but can execute up to 6 instructions/clock vs 2-3 for Core) 24 MB on die L3 cache 2-way HyperThreading (8 threads per chip) 2 DDR3 memory controllers 34 GB/s QuickPath Interconnect 96 GB/s aggregate It's a very modern chip with serious performance, especially on floating point workloads, as has always been the case with Itanium.

Re: which version for intel chipset 64bit
Could the Release Notes include a component that matches CPU model with appropriate distribution version? Many 64 bit CPU's exist, but it can be difficult to determine whether they should have the i386 (which no longer works with the i386, from the Release Notes, and so should be renamed) or the amd64 version of the distribution, installed. Some people may know the answer, but, for the rest of us, we are just left in the dark. For example the (relatively) new range of CPU's (which are prbably now out of date), that are the I range, eg, I3, I5, I7, are (I believe) 64 bit CPU's, but the Release Notes do not indicate whether these should have the 32 bit or the 64 bit version of the districbution, installed. So, it would be useful for the Release Notes to include a list of CPU's, and show which is the appropriate version of the distribution, for each CPU model. -- Bret Busby Armadale West Australia ..
