I could see it even while booting the machine: with FSB of 100MHz it showed "Athlon 1100MHz", with FSB of 133MHz it shows "AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1700+". Cheers, Renat -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

only because it is on a website does not make it true.
read man gcc. Read the warning, Think about the flags again.
I suffered enough. Thank you.

yes.
My AMD Athlon XP 2000+ was an Athlon Xp 1600, 1500 or Athlon 1200, with
different FSBs

[gentoo-user] cat cpuinfo /CFLAGS - is it realy an XP?
I was told this CPU was an XP by my vendor. Why does it not say in the
model name that it is an XP see cat cpuinfo bellow.
It is currently running redhat and I would like to install Gentoo on it
but I am wondering which optimization flags I should use?
I was hoping
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
would be safe and
CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -m3dnow -msse -mfpmath=sse -mmmx -O3
-pipe -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops
-frerun-cse-after-loop
-frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4 -maccumulate-outgoing-args
-ffast-math
-fprefetch-loop-arrays"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
would be pushing the limit.
Thanks in advance.

yeah. I bet you have a fsb of 100MHZ.
XP needs an FSB of 133MHZ.

Yep It seems to be working as advertised. I guess I have been under utilizing this machine for the last wile. Thanks for all the help. Although I am still interested in knowing if the march can be athlon-xp even when the cpu is not reporting that it is an XP.

I believe my FSB speed is configurable (In the BIOS). Are you saying if I
increase it to 133 cat cpuinfo | grep modelname will give me "model name
: AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1900+" or something similar?

So CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp is Ok regardless or the FSB speed?
