Greetings! Remember this old post? Well, things are just about done with atlas now. Problem is, potato ldso searches only ix86 and ix86/mmx, where x is correctly chosen according to the running processor, but mmx is the only subdirectory searched on athlon, p3, p2, k6 ... Any suggestions? Than

Greetings, and thanks! I've been using the 2.2 series with xmm patches. I take it then the analogous flags are: "xmm", and "26". Correct (see setup.c)? ldso will know to look in these subdirs on such a kernel? What then to do with the standard package? Will 2.4 become the Debian default soon

Greetings! This is a good question, and I'd like to solicit the feedback of likely atlas users on this. 1) Would you prefer the package to a) install the best binary for your system b) install all binaries appropriate to you arch under the appropriate /usr/lib/??? director
