Best is, if you take 64bit :-)

I have a laptop which has an AMD Athlon Neo X2 L335 2.2GHz Dual Core

The handbook choices are: x86, sparc, amd64, ppc, ppc64, alpha,
hppa,
mips, ia64, arm. I'm guessing the x86, but I's like to be sure.
x86 will do for sure.
But you can check
cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "address sizes"
If it shows more than 32 bits (e.g. 48 bits)
then you could use amd64, as well.
AFAIK, 64 is mean stream today.
How much memory do you have installed?
If more than 4G you have to use adm64 to fully use it.
I'd prefer amd64 if possible,
Helmut.
I don't see any address size but when I cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep size I
get casche size 256 KB and clflush size 64. The laptop has 4G of memory.
