All the things I read when doing research on getting Linux running
mentioned i586 as the designator for modern PC-type chipsets. Looking
around in KDE's start menu, I saw the KDE Control Center. I have been
using the Mandrake Control Center so I decided to see what the KDE one
looked like.

Ok, thanks. So while I downloaded the i586 distro's and installed them,
the control center is just recognizing my machine architecture as i686.
So I'm really running the non-optimized i586?
