I tried your repository (http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/ashigabou/openSUSE_10.2/) with two machines running openSUSE 10.2: 1. AMD Athlon desktop 2. Pentium-M laptop. The repository works with Yast (installation program). The prebuilt packages work on both machines. They especially work with matplotlib from the http://repos.opensuse.org/science/ repository. (I didn't try timers and testers.) Building Atlas succeeds on the Pentium-M (2). On the Athlon (1) the sanity checks fail. The resulting Atlas RPM is missing two links: /usr/lib/atlas/sse2/libblas.so.3 -> /usr/lib/atlas/sse2/libblas.so.3.0 /usr/lib/atlas/sse2/liblapack.so.3 -> /usr/lib/atlas/sse2/liblapack.so.3.0 When I try your one line examples, I see a nine times speedup with Atlas. Thank you for your efforts! You provide an easy way to install Atlas on Suse for the first time. Regards, Eike. PS.: I still think you should contribute to the http://repos.opensuse.org/science/ repository. Then this quite comprehensive repository would get decent Blas and Atlas too. _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
