Re: kernel mess

While reading (1) further, I bumped this: "Running the mixed setup on a workstation is not recommended, because iptables, the XFS filesystem, non-free NVidia and ATI binary drivers do currently not support it." 'mixed setup' there is 32bit apps with 64bit kernels. So this might concern me direct

I upgraded my cpu couple weeks ago, from a sempron2600+ to a 3400+ (754). The thing is, 3400+ has the x86_64 instruction set. My current stock kernel 2.6.8-2-k7 sees the sse3 instruction set (listed as 'pni' below), but does not report x86_64 (i'm not sure if it doesn't see the x86_64 or if it simp
