My machine is a Montvale. vendor : GenuineIntel arch : IA-64 family : 32 model : 1 model name : Dual-Core Intel(R) Itanium(R) Processor 9150N revision : 1 archrev : 0 features : branchlong, 16-byte atomic ops cpu number : 0 cpu regs : 4 cpu MHz : 1594.661 itc MHz : 399.163750 BogoMIPS : 3182.59 siblings : 4 physical id: 0 core id : 0 thread id : 0 But I am still on Linux rx2660 4.19.0-5-mckinley #1 SMP Debian 4.19.37-5 (2019-06-19) ia64 GNU/Linux Is there anything I can do to help this investigation? One question (a rather basic one): What is the right configuration for ‘atp’ on an machine with ia64 debian ports? When I run ‘atp update’ I get the following error: Get:1 http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports sid InRelease [24.2 kB] Err:1 http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports sid InRelease The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 5A88D659DCB811BB Reading package lists...
