> Isn't a P2 i586? I've never gotten a 686 build to work on mine. "Pentium" is a confusing marketing ploy. The original 60mhz Pentiums were indeed i586. "Pentium Pro" (100-120 mhz?), PII, PIII, and P4 are definitely i686. According to... http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-3.3.5/gcc/i386-and-x86_002d64-Options.html#i386-and-x86_002d64-Options "i586 is equivalent to pentium and i686 is equivalent to pentiumpro." If anything, I might be losing out on optimizations by calling PII, PIII, and P4 "i686" in CFLAGS. Anybody have the technical answer on that one? > I'm also not seeing -mmmx as a valid compile option, either on Gentoo > Wiki or the GCC optimization listings.
