If not, then do a $ emerge --info and see if the useflag output from that command includes mmx. If not, you've probably got a typo of some sort in your make.conf since the mmx useflag is not profile-masked on the amd64 (use.mask under your /etc/make.profile symlink). > Is this a bug in equery or is it that i can't set mmx on an Athlon64 ? Might be, but probably not ;) Regards, Patrick B�rjesson -- / () The ASCII Ribbon Campaign - against HTML Email \ /\ and proprietary formats.
