(Yes, I do notice the 'i686' mentioned in the output - this is just an
interesting case simply because some operating systems view this processor as
an i686, some an i586 [ SuSE once recognized it as an i586 -
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Installation_on_Systems_with_Transmeta_Crusoe_Processors
], some an 'enhanced' i586, and some don't know what to make of it... [ I was
previously led to believe that this Processor supported some i686 features, but
not all, and, thus, it was an i586 ] Although I haven't had any real problems
in openSuSE to date using the i686 version of glibc (I've reinstalled it), I
have had random crashes with some i686-only programs on this computer in other
Operating Systems that worked perfectly fine on a 'true' i686)
