RE: [opensuse-optimize] How about x86_64?
The only difference to the normal rpm's is that ours are compiled mtune=i686. And honestly right now I am even thinking the difference is not that great to justify such a step. We probably should roll only rpm's where we actually do genuinely make a difference, the xorg rpm for instance or any other where we modify something (like prelink). I have seen most increases there without having to roll out dozens of other rpm's.
And then there are already x86_64 compiled rpm's in existence .... the ones we would compile would virtually not make nay difference. We just introduce a probability of incompatibility/bugs.
It's ok for me. I have searched around for optimiziation flag for x86_64, and I havn't find mutch.
2. test and install it on beta4 3. build cd image
That is really the only step really required. I begin do try to make it toaday with beta3. I will be able to dowload beta4 in 2, 3 days, torrent isn't so fast!
4. benchmark
And that one ;)
Of course.
Anyhow .. what are your thoughts?
Currently integrated enhancements * Prelinking * preload kde+OpenOffice * Con Kolivas kernel patches * Some i686 packages * Fonts Optimal Use of Fonts on SuSE I read correctly in b4 are integreted preload and Fonts. So i have in any case to make rpm for prelinking and kernel.

I will be looking at doing an x86_64 single CD install today to help you along.

Well they are not really integrated as such. I should probably change the wording. We have tested them and done some benches. Once the SUPER 1 CD install is done we can possibly call it integrated. Andreas
