I just reinstalled my gentoo box using gcc 3.0.3 w/Athlon optimization |
| 2 |
turned on. I had to patch a couple apps, mostly just relating to |
| 3 |
includes that weren't defined, or libraries not being linked in. |

|

Anyone with a Athlon or Pentium4 would gain some speed by doing this |
| 6 |
IMO. |

To Who/Where should I post all of my patches? There's not that many, |
| 9 |
maybe 4 or so packages for a GNOME+Sawfish system. I think all of the |
| 10 |
changes I made would not affect a gcc 2.95 system adversly. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
The packages I incounted that had errors were: |
| 13 |
pwdb (needed by PAM) |
| 14 |
netkit-telnet |
| 15 |
nautilus |
| 16 |
nvidia (although it seemed to just be a bash script syntax error not |
| 17 |
related to gcc3) |
| 18 |
I might be forgetting one. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
I let the bootstrap.sh script bootstrap the system including using gcc |
| 21 |
2.95 then I emerge'd gcc 3.0.3 then unmerged the old gcc2.95, fixed my |
| 22 |
/etc/make.conf to include -march=athlon and -mcpu=athlon instead of |
| 23 |
i686. Then I did a emerge system and went from there. Stopping duing |
| 24 |
broken package builds to create a patch file and re-build it. |
