Unfortunately, depending on your CFLAGS you might still have incompatible code on your current system. You can still try it but you will likely encounter random process crashes because of invalid opcodes. You can avoid a complete reinstall by changing your CFLAGS to something generic like '-march=3Di686' and remove anything else not supported by both processor families. Then make a `emerge --emptytree world` to recompile all packages. Don't forget to adjust your kernel as well. For your specific CFLAGS, look here: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Safe_Cflags/Intel Hope this helps, Florian Philipp --------------enig88A76A708C0151D3E407C65C Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.16 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk1NekQACgkQqs4uOUlOuU//0ACfV2XoqgllYfVpyaJrWwezvNG1 oYsAni0pUQ4+HGUdDUZqo8LIafXsM1T+ =LRGX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig88A76A708C0151D3E407C65C--
