Re: compiling atlas2 on athlon



Hello,

This reminds me, atlas doesn't build on PPC.  debian/config.expect needs
the attached patch, and then it fails while trying to compile
tune/sysinfo/Linux/muladd.c: the compiler eats up all available memory
(96 MB) and swap (135 MB), then X crashes and boots me back to gdm!

It's such a little file too, maybe it's trying to unroll some recursion
and infinite looping?  I haven't really looked into it.

It would be nice to get this working, I know my 160 MHz 603e can go
faster than the 13 MFlops it gets with blas1. :-)

Zeen,

-Adam P.
