I have got an Notebook whose CPU is 64bit.The Notebook has an CentOS installation. Now I want to find out if this CentOS is 32bit or 64bit.How can I check this?
uname -a
gives something with ....i686 i686 i386...."
What does that mean?Does that refer to the hardware or the CentOS OS? An 32bit CentOS can be installed on a 64bit hardware!I am interested in the OS capability not of the hardware!

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am a little confused about the Debian installer. I chose the i386 release of Debian 6, downloaded the ISO and installed in a Core2-Quad with 4Gb of RAM. That lead me to a System with a 64Bit Kernel and a 32Bit environment (is that the correct word for it?). Why would the installer chose to install a 64Bit Kernel, even if i386 installation media was explicitly selected? Though it is easy to change the kernel manually after the installation is complete, I really would like to know if there is a good technical reason for selecting a 64Bit Kernel in this case.

I'm kind of new to this, so I don't really know if I could substitute the python version, or know how to make it available by using short commands such as python or easy_install.
View 1 Replies View RelatedOn my 2 year old laptop I have an Intel Celeron Processor (The one made in June something of 2008) and last night I finally decided to tear it apart. My reasoning was, that I am going to buy a new laptop soon (I want a 64 bit system ) and lo and behold, my celeron processor has 2 cores on the chip itself. I ran several software tests on it in Linux (mostly just profiling and etc.) then I ran a full diagnostic on it and turns out that the second core was never used in any of it. So I looked over it through a magnifying glass and found a pin that was blocking a section from passing anything to this other core. I pulled the pin out and popped my processor in my laptop. Windows refused to boot at first except into Safe Mode because of a hardware change. It was there that my PC was re-evaluated and while previously I had a 3.5 out of 5.0 according to Vista, I know have a 4.1/5.0 thus Aero now was enabled. I then tried something crazy, I popped in the Arch64 net-install disk and VIOLA!!! It loaded and installed Arch64 successfully. Thus, I converted what was a 32 bit processor into a now 64 bit processor by (carefully) removing a pin. After doing research it seems other people found this out too and am wondering to myself, if Intel created this cheap of a 64bit processor, why didn't they market it like that and/or use this as their low-end 64 bit processor? It's all very fishy to me and I really don't know what to make of it.
As an update, I have re-soldered the pin on and Windows still sees the 2nd core. Arch64 however refuses to boot because it's trying to boot 64bit instructions on a 32bit processor again. It seems that since Windows saw that it was there, it has loaded a new driver (some weird "Intel Blah blah blah" [didn't write it down and don't feel like rebooting, sorry] ) that wasn't loaded before. It's still running Vista 32bit (NOT going to upgrade), but it still sees that the other core is there.
My printer wont work on 64bit ubuntu, no drivers. Just for 32bit so I don't know all the technical stuff to get it to work if there was a way to, but anyways. I tried to run ubuntu 32bit and I have a lot of boot problems. Sometimes it will boot but most of the time it wont. I have to hard reboot every time 6 or 7 times just to get it to boot. I was wondering what could be the problem. For some reason I was thinking maybe it was my hard drive being to large (1.5 terabyte) its been a while since I've tried but I don't remember there being any error messages just a black screen. I've waited up to around 5 hours for one boot so I know I am giving it enough time. Is there a fix to make 32bit ubuntu use a large hard drive like that. I know there is one for the ram but I love ubuntu and would like to have a stable system and use my printer at the same time.

The script prompts for a hostname. Hostnames are localhost.localdomain. Now, I want the script to check to see if they put localdomain and if they did, not to add the domain to the /etc/sysconfig/network, but just what they entered. So say the user inputs:

After sifting through numerous apt-get apt-cache apt-file tutorials I still can't find a command to check if a package is installed via the terminal command/line.
I know there must be some way to do it.
Say I want to check if any package from the libavcodec*.deb family is installed how could I do this without a gui eg synaptic?
The problem relates only to the configuration of services in text mode ("setup", part of the setuptool package). The setuptool package is "setuptool-1.19.4-2.fc9.x86_64". There is no "Services configuration" menu when I start "setup". The tools listed in the setup window are:
- Authentication configuration
- Firewall configuration
- Keyboard configuration
[code].....
IMHO, the reason I don't have a services configuration tool is the missing services configuration files "98services" and/or 99"services" (or something like that) from the setuptool's configuration directory. (Please correct me if I am wrong.) Can someone please let me know what information should be in those two files, and what are the correct file names? Without them I cannot change the services on this computer. (FYI, the GUI (system-config-services) works, however, I need to run this computer in text mode.)
since I am on a Dell inspiron 1545 laptop, being able to display my battery charge is critical. After some extensive googling, I found I need a command 'acpi', which does not exist on my computer. I cannot seem to find it in the packages database; the closest thing being 'acpi-support' apt-get install also can't find it.
I tried cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state, but that only shows me if the battery is discharging or charging and doesn't give me an actual percentage.
Like i'm curious what version of wine i have installed...What are my current ati drivers installed...If wine isn't 1.2 or 1.3 how do i update it from command line?really any insight into this process would help its not absolutely critical to know but i've been looking around and haven't found informationOr some references to good articles to become a command line guru would be cool as well.

However the one thing that is putting me off is that I have heard if your PC has 1GB of RAM or less then 64bit won't run very good because it uses more RAM than 32bit. (my PC has 1GB) So the question is: Does 64bit use more RAM than 32bit?
