What I am saying is that uname(2) does not reliably tell you whether you have a 64-bit kernel underneath unless you have other sources of information. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
