What's the best optimisation for the Athlon64? Because it has SSE2 which is presumably what the P4 build is optimised for.

You get this using the gcc compilers:

  GCC Documentation said:
-march=cpu-type

pentium4

Intel Pentium4 CPU with MMX, SSE and SSE2 instruction set support.

athlon-4, athlon-xp, athlon-mp

Improved AMD Athlon CPU with MMX, 3dNOW!, enhanced 3dNOW! and full SSE instruction set support.

k8, opteron, athlon64, athlon-fx

AMD K8 core based CPUs with x86-64 instruction set support. (This supersets MMX, SSE, SSE2, 3dNOW!, enhanced 3dNOW! and 64-bit instruction set extensions.)

I haven't tried to compile it myself foy my Athlon64 yet. I will probably have time to do that some day this week.

I have been using PearPC since the first public release now and I am still very happy with it.

Now, after having installed Panther, I tried to install Mandrake Linux 9.1 PPC - twice, without success.

Everything runs well up to the point, the machine needs to be rebooted at the end of the installation. After reboot, PearPC keeps telling me there's no bootable partition and I have tried every single partition available (in 'select' mode).

I have partitioned the 6GB hard disk image into two partitions under Panther. The first 3GB I left empty (free space) and the second was partitioned as HFS Extended. Then, I began installing Mandrake and let it partition automatically. There was no obvious problem during the installation. So this leads me to the question: What do I have to do in order to be able boot Mandrake Linux?

Any help would be appreciated.

BTW, I also get these artifacts with the latest trunk 0.2pre version (optimized for P4).

Huh, the theme files are .dmg's , I try putting them in an iso file and than setting the ISO file as a mounted CDROM drive and yet , it wont wont..any idea?

Just try to mount it again, mine didn't work the first time either. Also, you might need shapeshifter for some themes.

Copy the contents of the "CD" to your "hard drive", then try installing from there. I noticed this too...things don't like to install from the "CD".

WillVG, what exactly is this dmg you're trying to convert to iso, and what're trying to do with it?

    • Err more info required... Are you using the built-in VPN client? PowerShell > Batch. Either way, the script will most likely use rasdial.
    • The viewing figures in season 2 plummeted after 1 of the main characters died in season 2 episode 1. I think hbo is regretting listening to him so they got rid of him.
    • Google Workspace now lets you use custom AI Gems directly in Docs, Gmail, and more by Paul Hill Google Workspace users can now access Gems from the side panel of Google Docs, Slides, Sheets, Drive, and Gmail. Previously, Gems could only be accessed from the Gemini app directly. For anyone not familiar with Gems, they’re a more advanced feature in Gemini where you can make your own chatbots, powered by Gemini, with custom instructions. If you’re interested in learning more about them, check out my editorial from April, where I argue custom AI bots are the best thing about generative AI and how to create your own bots. The decision to make Gems available across Google Workspace has the potential to significantly speed up people’s workflows if they’ve started using Gems already. If you’ve never made a Gem, Google has several pre-made ones including a Brainstormer, Writing editor, Coding partner, and Learning guide. Google Workspace users can leverage Gems in an almost infinite number of ways. For example, imagine if you’re a teacher in whatever country and you have to make lesson plans for your class that must follow a certain structure, you can use natural language to program a gem to expect certain inputs from you (such as grade, subject, topic etc) and get an output that follows the required guidelines. If you’re a journalist, you could create a gem to quickly strip out the key bits of news from a press release or if you’re a student you can create a bot to break down complicated subjects into something easier to understand. The possibilities are nearly endless and now the Gems you make are even more accessible. Google mentioned that Gems can be accessed via the side panel of all supported Workspace applications and can be used across Workspace capabilities including @ mentioning, accessing files and folders, and more. If you need to create a Gem, you’ll still need to do that on the Gemini website. To get started with Gemini in Google Workspace, just click the “Ask Gemini” (spark button) in the top-right corner. Google said that the Gems feature rollout is an extended rollout which means it might take more than 15 days to get the feature. Admins out there do not need to do anything and there are no specific admin controls in the side panel for Gems or Gemini.
    • Microsoft changes hit Teams Android devices: Disable Entra ID policy to restore sign-in by Paul Hill As part of its Secure Future Initiative, Microsoft has deployed a new Entra ID Conditional Access policy targeting Device Code Flow authentication. Unfortunately, it has led some Microsoft Teams-certified Android devices (Teams Rooms on Android, Teams Phones, Teams Panels, and Teams Displays) to be logged out and signing back in can be a bit fiddly so guidance has been shared. Microsoft said that it shared previous guidance which explained how to exclude Android devices, but it seems some admins didn’t catch this as many devices were not excluded and have been signed out. It’s important to realize that this is not a bug, it’s a security feature. However, the move could have been better communicated. To sign the devices back in, you can do so manually. However, if the devices are remote you’ll need to follow these steps: By disabling the “Block device code flow” policy in step 1, it will change everything back to how it was before Microsoft decided to enable it to boost security. This will allow you to get those affected Android devices logged back in again. Also pay special attention to step 2 which says you might need to reboot your device three times. Once you have your Android devices logged in again, it’s probably a good idea to follow Microsoft’s previous guidance and add these to an exclusion list before re-enabling the “Block device code flow” policy. Microsoft recommends only allowing DCF where it’s absolutely necessary and then blocking it elsewhere. The best thing to do is to add your Teams Android device to the exclusion list - this will allow these devices to operate normally, while boosting overall security. If you’re an admin and have been impacted by this, be sure to take proactive measures to avoid disruptions in the future.
