Hi, I'm installing gentoo on a laptot with a N2840.

power management:


mmx is supossed to be supported. But if i run:

Code:
gcc -march=native -Q --help=target -v

mmx is not active.

Can anyone tell if I should or not enabled this as a cpu flag? libvpx is asking me to enable it if i want to use sse2, which is indeed active.

Known issue, appears on gcc < 4.9

Don't worry, just enable mmx, and if you enable sse, even gcc is telling you it won't, it will enable mmx in real.
