I need to do something like this If (sizeof(long) == 8) typedef unsigned int uintxx; else typedef unsigned long uintxx; The problem is that a typedef may not be part of a if/else expression. Is there a defined compiler library constant that I may use for linux gcc compiler. Is there a preprocessor variable I could test? I found this, which does not work with gcc #if (!(defined __LP64__ || defined __LLP64__)||( defined _WIN32 && !defined _WIN64 )) // we are compiling for a 32-bit system typedef unsigned long uintxx; #else // we are compiling for a 64-bit system typedef unsigned int uintxx; #endif

Ubuntu 12.04 32bit or 64bit for my system

Hello All, I have a Toshiba Satellite A105-S4014 with 4gigs RAM and upgraded the processor to a 64bit processor and wanted to know if I should be using the 32 or 64bit version of Ubuntu. I noticed my RAM usage in System Monitor this morning after things felt sluggish was 2.2gigs out of 2.9gigs. I rebooted and then checked and it was 320mb RAM without anything open. I am wondering if the 32bit would work better with my system or if you all had any input or tips. Thank you.

How to tell if the system is 32bit or 64bit?

Suppose somebody gives you a system without any stickers/label/product information and you are able to boot a 2.6.26 (standard 32-bit) kernel on it. Now if would like to know whether this system supports 64-bit (SMP) kernel or not, how can you find that out? One way is to install a 64 bit kernel and then try to boot from it. If machines crashes/hangs => Your system is 32-bit If machines boots successfully => Your system does support 64-bit Another way is to go to BIOS and try to see the CPU information. However is there any other way by which you can tell without installing the 64-bit kernel or going into the BIOS?

Hi! What would be more preferable to install on my machine? I've read somewhere that if my CPU supports 64-bit, I should prefer that over 32-bit. What are the distinct advantages if I do?

32bit or 64bit? 12.04.1 or 12.10?

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/32...ld_I_Choose.3F http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop According to the help section, I should choose the 64 bit version of Ubuntu unless I have a reason not to, but according to the download page, the 32 bit version is recommended. Assuming I have a 64-bit processor and less than 4 gigabytes of RAM, which of these should I choose? I know RAM isn't the only memory that counts toward the 4 gigabyte limit, but I don't know how to tell how much other addressable memory is installed. I only have 2.8 gibibytes of RAM, so I'm not sure if it matters anyway. In addition, 12.04.1 will be supported a while after 12.10 looses support, but 12.10 is more recent. Is it better to use the longer supported version, or is it better to use the version with newer features? Do I even need support? Do I even need newer features? I'm the only one using the computer in question, so whether I upgrade to each new version or only upgrade to long-term supported versi

I an going to do a fresh install of the new Xubuntu on my netbook, and I am wondering what will be better for my netbook, the 32-bit or the 64-bit version? My netbook has the Intel Atom N450, 2GB of RAM, and a 60GB SSD. I know the netbook can run the 64-bit version, I am just wondering if it is worth it not having 4+ GB of RAM.

Hey guys, ** Preamble ** My new years resolution will be to try and not use any Microsoft software for a year and hopefully never again. I've toyed with Ubuntu for ages but have never bothered to take the time it takes to learn and master like I have Windows. Due to all of the corporate fiasco's that have occurred and come to public eye as of recently I want to do my part to help bring equality and fairness to the world in the small ways that I know we all can. I realize supporting enormous super corporations is what causes them to exist continually, so I now feel that it's a moral imperative that I learn to use Open Source and community oriented software and products and hopefully contribute to the project as well. I'm also really interested in learning Arduino engineering for small automation projects around the home (huge Zeitgeist Movement supporter here!) in hopes of being able to create small demonstrations to show how open source technologies and automation can brin
