I am confused on what suse did when it identified the hardware but the machine is a Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 3.20GHz.

uname -a comes back as 2.6.13-15-smp #1 SMP Tue Sep 13 14:56:15 UTC 2005 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

perl --version This is perl, v5.8.7 built for x86_64-linux-thread-multi

I have been able to insall other perl modules without issue but when i try to install HTML-Parser all versions after 2.25 i get the following error when runnin make.

cc -c -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -DTHREADS_HAVE_PIDS -DDEBUGGING -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O2 -fmessage-length=0 -Wall -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -g -Wall -pipe -DVERSION=\"3.55\" -DXS_VERSION=\"3.55\" -fPIC "-I/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/CORE" -DMARKED_SECTION Parser.c Parser.c:1: error: CPU you selected does not support x86-64 instruction set make: *** [Parser.o] Error 1

I tried things like add -m32 to the CCFLAGS but no luck.

Thank you
Michael
