It wasn't me. You can't prove anything.

SUSE platform Identification

Note the first command below produces i586 and the second command produces i686 and i386. Trust me when I tell you that this inconsistency is a pain in the ass. RPMs use the fist and many system scripts use the second.

>$ cat /etc/SuSE-release
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (i586)
VERSION = 11
PATCH LEVEL = 0

>$ uname -a
Linux dtx-e04 2.6.27.19-5-pae #1 SMP 2009-02-28 04:40:21 +0100 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
