In one discussion about linux being faster than freebsd (hah) there was mention that things needed to be re-compiled with FPU support turned on... Does anyone have a set of instructions for doing this? I never know I had to, so I didn't really think about it, I thought it was just one of those things that was handled internally... I know that I'm going to do this on all my machines once I get the chance... I just never knew about this.. Anyone?
