Well, I guess that was a fluke. The next time I booted into Linux The drive is not accesible, nor for severalmore tries. If I try to access the drive from the icon on the desktop, it waits a long while, and then gives me an error message saying that the drive could not be mounted read/write, but will mount it read only. Then the error message subscripts that there were in/out errors, and the file system could not be determined. This is the same disk that was recognised the one time.

cpu_family

cpu_family(3alleg4)						  Allegro manual					       cpu_family(3alleg4)

NAME

       cpu_family - Contains the CPU type. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       extern int cpu_family;

DESCRIPTION

       Contains the Intel type, where applicable. Allegro defines the following CPU family types:

	  CPU_FAMILY_UNKNOWN  - The type of processor is unknown
	  CPU_FAMILY_I386     - The processor is an Intel-compatible 386
	  CPU_FAMILY_I486     - The processor is an Intel-compatible 486
	  CPU_FAMILY_I586     - The processor is a Pentium or equivalent
	  CPU_FAMILY_I686     - The processor is a Pentium Pro, II, III
				or equivalent
	  CPU_FAMILY_ITANIUM  - The processor is an Itanium processor
	  CPU_FAMILY_POWERPC  - The processor is a PowerPC processor
	  CPU_FAMILY_EXTENDED - The processor type needs to be read
				from the cpu_model

       You can read this variable after you have called check_cpu() (which is automatically called by allegro_init()).
