Yes, it can get confusing: uname -s uname -m uname -p ---------------------------------------- Intel Q9400 (Core2 Quad): FreeBSD amd64 amd64 GNU/kFreeBSD x86_64 amd64 Linux x86_64 unknown 32bit os (same processor): FreeBSD ? (untested) ? GNU/kFreeBSD i686 i386 GNU/Linux i686 unknown ---------------------------------------- Intel pentium 4: FreeBSD ? (untested) ? GNU/kFreeBSD i686 i386 GNU/Linux i686 unknown ---------------------------------------- > > > As far as I know, 64 bit linux/freebsd/kfreebsd use the same > > > distributions ("amd64") for both Intel and AMD processors. > > Same for official FreeBSD AMD64.

The official 64bit OS name is "amd64" for FreeBSD, GNU/kFreeBSD and Linux. However, uname -m gives differing results and depends on the version of the running OS, not the real underlying processor; A 64bit processor can run a 32bit OS.
