Re: question about altivec registers

There is a flag for that purpose. You should look into the Altivec
environment on Motorola's Web site, or at www.altivec.org

I have a question about using the altivec registers on a G4 Macintosh
running linuxppc.  Will there be any conflicts.  I don't expect any
kernal support, but can I be confident that the kernal will not touch
any of the altivec registers.  Any info will be greatly appreciated.
