I have an intel core2 duo (currently in 32 bit mode x86).
Is there any reason why I should not set the following use flags.

mmx, sse, sse2, ssse3

The last one would be a local flag for mplayer.

proc/cpu indicates I have this functionality.

flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov
pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe nx lm
constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts pni monitor ds_cpl vmx est tm2
ssse3 cx16 xtpr lahf_lm

thanks,
allan
