      Where is this coming from?

      Linux isn’t ditching it. A few distros stopped supporting it.

        Linux kernel dropped i368, i468 and a few i568 architectures, and i redid some investigations. I was wrong sorry. I thought pendium d was a cpu line after the pentium 4 line, and that was the turning point, but its the original pentium line that gets ditched. My mistake ^^

        Most serious distros are stopping their support for 32-bit… Not a few - the most prominent, which most of the others are build from.

          Distros are not linux.

          Linux is the kernel.
