These are the settings im looking for;

CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-march=i686 -O3 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="-march=i686 -O3 -pipe"

I want to know hwere they are so I can compile software that matches my computer hardware.

those are stored in your shell. just type the above in and you will have it. and i suggest you read a bash-howto-for-beginers.

yea i set those things in
~/.bashrc
export CFLAGS=' '
then just
export CXXFLAGS=$CFLAGS
you can also go

Code:

if [ `whoami` = "root" ]; then
  export CFLAGS='    '
  export CXXFLAGS=$CFLAGS

so they are set when you "su"
some packages don't pick these up and for some packages you have to
unset CFLAGS
unset CXXFLAGS
or they will turn out broken
