i ran
# uname -a
& got the following result

2.6.18-164.11.1.el5 #1 SMP Wed Jan 20 07:32:21 EST 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

64 bit OS will show you something like x64 OR x86_64

| Posted by crazyaboutlinux, 04-29-2010, 05:59 AM | | In order to find whether the processor is 32bit or 64 bit in Linux, use the command
[root@server1 ~]# getconf LONG_BIT
32
Also you can use
[root@server1 ~]# uname -i
i386

If you use see i386/i486/i586/i686 it is a 32 bit kernel. x86_64 GNU/Linux indicates that you've a 64bit Linux kernel running.
