I use "cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep 'model name'", to find the model name 
and look it up on Wikipedia or Google for the manufacturer data sheet. 
64-bit support is often called "AMD64", or "x86-64" by non-AMD 
manufacturers.

If the "flags" section contains "lm", your CPU has 64-bit support, but 
might be IA64 (Itanium, Intel's 64-bit server architecture) rather than 
AMD64 (which Intel itself now uses). I find it easier to Google for the 
model as described above.

Most consumer desktop CPUs manufactured in the last five years have 
amd64 support, including, as far as I know, all Intel Core 2 Intel 
processors (since 2006), even the budget models with Pentium or Celeron 
branding. Some Atom CPUs support 64-bit, but not the earliest models.

Kind regards,
