bug: knowledge add index-type best failing on linux #3139
I have run q doctor in the affected terminal session
I have run q restart and replicated the issue again
Operating system
Ubuntu
Expected behaviour
User should be able to add a new file to the /knowledge base with Best index type regardless of their machine's operating system
Actual behaviour
/knowledge add <filename> --index-type Best would result in Error: Failed to add: Invalid embedding type 'Best'. Valid options are: fast, best on Linux, even after changing to best (lowercase). The same command works perfectly fine on macOS
Steps to reproduce
/knowledge add <filename> --index-type Best
or /knowledge add <filename> --index-type best
this happened on an arm64 linux installation, and no /knowledge add --index-type fast also yielded the same error. however /knowledge add without specifying index-type worked

Does /knowledge add --index-type fast work?
I was not able to reproduce in version 1.18.1 in Linux.
There were some compatibility issues with Linux Arm arch. Can we verify the CPU arch?
