Package: distributed-net Followup-For: Bug #235152
Dear James, In response to your email on the debian-powerpc mailing list, I briefly tested the package. During configuration, I exited the menu as soon as possible, however this did not seem to impair the capacity of the program to run. I started it with /usr/bin/dnetc -ini /etc/distributed-net.conf -inbase /var/lib/distributed-net/buff-in -outbase /var/lib/distributed-net/buff-out I have the same error message as the above bug report: [Nov 30 00:30:58 UTC] Automatic processor type detection did not recognize the processor (tag: "PPC970FX, altivec supported") The program did not segfault, however it is eating 90% of my cpu. But I remind you that I did not configure it, nor tried to understand what it is suppose to do. I attached a log to this bug report. I hope it can help you to decide wether to close it or not.
