"cmov was a 686 instruction. 586 builds will work fine on the C3." --
I understand that "cmov" is OPTIONAL i686 instruction. In the case that software will follow i686 specification, it will use CMOV instructions only when presented in the CPU. CPU has a flag that it indicates support of CMOV instruction (check cat /proc/cpuinfo for example). I understand that this is problem of design of gcc or clib or something like that and Ubuntu cannot do too much about it. -- VIA C3 processor in Ubuntu Edgy 6.10 https://launchpad.net/bugs/59338 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
