opensuse-welcome uses Qt WebEngine, which requires SSE2 and CMOV (https://github.com/v8/v8/blob/dc712da548c7fb433caed56af9a021d964952728/src/ codegen/ia32/assembler-ia32.cc#L129). If those are not available, it simply doesn't start properly.
Ideas on how to address this: - Don't install opensuse-welcome on such hardware (probably needs libzypp feature)? - Don't start opensuse-welcome on such hardware? - Just raise the minimum hardware requirements to SSE2 + CMOV, at least for desktop installs?
## Observation
openQA test in scenario opensuse-Tumbleweed-NET-i586-install_only@pentium3 fails in [first_boot](https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/1665203/modules/first_boot/ steps/2)
## Test suite description set HDDSIZE=40 as required for ppc64le (failed w/o it on https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/390330#step/install_and_reboot/21
## Reproducible
Fails since (at least) Build [20210310](https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/1664163)
## Expected result
Last good: (unknown) (or more recent)
## Further details
Always latest result in this scenario: [latest](https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/ latest?arch=i586&distri=opensuse&flavor=NET&machine=pentium3&test=install_onl y&version=Tumbleweed)
AMD 32-bit CPUs never got SSE2 capabilities. Apart from Qt Webengine related stuff, see also bug 1183493, most tumbleweed software is still usable on such hardware. The question is if this testcase makes sense for the i586 Tumbleweed architecture/port - as long as it is executed on a CPU which does not support SSE2 it will always fail (or maybe some day Qt Webengine would be compiled without generation of SSE2 instructions). But I think a CPU without SSE2 support, Pentium-III or Athlon-XP, makes sense for OpenQA tests, because when SSE2 instructions creep in to more essential parts of the distribution it will make Tumbleweed i586 unusable on most real x86_32 CPUs (all except Pentium-4) which would probably impact its users seriously. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
