Hi all,
what is the minimal suitable CPU type for openSUSE Tumbleweed (I know that i586 is deprecated / less supported, but I guess there is still a "minimal viable target system" for it)?
I updated a Pentium-M (Dothan, probably) based Toughbook CF-51 and after finding that I need "rodata=off" kernel parameter for the kernel to even boot, it fails miserably later in userspace apparently (it just hangs).
So before I'm filing bug reports, the question is if this is still supposed to work.
You'll definitely need a CPU with SSE2 support.
That's just bullshit. I have here a Tumbleweed 20220308 on an Athlon XP (SSE1 only). Granted, Mesa does not run because of SSE2 shenanigans, but it can do basic Xorg with nouveau (how else could I investigate that Mesa didn't work...).
