As discussed with the Ubuntu developers, it appears that this could be fixed by adding -mtune=generic32 to the compiler defaults, to avoid generating code that includes the undocumented NOPL instruction. This would restore compatibility with at least some single-chip architectures such as recent

Ubuntu doesn't install on the OLPC anyway. It runs a very hacked Fedora kernel. I really wouldn't worry about the hordes of Ubuntu running OLPC users. There is a Debian build that does run and there is an old version of Ubuntu based on the stock kernel. It is devices such as the Viglen MPC-L and

Actually, the proper way to refuse to upgrade would be to follow what Debian did when they bumped the minimal platform requirement on SPARC. IIRC there was a preinst maintainer script segment that checked the machine type and exited dpkg with an error. Doing this would be the only totally

Bear in mind that dropping support for i586 also means that Ubuntu cannot install on the OLPC and that most thin client hardware meant for for LTSP won't be able to run on Ubuntu either, given how the chipsets used in thin client hardware tends to be i586-compatible. As such, I honestly think that
