Hi,
After a lively discussion on #meego
(http://mg.pov.lt/meego-irclog/%23meego.2010-08-11.log.html from 21:17)
I have created a wiki page to further community developmet of a non
SSSE3 Meego build.
http://wiki.meego.com/Devices/nonSSSE3
If you can help in any way or have any comments please add your meego
nick to the wiki with details or catch up with us in #meego
And I've been collecting comments - not all of which are mine and not all
of
which stand up to scrutiny - but which I think *do* reflect a lot of
opinions
and general 'buzz'.

David,
Seeing your post is a bit disconcerting. I would completely disagree that
there are problems on non-Atom hardware. The specific problem is that a
Core 2 or newer is needed. Yes, that still does leave a lot of older
hardware out in the cold since they do not support SSE3. It does however,
include a lot of hardware that is out there. It did start selling in July
of 2006.
My AMD CPU is less than 12 months old but Meego does not work on it.
$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep SSSE3
(no output)
no matter how much we lower the "baseline", there will always be more
people saying "but I have this CPU and that one is not supported".
At one point you have to say "stop", and disappoint people. You can't
satisfy everyone.
