Agreed, it didn't have much to do about SSE3, but when the accelerated
graphics portion takes over, _that_ is the part it shows up.
Again, you failed to list a single Meego package that will not
support a non SSSE3 machine by design. Others kind of accelerated
graphics optimization exists aside of the SSSE3 set.
Again, it's not an issue of "not supporting", it's an issue of "it
actually works better.
Go rebuild everything without SSSE3 (like the kernel and xorg and xorg
libraries) and compare the performance differences. They are very
noticeable.
Sorry but I perfectly live for years with machines that have kernel and
xorg stuff without any SSSE3 instruction. And I am pretty sure that I am
not the only one.
Your position is so strong that this start feeling like Meego is now a
Intel marketing tools. I hope I am wrong on this, because I am here from
the Maemo history.
