This bug still persists in Ubuntu 19.04 (Disco Dingo).
My use case is porting 32-bit x86 assembly that calls ALSA through a C
interface. In order to not require modern systems to have to install
32-bit libraries just for this one program, I would like to be able to
link statically.

@raphael-fáistonpc: I have been having this and other GDM3 related
issues hitting the laptops I administer and its a showstopper here, too.
My current "solution" has been to give up on GDM3 and just 'sudo apt
install lightdm'. Perhaps that will let your robotics team get back to
work without
Nearly a year later, this is still an immediate problem. For people
finding this bug via Google, the only fix I've found that cares about
security is to use Debian GNU/Linux instead of Ubuntu and `apt install
firefox-esr`. This works because the stable (Stretch) version of Debian
uses Firefox-ESR
By the way, I just tested it and csysdig works if compiled with liblua
instead of libluajit. Maybe the i386 build should default to that.

Public bug reported:
Antiquated hardware (i686-class pentium iii) runs Ubuntu great 99%, but
Csysdig may be in the 1%. (Sysdig itself runs fine. Csysdig, the curses
interface, crashes with SIGILL.)

In Bug 1697800 Seth Arnold points out that the upgrade tools are not in
a position to check architecture features before installation. While I
don't know the best (least worst?) solution, here are some ideas.
Option A) Compile the SSE2 parts of Firefox in a separate library and
place it in
Seth writes, "running a known-insecure webbrowser is probably a bad
idea."
Agreed. Except I would say "definitely".
It's important that Ubuntu gets some sort of a fix soon. I've already
seen a person asking on a forum how to downgrade and being told to
install a third party package by hand. This
By the way, since this problem is already causing Ubuntu LTS systems to
break, it may make sense to implement a quick stopgap solution. One
possibility is to change the version of Firefox in 16.04 to "firefox-
esr" (Extended Support Release). While this release will only be
supported by Mozilla
Public bug reported:
As has been noted in Bug 1697800, Firefox now dies on machines which
Ubuntu still supports (i686). This is a critical problem as Firefox was
the only modern web browser that did not require the SSE2 extensions and
Ubuntu has committed to long term support for machines without
It looks like this has been in the works for awhile and Mozilla had
intended for Firefox to detect SSE2 support in the installer and in the
automatic updates. Of course, Ubuntu is skipping both of those.

You can trigger a crash immediately on a machine without SSE2 by
running firefox 54 like so:

Spoke too soon. Firefox does still die of SIGILL, it just doesn't die
immediately. It is still choking on an SSE2 instruction, though, so
this is the same bug.

I tried the version the version just released,
54.0+build3-0ubuntu0.16.04.1, and it appears Firefox is working again
on a machine without SSE2. Thank you!
I don't see anything in 'apt changelog firefox' describing what was
done to fix it, though. Was it recompiled with different flags?

I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 on an old laptop. Firefox used to work on

Hi Vej,
That bug is similar, but I don't think it's a duplicate. In the bug from
five years ago, the request is to make the Unknown Error less
intimidating by doing things like hiding the traceback.

I used Deja Dup for the first time today.
I like that Deja Dup is usable by neophytes and newbies. Unfortunately,
when it fails, which it did for me, it leaves a rather sour impression.
In particular, I'm referring to Deja Dup's infamous "FAILED WITH AN

On my machine, I can trigger the bug 100% of the time if I do this:

I also have this bug, though on a multi-user system. I have one user who
