+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Le 20/09/2010 21:14, Florian Hubold a &#233;crit :
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; AFAIK mandriva packages are not optimized/built for i686
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; (anything above Pentium Pro) but for i586. And i suppose
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; that's not gonna change.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> If I remember well, the long i586/i686 debate on cooker has been
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> terminated with 2 facts : there are no massive improvements on software
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> X (I don't remember which one) and we have to keep compatibility with
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> some netbooks (OEM with mandriva).
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> If mageia doesn't target these netbooks and if you can show real
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> improvement, I think this can be discussed.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Have a nice day
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Well, since we are *not*&#160; that linked to Mandriva, we could avoid this
+</I>&gt;<i> problem by producing a netbook edition if needed. Why restricting our work
+</I>&gt;<i> to i586/x86-64?
+</I>
+One more edition =&gt; more work; also compiling packages with different
+specific flags for one particular edition is much more work, I am
+thinking about package repositories/updates too.... (just my humble
+non-dev POV :)).
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> For some programs, there is a significant boost in using sse/sse2 (for
+</I>&gt;<i> instance the mlt library, povray rendering, etc).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I've enabled them explicitly in mandriva some time ago in the x86-64 build,
+</I>&gt;<i> and it should be the default there. If some arch do not comply to the &quot;sse2&quot;
+</I>&gt;<i> demand, then we can discuss this on a &quot;specific basis, but not limit
+</I>&gt;<i> everyone on this...
+</I>&gt;<i>
