Hi all,
lately I got a few crash reports indicating that QtQuick requires SSE2:
"This program requires an X86 processor that supports SSE2 extension, at
least a Pentium 4 or newer"
(e.g. 374023).
Should we add this as a minimum requirement to our release announcement
and also inform distributions about it? SSE2 Got introduced with Intel
Pentium 4 (2001). AMD added support for it in 2003. This means hardware
older than 13-14 years are no longer supported.
Cheers
Martin
