Package: capplets
Version: 1:2.8.1-3
Severity: important
I have just loaded Debian/testing on an old Cyrix P133+ based machine
and when I attempted to start control-center I found that
gnome-settings-daemon was continually crashing with a SIGILL. I got a
backtrace from GDB which shows it was running libgstreamer-0.8.so.1 code
and had executed a cpuid instruction. I'm presuming that this is either
privileged or not-implemented on the cpu.
(gdb) cont
Continuing.
Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
