wine and SSE2 feature
«

Hello,
I am trying to install a windows program under wine in tinycore but at an early stage during installation I get:
"Your computer does not support SSE2 feature."
Is it a general wine issue or just related to the current wine extension?
Thanks

Does that occur only with the specific windows app, or with any app?
Does the app install anyway or not?

It happens just with one application that does not finish install procedure (Presonus Studio One), but I have to say I just tried a bunch of applications: Reaper, SampleTank, Kontakt, Java.

First of all, does your cpu support SSE2? if not, it's not a bug anywhere.

I seem to remember you can check the cpu info in one of the tabs on cpanel/stats

in the "cpu" tab of cp/stats
I find "sse sse2 ss" at the "flags" line.

Well wine was compiled with the standard tc flags -march=i486 -mtune=i686. To add sse2 support an additional flag -msse2 would be needed (I guess), but that decision is basically up to the designers of tc and the repo maintainer. I'm ready to submit such version ;-) So I think no bug at all, just a design issue?!

just for information:
I tested this feature on linux mint and it fails there too.

Have you checked if this windows app is supported by wine?

@gutmensch:
It should be of no use to have Wine itself use sse2 features. The apps' use of such is independent of Wine's.
IMO, a needless restriction on what cpus can run Wine, without hardly any benefit on those that can.

P5music,
Searching the AppDB of winehq I can't see any app with such a name.
Any pointers to what makes you believe it should work?
