[Sugar-devel] Dr.Geo on XO 1

[Bert Freudenberg]

The trace is not enlightening.

I'll take a shot in the dark:

I vaguely remember the XO-1's AMD Geode processor lacks some features that other x86 CPUs have. Do I remember correctly? If that is so, could you try compiling the VM in i386 compatibility mode? I don't recall how to do that, it's been too long ago ...
