I purposely filed a bug for this because a number of Debian maintainers seem to be under the impression that Geode LX hasn't been supported for a couple of Debian releases. Pointing out that the -686 kernel is build for exactly that doesn't seem to convince them. I therefore feel that this needs to be made more explicit in the release notes. $ grep MGEODE_LX /boot/config-6.1.0-6-686 CONFIG_MGEODE_LX=y > > Additionally, other packages apparently disregard build-essentials' GCC > > defaults and instead configure flags to match the CPU features of the build > > host, which produces binaries that segfault on a Geode. > > Those are in principle all RC bugs and don't only impact Geode.
