Re: SeaMonkey 2.46 requires CPU with SSE2 support

Post by cuppettcj »

I just completed a Windows x86 build of SeaMonkey 2.48 using code I downloaded and modified from the comm-release branch 3 months ago. In this build I've changed the "/arch:SSE2" build flag with "/arch:SSE", so in theory this build should work on CPUs that support SSE but not SSE2. I tried following the instructions here, but those instructions are old so I needed to make several changes to account for newer Visual Studio (2015 vs 2013), as well as other tweaks I needed to make to get everything working.

You can download my installer here. Please be aware of the following notes / caveats.
  • My legacy PC that had an AMD Athlon XP 3000+ Barton core processor died on me two months ago, so I can no longer test this. You all who still have legacy pre-SSE2 processors will need to tell me if this works or not.
  • Bug 1252041 has not been fixed. This is because the source file old-configure.in has been heavily modified between the time the patch fix was applied and Firefox 49 was released, so I'm not 100% sure where the most appropriate place is to add the code back in. The patch was later reverted before Firefox 49 was finalized because the decision was made to drop all support for pre-SSE2 processors. I may try to throw the code into a similar location later and rebuild, but for right now I decided to leave the patch out just to be safe. According to the bug description, the issue only affects audio / video playback, so you may be able to work around the issue by using Flash rather than relying on native multimedia functionality in the browser.
  • I noticed some warnings about missing DirectX files when the build first kicked off. Obviously, they did not prevent the build from completing successfully, but it may mean that hardware acceleration using WebGL might not work. Please let me know if this is the case. I will try to figure out how to solve these warnings later.
  • Before the change was made to use SSE2 in the build instructions, only "/arch:IA32" was used. I decided to build with "/arch:SSE" instead, so Barton core processors may see some increased performance.
  • This is my very first SeaMonkey build. It's very possible that I got something wrong and this build won't work well if at all. Please let me know of any problems you experience.
  • Anybody who has more experience than I do with building SeaMonkey is invited to give advice or help assuming that this build does not work as expected.

To start, on attempted start, missing msvcp140.dll...


After copying in needed (missing) files (simply copied from existing SeaMonkey 2.49.1 install), works.

Probably built without the ucrt and VS2015 runtime files just as I do it. Install the VS2015 Update 3 or VS2017 x86 redistributable runtime.

https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=746571

VS2017 runtime still runs under XP.

It looks like I need to fix the DirectX file warnings at the very least, because WebGL is broken according to the about:support page. I'll try to also look into the missing DLL files. I've sent a PM to frg. I would like to see that setup guide.

In the bug is an explanation about the ucrt and runtime files. I always install the runtime on all my PCs and build without them. Much more convenient.

Https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1364497

You might miss the directx redist files. Its covered in the guide. Also a lot of drivers are blacklisted because of issues with them. That might explain the about:support output.

Seems working for me, didn't notice any differences with 2.40, but will check later on weekend on some Bartons. RU langpack from official 2.48b1 working with it too.

I'll try cuppettcj's SM 2.48 build on a relative's Compaq SR1303WM computer that has an AMD Athlon XP 3200+ (2.2Ghz - AXDA3200DKV4E) Barton CPU with 2Gb of RAM and using Win7 SP1 32bit [hah, I have a slightly faster CPU than therube - maybe he should try to get either the Athlon XP 3200+ or Sempron 3300+ (SDA3300DKV4E), both are 2.2Ghz and have an FSB speed of 400Mhz :D ]. and he should buy some cheap usb speakers to connect to his PC thru a usb port for sound

ok I got a chance to test out cuppettcj's SM 2.48 package on the Compaq computer with an AMD Athlon XP 3200+ processor.

epic fail when running SM 2.48 setup saying "Seamonkey requires WinXP SP2 or later" - however I'm using Win7 SP1 Professional x86 on there.
after extracting all the files inside onto a temp folder, I had to overwrite the setup.exe file with an older version (copied setup.exe from an older SM build like 2.40) that doesn't have the SSE2 processor check to actually install the unofficial SM 2.48 browser.

I can't say that I recommend using cuppettcj's Seamonkey build as it's greatly flawed. in other words, two thumbs down - avoid and wait until a much improved version from cuppettcj comes out with a setup installer (setup.exe) that doesn't include or bypasses the SSE2 CPU check as well as including the proper ucrt & runtime files.

That is just the installers way to tell you that SSE2 support is missing :) Has been fixed in 2.49.

epic fail when running SM 2.48 setup saying "Seamonkey requires WinXP SP2 or later" - however I'm using Win7 SP1 Professional x86 on there.
after extracting all the files inside onto a temp folder, I had to overwrite the setup.exe file with an older version (copied setup.exe from an older SM build like 2.40) that doesn't have the SSE2 processor check to actually install the unofficial SM 2.48 browser.

I can't say that I recommend using cuppettcj's Seamonkey build as it's greatly flawed. in other words, two thumbs down - avoid and wait until a much improved version from cuppettcj comes out with a setup installer (setup.exe) that doesn't include or bypasses the SSE2 CPU check as well as including the proper ucrt & runtime files.
That's so weird. I could have sworn I had an older version of the installer code that DIDN'T check for SSE2. I will double-check and try to run another build once I figure out what is causing errors when I try to include the DirectX files.

Re: SeaMonkey 2.46 requires CPU with SSE2 support

The installer files in toolkit and in SeaMonkey needs to be both changes for this to work.
