Does a Celeron 1.1 GHz (Coppermine) have SSE support? I'd like to try this on my laptop.

Yes. The last non-SSE supporting Celeron, IIRC, top out in the 500-600MHz range. Anything past that definately supports SSE.

You want an XFT+GTK2 build, correct?

Well, my build requires SSE support. I was going to build one without it for you.

It has a 1.1 GHz Celeron, so it should work with SSE. If not, I'll let you know. Thanks for considering me :)

I do not have a user.js but I do have a prefs.js. It worked when I put it in there.

Am I supposed to make a user.js or something?

The user.js file has to be created. It goes in the same directory with the prefs.js file.

Your build didn't work, but neither did the official nightly. Has something broken or changed?

Not that I know of. I used my 2003-10-08 XFT+GTK2 build on RH 8 at work today, and I am using the non-XFT+GTK1.2 build right now. Both seem to work fine. What's broken in your case?

Neither will start. Neither MozillaFirebird, MozillaFirebird-bin, or run-mozillla.sh works.

Jeez, I wonder what the issue can be... Do you have any plugins set up? I wondered for a second if the new flag I added (-mfpmath=sse) affected the build, but you're saying the official build won't work either. Does yesterday's build still run fine?

Um, the last build I tried was from about a week ago, and it did work fine. I have no plugins set up, and I have tried deleting /home/nilson/.phoenix and .mozilla.
