Will the Linux MC run on ARM-based processors?

thanks

I am not a dev, but it's unlikely, at least at first :)
MC requires SSE2, MMX and various other x86 instruction sets.

I don't know exactly how much core code would need to be rewritten to work on ARM, but it'd be quite a bit. On the flip side, MC does have Gizmo for Android, so there's obvious experience in writing limited ARM code.

JimH:
No Arm.  Maybe some day.

astromo:
OK, I'll take one for the team.

The detail at the top of:

is light on.

So, what's minimum hardware architecture that the platform is expected to run on? It's hard for me to work out how I could sensibly use a Linux version, until I can get a good handle on the hardware involved.

BTW I'm a Linux Super Noob. My exposure to this sort of IT was back in my Uni days running Fortran code on a VAX with Unix as the operating system...   :o    ... so be gentle.

If, it's too early for this kind of question - fine..   8)

JimH:
DG/UX.
