[Peter Belew <735600@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I installed Lubuntu 10.04 on a system with a VIA C3 cpu

Linux distro/version and kernel version
Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS
Linux trippy 2.6.32-35-generic #78-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 11 15:27:15 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux
vendor_id	: CentaurHauls
model name	: VIA Samuel 2
cpu MHz		: 798.000

On this system, I also get many (total 673!) errors due to the lack of a
CMOV instruction, when trying to install or update jdk or jre modules.
I've enclosed a typical error log file.

The problem is the same on the VIA and the AMD K6 CPU's: this code was
built for a 686, not a 586.  Ubuntu 10.04 LTS was the last release which
supported these processors. The code should have been built to 10.04
standards: allowing lack of CMOV.
