[srslte-users] Painful attempt to install on Atom

[Andrea Valori]

Dear Xavier,

thanks for your reply.
Yes, I did try to compile from sources, but hit the issue described in my
previous email to the list (
https://lists.softwareradiosystems.com/pipermail/srslte-users/2021-June/004365.html
).
This is what I get from the /proc/cpuinfo:
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca
cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm pbe syscall nx
rdtscp lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts rep_good nopl xtopology
tsc_reliable nonstop_tsc cpuid aperfmperf tsc_known_freq pni pclmulqdq
dtes64 monitor ds_cpl vmx est tm2 ssse3 cx16 xtpr pdcm sse4_1 sse4_2 movbe
popcnt tsc_deadline_timer aes rdrand lahf_lm 3dnowprefetch epb pti ibrs
ibpb stibp tpr_shadow vnmi flexpriority ept vpid tsc_adjust smep erms
dtherm arat md_clear
