Works on Intel but not AMD...

[d.healey]

A user is running Ubuntu 18.04 on three systems, two are AMD, once is Intel. My library works on his Intel one but not on either of the AMD ones. Any ideas?

These are the two stack traces from the plugin trying to run in Carla:

Thread 1 "carla" received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.

When running the standalone version, it crashes here:

I need a bit more info about the processors. Illegal instruction means that the CPU instruction is not available on the CPU, which usually happens with older CPUs. AFAIK the CPUS from AMD and Intel from the same period should be 100% compatible with each other - even the Intel IPP library works on AMD although I have read somewhere that they made it a bit slower there :)

Oh yeah, looks like these processors are ancient:

AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 980 Processor and AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 980 Processor

Also older nvidia gpus but not sure that will make much difference.

Yeah, HISE needs SSE 4.1 in different places, and they only have SSE 4a.

@christoph-hart So is this SSE 4.1 requirment also system requirment of HISE exported plugins? Because of that should we give this information to the user before they buy the plugin?
