i bet there are millions and millions of computers on x86 still, yet they are killing it

>>58666391
Install POSReady

I would guess the number of people using it is tiny. 32bit x86 has no place anymore. Low power is ARM, cheap is ARM, legacy OS are run in virtual machines.

Just upgrade sempai

Use a distro that gives a fuck about you. Arch is made to be easy for Arch developers to maintain, not to serve the user in any way.

Less maintenance effort spent on 10+ year old shit. Take over maintenance yourself, install Gentoo, or do whatever else.

you need to set window borders and gtk theme separately anon. search the menu.

you probably mean xfce4-mixer, which is discontinued as gstreamer dropped the APIs it depended on. Use xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin and put it on the taskbar.

Already we can see 2 problems in this image.

Welcome to Debian (sid).

>>58666391
Eh, if you have at Pentium 4 then shouldn't you be able to use x86_64?

>>58667067
About time you upgraded your shitbox then. It's literally like 12-15 years old at this point. Basic Core 2 Duo platform is dirt cheap these days, and you'd probably save on electric bills as well. Not to mention you'd have a much faster PC for ultimate shitposting experience.

>>58668843
ok thanks, but I really meant to ask for an example of a tablet or something that included the chip, rather than the chip itself

>>58668741
Correction: the CPUs (Z3740 and Z3775) support 64-bit instructions but the manufacturer Asus only writes 32-bit UEFI BIOS

But, in all honesty, the Atoms & Quarks are primarily used in SoC designs. You can also find some weird x86 phones like the Zenfone 2.

>>58666391
I spent like 30 seconds staring at the Pinta window border because I thought the arrows were pointing out something was wrong with it.

Why didn't you just take a screenshot and edit that image, OP?

>You need 64bit UEFI to run 64bit OS.
UEFI was a fucking mistake. What happened to traditionally changing the processor mode yourself?
The MBR is fucking 16bit but that doesn't stop us from switching the processor to 64bit afterwards.

>>58666391
This was bound to happen sooner than later. Arch is meant to be bleeding edge, and 32 bit x86 is basically legacy bullshit.

If you're running arch on an architecture this old, you're doing it completely wrong.

>>58669173
This, just switch to Debian if you're stuck with legacy hardware.

i believe in the arch mailing list they claimed ~7% of the install base was running i686 with an estimated ~3 - 4% of that 7% being 64 bit capable. so really 3 - 4% are strictly 32 bit.

i can understand their reasoning. really no reason to be stuck on a 32 bit only cpu.

>>58666391
use gentoo
>wait, you probably can't since it would take like a day or two to compile just xorg on that p4.

>>58666427
.... then dont use arch.

kinda makes sense that a distro that aims to be cutting edge is dropping support an archetecture that has been legacy for well over a decade now.

>>58666391
Wasn't that an April fools joke a couple of years ago? Guess it's real this time

>>58666391
well i guess the decision to switch to gentoo on my i686 has been made a little easier

Windows 10 doesn't have this problem.

what the fuck this pisses me off, arch is one of my favorite distros to use on ancient x86 pc

>>58666693
This is what I was worried about when I heard the news. Mostly because Wine. Good to hear though.

get rid of your pentium 4 for christ sake do you live wasting power? do you love the high amount of heat that thing produces? get a regular 2017 pentium for 64 dollars and some cheap compatible board

>>58666391
Just use gentoo, they'll never phase i686 cpus out.

Arch is a distro for desktop users.
Most people treat their computers like shit, so they get a new one every 5 years.
So the amount of people who have a 10 year old computer is decreasing.
If you want to, you can maintain it yourself, there is good guides out there on how to set it up.
