-  Solution: compile <application>MPlayer</application> on the same machine
-  where you will use it!
-  </para>
-  <para>
-  Workaround: You can forget all this by configuring with the
-  <option>--enable-runtime-cpudetection</option> option or you can
-  disable particular CPU instruction sets with more specific options (like
