I upgraded from 5.1p1 to 5.3p1 today, everything looks to be running fine, as far as remote shell and pidgin X tunneling goes :)

I didn't feel brave enough to test these !

Thanks for the updates.

Thanks for the nice toy Martin !
Just tested it on the Onyx2 IR2E and the Onyx IP, works great on both. Just a note : it looks a bit dark (eg. I don't see anything until I hit space), I'm not sure if it's related to my gamma settings (I use gamma 1.0 on my sgis)...

I don't know much about second life, but I guess both viewers use OpenGL extensions that are not available in v1.2 (best case : multitexturing, worst case : shader).
I'll have a look when I have a bit of free time.

Very nice !
Do you have any plans to convert the Origin, to get a dual channel setup ?

I have added -L/usr/nekoware/lib -lglut -lfglut but to no avail...

The missing libs are -lm and -lGLU. About Swap() and maxdirsterid(), just convert them from templates to regular functions in btConvexHull.cpp, as it always uses the same type anyway (int and btVector3) ;)

Any chance that we can Ramen (Nodal Compositing) to be ported for IRIX?
http://ramenhdr.sourceforge.net/

Looking at the list of dependencies it's a no-go... Intel TBB, OpenGL 2.0, QT 4.4.3, Boost 1.42...
Finally, I'll just get a quote from the website :
Quote:
Ramen is being developed and tested on Linux (ubuntu 8.10) and Mac OSX.
It is portable, so a windows version should not be difficult to build.

Everything is said.

Very nice! Do you use it much? The mix of R12Ks and R14Ks seems interesting, is it noticeable in the way IRIX balances loads over them? Or barely? (Since it's all MIPS IV , instruction set-wise; or is it too crude to put it like that?)

Unfortunately I don't have much time to play with it lately :(
Regarding the CPU mix, the Irix scheduler is smart enough to address load to its favorite cpus (in my case processor #2 is the most used).

Not specific to yours, but someone should make a video of one of these, from the powering up to a bunch of demos, without music mixed over it.

This is the kind of machines that is really more impressive/fun for real, but pretty boring in a video... ;)

I just gave it a try, and it compiled without any trouble... It looks to be running fine, but it needs a few adjustments before I can provide a tardist.

As you seem to have some great gfx skills, it would be nice if you could put together a nice default theme to package with jwm as the source doesn't come with any icons or anything, and the default looks humm... well, I let you see by yourself :P

Many Unix-like systems nowadays have this port disabled; if you want to use the PROM ping command, you will have to enable it on your system (look in inetd configuration).

Just an idea... Would it perhaps be easier if there was a separate subforum for nekoware packages?

The package submitter would create a new thread for each submitted package and add a simple "Works: yes/no" poll to the thread. The users could anonymously vote whether the package works for them or not.

Any problems with that package could be reported in the same thread. If enough users vote that the package works, it's moved to /current.


I think it's a good idea. It would make it easier to track packages submission, especially in case of /beta flooding...

If you have any ideas I'll be happy to plug them in. Even if this isn't something I want, seems like someone might be happy to have it.


This is where "porting" comes into play (read : rather than #ifdefing and #including ;) ). I didn't have a look at the sources, but I guess atomic.h contains some OS specific code (osLock, osUnlock, ...) that have to be implemented for Irix. If you're lucky, maybe you can reuse another OS implementation. If you're not, you may have to write some Irix specific code, and/or use compiler intrinsics for atomic operations.

Edit : attached a patch to make pixie 2.2.6 build, but I don't have any knowledge about it to test the result...

So it tried to do one of the final links and crapped out. We *might* have hit an internal limit on the linker which brings us to the point that we simply can't continue. I'll look more into this, but I'm kinda not sure how to continue. Might need to fix binutils GNU ld and pray it can successfullymanage it.

To put this in context, ld ran for over an hour, ate 700 MiB of RAM, and pegged out the processor it was running on.

Monster library is monster ...

I had the very same problem when attempting to build libwebkit. My par investigation revealed that there was indeed a mmap hard limit at 1GB.
In your case, I simply hope you just ran out of memory/swap.
In my case, I tested with 8GB of ram and tons of swap, with the same result. My (poor) workaround was to strip all objects before linking, to keep the size within the 1GB limit.

smj, does the Octane you gave him have MIPSPro 7.4 installed? To compile in c99 mode he has to pass the -c99 flag to the compiler...

I'm pretty sure that someone that can write such a piece of software can read the man page of his compiler. Also, with mipspro, c99 mode cannot be used with C++, so that may not even be an option...

Just spotted an SGI 1200 in TPB AFK

I'm glad it found a good SGI enthusiast home, and that it's living on the edge of unsupported SGI configuration :D

Has someone already tried that?

If I believe this post and this linux kernel commit it looks like that irix binary compatibility support did exist at some point in time.
It seems it was pretty buggy and limited to the O32 ABI.
But it may give you some inspiration...

Interesting. Would you elaborate on this ?
