The collected works of diegel - Page 1

I just sent a PM to dexter. We are an Internet service provider, if we can help with some free ftp or rack space for a nekoware mirror, you are welcome.

For a different reason I read the mplayer release notes today. There is a part for DVD playback. If you follow the instructions you can play encrypted DVDs on your Fuel. I tested it with my Fuel and it works perfectly using the command: mplayer -fs -dvd-device /dev/dsk/dks1d6vol dvd://1

From the release notes:

DVD playback:

You'll need read access to the entry in /dev/dsk for your DVD drive (such as /dev/dsk/dks1d6vol)
and read-write (for encrypted DVDs only) to the corresponding entry in /dev/scsi (such as /dev/dsk/sc1d6l0).
You should specify the first as your -dvd-device or in the gui preferences, and the second should
be set in the environment variable DVDGENDEV. If DVDGENDEV isn't set, it defaults to /dev/scsi/sc1d6l0.
If /dev/scsi/sc1d6l0 is a system disk, etc., it'd be good to remove write access to it.

Have fun.

I was involved in producing games in the 80s. There was no rendering or raytracing that time. Every pixel was set by hand. This is the reason why the graphics looks more like a cartoon. The graphics were mostly produced directly on the target system. 4096 colors was a dream that time, in most systems you had to deal with much less than 256 colors.

In my experience -vo gl2 is a workaround for this problem.

I tried to make a P1000 running in my O2 without success. I don't get any link problems, but packet loss. So I decided my P1000 is broken.
I got two ideas regarding your problem:
a) Are all optics and cables multimode? If you mix single and multimode you can run in similar problems
b) If you have a managed switch: toggle the auto negotiation mode of your switchport

I'm not sure. Atm the setup only has one optical cable, the one linking the P1000 to a GBIC in the switch. All other
cabling is copper.


Yes of course you have only this optical connection. Are you sure you use a multimode (50/125) cable and not a singlemode (9/125). The numbers should be printed on the cable. I guess your switch works with SFP modules. Multimode is SX and singlemode are LX or LH SFPs .

If it helps, I would copy my working development environment to a spare O350 with 4x700mhz and connect it to the Internet.

That's what I wrote in your other thread. If I remember correctly, I have seen the the same error when I tried this with Irix 6.5.30. It works for me with Irix 6.5.22, but I also have 1GB RAM installed.

I mean, the "libs" should be installed first or?
No, you can install your package and all dependencies at once. I have all nekoware packages in neko_current and all extracted tardists in the dist directory. In normal cases you have one conflict, with all missing dependencies. Since you have all the dependencies in your install distribution, you can resolve them at once. It may be possible that you have to resolve additional dependencies with beta packages. In this case I do the same in an extra directory for beta packages.

Try "conflicts" before "go".

Yes you can "i *" and you can ignore the dependencies with "set rulesoverride on", but you should do this only if you know exactly what you are doing.

Edit: I just read your first part again: Probably there went something wrong before or some system libraries are missing. Can you give some information on what system you are working.

I looked through the forums here and came across a number of posts with sample environmental monitor output on Tezros. They all seem lower than what I see on both of my machines.

I don't think this is normal. That's the temperature of my Tezro running 24/7 at 20C room temperature:

I thought it might be a good idea to use our new gcc 4.7 and give dillo3.0.2 a try. fltk1.3 builds fine and test/demo runs without errors. dillo compiles fine also and it starts with the correct displayed startup screen (about:splash). I can open files but there is a strange 32 byte limit. I can open file:/tmp/12345678901234567890123.jpg but file:/tmp/123456789012345678901234.jpg return a 404 error. Websites don't open at all. Same behavior compiled with gcc3. Any idea?

Even if you make the code compile with mips pro you will run into the same problem of the gcc build. There is probably a problem in the IO part. Socket connections don't work at all and opening files has a strange 32byte limit in path length. I am sure this is not a problem of the gcc build.

I uploaded firefox 3.0.19 and it is available in beta now:

ftp://ftp.nekoware.de/beta/neko_firefox3.0.19_beta.tardist

I named the package beta, because it has still a problem in the svg code I have to fix. But if you don't want to display svg graphics it works fine so far. The package will coexist with the current firefox2 release. You can start the new firefox with firefox3.

It is a gcc4.7 build and only a -O2 build on the current state. It based on the patch dexter1 developed three yeas ago. He was so close, but he interpreted the debug output in a wrong way and did not look at the right place. He had only to disable the complete senseless feature safe-browsing. Enjoy firefox3.

Edit: If you have firefox2 and firefox3 installed, you can't run both at the same time. Starting the other version only opens a window of the running version.

You can extract the libraries from the current distribution and move it to /usr/nekoware/lib/firefox-3.0.19. I did the same with an older version of libcairo, because this version of firefox is not compatible with the current libcairo.

I will upload a r10k optimized -Ofast build tonight. The new package will also include a patch and updated release notes. Runs much faster on my Tezro currently. I didn't fix the svg bug so far...

@hamei: Sorry, but I cant help you from here. Try to reinstall the packages from the dependency list: atk,bzip2,expat,fontconfig,freetype2,gdk_pixbuf,glib,glitz,gtk,libiconv,libpixman,libxft,libxrender,pango

I just uploaded neko_firefox3.0.19_beta2.tardist to incoming and send a PM to nekonoko, it will probably show up in beta soon. I made a mistake with the version no in the first beta, please install it with set nerveroverride on.

This version is a gcc -Ofast build, it contains a current patch and updated release notes. It still has the svg bug. I hope I can fix the bug at the weekend.

If you have a working build environment with working autoconfig, you should be able to build your own firefox3. The release notes contain detailed build instructions. Also a mips pro build is possible without much work, Dexter1 prepared that for us three years ago. Have fun with it...
