How much will an sca connector deliver ?

I thought there were some peecee-onna-pci card thingies -- put one in a shoebox, add a little two-port switch, and bob's yer uncle ? That would make the ethernet connector more accessible, too.

You could even do that to an O2 ...

Have you tried rdesktop, u-u ? It works pretty good. That's how I do innernuts these days. Having it all in one box might be fun.

The only hangup comes when you swipe something off a web page and try to drop it via the mouse onto your Irix desktop. Oops :mrgreen:

Thanks beaucoupissimo, dexter1.

I'm going to go back and read that post another couple hundred times now :P

vishnu wrote: Maxwell on IRIX redux: I solved the link problem .. . :|

Take a page from dextrose and show us wooden-hammer kids how :D

I have a few link problems sitting on the back burner, I hate it when you finally get everything to build, then it refuses to link :(
A little update ... by applying dexter1's skillful and talented analysis and the changes incorporated in his 3.4.3 patch to xcircuit-3.6.39, we get - violin !


This is 3.6.39 because at 3.6.40 we encounter the dreaded Phase Change where an even more mysterious error creeps into the source. So hopefully this is just a midway improvement but it's still better than 3.3.38 :D

If someone without a compiler wants this version I can put together a tarfile but with a little luck we (mouse in my pocket, yes) will get to 3.9.40 which does have some useful improvements.

To build yourself :

I have to put the full path to xpm.h into configure. The README indicates xpm is not necessary but at least here, without it some things don't work.

Add dexter1's patch changes to the various C files. Basically this is changing < pressmode > to an integer and replacing "True" with 1 and "False" with 0 in several places.

parameter.c needs a NULL added, this is also in the patch and also in a thread here from ages ago.

tkPixmap.c and xcircuit.c need the full path to xpm.h added - at least for me. My environment is screwed up ?

Then a straight gmake / gmake install.

Then, in /your_base_directory/lib/tkcon.tcl, around line 44 you have to remove the < -exact > switch from the version check. Anything over 8 should work, the -exact thing is kind of a pain in the rear.

Bob's yer uncle :P

(Yes I know, that "circuit" will not work. It's just a bunch of entities dragged onto a drawing with lines added. But all the features seem to work - library, wires, cut, edit, move, rotate, etc. I didn't test everything but so far, all the basics seem to be working)

Besides circuit symbols there are flowchart and music symbols for download from opencircuitdesign and one can easily imagine network symbols - routers, switches, servers etc. So this thing should be useful for people in a variety of areas. And it should be fast enough even on an Indigo (1) ...

edit : just tried 3.6.40, where the other error started, except with the Boolean - integer error fixed.

It works.

So the next error is somewhere up the road from here.

edit ii : 6.3.41 is the first instance of the Next Big Error. 40 is okay. Sorry about that, bad notes :(

Actually, this is why I fell in love with smp - twenty years ago OS/2 had "pervasive multi-threading" with multiple processors and it worked very very well.

But that was with real programmers :mrgreen:
dexter1 wrote: If you now have two versions side-by-side, one without the bug and the other with the bug, do a version diff. That way you can easily check differences. Most likely code changes in canvas refresh or mouse event handling might be the culprit.

Thanks, Mr Dex. I believe I have the problem semi-isolated now, it's in events.c, but took a few hours off to make it fit the Family ...

Wasn't exactly straightforward, settings are spread over a couple places but not too bad. I'll share after I hunt down the last few recalcitrants.

Maybe someone artistic could do something about those icons ? Drawing is not my strong suit :(

Then we'll get back to the Important Stuff. Can't let vish steal all the glory :P
Okey-dokey, Smokey ... 3.6.40 works, 3.6.41 does not. But importing events.c from 40 into 41, with the addition of one line, does work. Differences are very few :

As marked ... (this is maybe not the best way ever, but ...)

The last area is the one that seems the most suspicious ...

The release notes aren't too much help on this problem but here they are :

XCircuit wrote: posted: July 18, 2006 at 2:40am version: 3.6 revision: 41
2006-07-17 21:06 tim A number of changes: Modified the way XCircuit creates backup files, avoiding spurious timeout errors that occur in Linux. Does not write the backup file multiple times if there is no activity. Added a command "config suspend" that allows scripts to suspend drawing to the screen during read-in of scripted files. This function does not yet cover all cases where drawing occurs, but it catches the major ones. Corrected numerous Tcl command-line commands. Additional options will be written up in the documentation. "object make" now returns a handle to the newly-generated instance ("symbol.tcl" has been modified to no longer attempt to work around the error), and "object make ... -force" will generate a new empty object (previously disallowed), avoiding the necessity of creating some dummy element and then erasing it.


and the newer, might be relevant ? Same subject, the new "suspend" thingy ...

posted: July 19, 2006 at 2:40am version: 3.6 revision: 42
2006-07-18 17:08 tim Added new TCL script "edif.tcl" that handles EDIF 2.0.0 file format reads. Includes some source file bug fixes, such as having the command "parameter make ..." return a TCL_ERROR if an attempt is made to create a duplicate parameter name. Also, more drawing routines removed when in "suspend" mode, which otherwise cause XCircuit to produce a weird Tcl result on an ordinary command (in this case, a "no such variable XCOps(focus)" error was returned from the command "label type"). The flag TCL_NAMESPACE_ONLY was removed from calls to Tcl_Var, which should prevent the above error from occurring even outside of "suspend" mode.
Also: Rewrote the "config suspend" mechanism slightly so that a single call to "config suspend" puts XCircuit in a "temporarily suspended" drawing mode. Any key or button press in the window will return XCircuit to a normal drawing state. This prevents XCircuit from getting hung in suspend mode if, for example, the "read_edif" procedure halts in the middle with an error return value. "config suspend" can be called twice in a row to prevent keystrokes from breaking the suspend state, in case anyone cares.

What I've found works really good is to replace the index.html with just a phone number. Then anyone wanting to access your site can call in and get a permission form.

Mail that off to them, get all the data you need plus a certificate of no criminal record, their social security number, driver's license number, a full medical report and IRS returns covering the past twenty years and you're all set. Check the returned forms against the FBI, CIA and NSA databases and you'll probably be safe.

Here's a question from logic, not programming, but still ...

Code: Select all

/*--------------------------------------------------------------*/
/* Set the name for a new user-defined object and make the   */
/* object.  If "forceempty" is true, we allow creation of a new   */
/* object with no elements (normally would be used only from a   */
/* script, where an object is being constructed automatically).   */
/*--------------------------------------------------------------*/

objinstptr domakeobject(int libnum, char *name, Boolean forceempty)
{
objectptr *newobj;
objinstptr *newinst;
genericptr *ssgen;
oparamptr ops, newop;
eparamptr epp, newepp;
stringpart *sptr;
XPoint origin;
short loclibnum = libnum;

if (libnum == -1) loclibnum = USERLIB - LIBRARY;

/* make room for new entry in library list */

xobjs.userlibs[loclibnum].library = (objectptr *)
realloc(xobjs.userlibs[loclibnum].library,
(xobjs.userlibs[loclibnum].number + 1) * sizeof(objectptr));

newobj = xobjs.userlibs[loclibnum].library + xobjs.userlibs[loclibnum].number;

*newobj = delete_element(areawin->topinstance, areawin->selectlist,
areawin->selects, NORMAL);

if (*newobj == NULL) {
objectptr initobj;

if (!forceempty) return NULL;

/* Create a new (empty) object */

initobj = (objectptr) malloc(sizeof(object));
initmem(initobj);
*newobj = initobj;
}

invalidate_netlist(topobject);
xobjs.userlibs[loclibnum].number++;


In the first line after the comment, "forcempty" is declared as a Boolean.

But about seven lines from the bottom, it's states "if forcempty returns NULL .."

How can a Boolean return null ? It's either true or false. How can it ever be null ? That's not an option ... when did you stop beating your wife ?

Pretty sure the problem is in this "suspend" thingy. There's only about twenty lines changed in events.c, all involving the new "suspend" function, and events.c is THE file that causes the weird behaviour.

Folks say that if you listen real close at the height of the full moon, when the wind is blowin' off Nantucket Sound from the nor' east and the dogs are howlin' for no earthly reason, you can hear the awful screams of the crew of the "Ellie May," a sturdy whaler captained by John McTavish; for it was on just such a night when the rum was flowin' and, Davey Jones be damned, big John brought his men on deck for the first of several screaming contests.
Trippynet wrote: It's not the Boolean which is set to NULL, it's the return value of the function.

I will be the first to admit that the "logic" of programming languages often escapes me :P

But still pretty sure it is in events.c This is the only other change of any significance in that file ....

Code: Select all

/* copy name into object and check for conflicts */

strcpy((*newobj)->name, name);
checkname(*newobj);

/* generate library instance for this object (bounding box   */
/* should be default, so don't do calcbbox() on it)      */

addtoinstlist(loclibnum, *newobj, FALSE);

/* recompile the user catalog and reset view bounds */

composelib(loclibnum + LIBRARY);
centerview(xobjs.libtop[loclibnum + LIBRARY]);

return *newinst;
}

Which suspiciously generates the library and resets the view bounds ... altho the crash happens exactly when you drop the object but if there's nothing to drop it onto ... ?

Thanks, vish, for destroying another illusion. Crispin was an mbox fan ? What a dick.

For anyone who is unfortunate enough to set up and run a small mail server (i.e., about 25 people) stay away from any of the worthless Unix CRAP . It's all absolutely worthless stinking idiotic shit.

Set up a little OS/2 box and run Weasel. You'll be done in an hour and it will never give you even a whiff of trouble.

Stupid Unix garbage with all their penis-stroking idiotic obscurity and pointless complexity, it's worse than ridiculous. It's an unnecessary nightmare.

I installed Communigate into Solaris a while back as well. It would have been okay if I could have found a version from back before they also went wacko. The current Communigate is half-submerged in pointless garbage that you can't get rid of, too.

mbox ... what a dipshit.

Altho I am not overjoyed with the 3.9.40 .... first, it absolutely refuses to find xpm no matter what I do. Second, I had to go into the Makefile and ditch

Code: Select all

cairo.$(OBJEXT) : CFLAGS += -pedantic -Wall -Wextra
elements.$(OBJEXT) : CFLAGS += -pedantic -Wall -Wextra
events.$(OBJEXT) : CFLAGS += -pedantic -Wall -Wextra

text.$(OBJEXT) : CFLAGS += -pedantic -Wall -Wextra
utf8encodings.$(OBJEXT) : CFLAGS += -pedantic -Wall -Wextra

which makes me wonder what other gcc-isms may have been missed.

But 3-8-78 seems to be fine, it's the 'stable' build anyway, so maybe for the moment ... don't know. It's easy enough to keep both installed, just change the startup script, one is installed in /basedir/lib/xcircuit-3.8.78 and the other in /basedir/lib/xcircuit-3.9.40

It was COMMON to swap out the pre-300 mhz processors. Worked in both single and dual forms. But at 360 mhz SGI went to soldered processor chips, which are a bear to replace. Even with the O2 boards and soldering on new outta the box chips, doing small lots of bga chips is expensive and has a lower-than-100% yield.

In practice, no one is going to make dual 600 boards from lower-spec boards because it would cost twice as much and only have about an 80% chance of success. Plus there's no source for new 600 mhz cpu's. What is the plan here, buy two old single-p boards, unsolder the chips to resolder them onto a dual-p setup ? Totally not sensible.

Ah gots ta say, ah disagree with ma esteemed colleeg mister hakmoto heah, on some a them finer points.

First off, is what is the definishun of a 'commyoonity'. Down heah wheah us deplorables live, ya gotta take the good with the bad. Yup, cousin Eunice's daughter she won the state prize foah cheerleadin' an she's headed off ta Memphis, shook her tits an got her a good job as a seckatary. But the same time, cousin Moreen, well ah assidentally walked inta the bathroom at her double-wide last month and she sure do got a big dick for a little woman. And Cousin Bo, he ain't got much upstairs but he can cook up a mean possum stew and if y'all ever needs a nickel, he be right there. Best not to need more'n thet tho, cuz he ain't got much. Then Uncle Stepan, damn me but he got a purty house up on tha hill with a lawn nigger an everthin, ah guess he purty famous from writin' them books but ah cain't hep but wondah what he do with all them cute colored gals when da nighttime come, him bein' tha only male in the place and all.

Back to tha point, down heah in One Below, ah figger we got us a commyoonity, and everbody kin speak theah mind. Somebody git way outta line, somebody else gonna tell em what foah. Otherwahs, we jes put up with tha bad and take the good and leave each othah alone. Ain't nobody with a little mustache marchin' the street pointin' fingers and tellin people what ta say, what ta do.

So mah colleeg heah mistah hakimoto done told us everthin is fahn, we's got the best of all possible worlds, moderatin' heah is bettah than anyplace else and all thet. To an extent ah gotta agree, then to anothah extent ah think y'all are missin somethin' …


An thet sumthin he go bah the name Poindexter. Now lahk ah said, we all don' care much 'bout dumb-ass Bo, and Moreen, well, if she wanta have a dick and wear a dress both, thet's her own affaih. But none o them people is struttin around givin orders. Seems like a tin badge shore do go to some people haids. This heah feller he done gone off to play with a bunch a childern fo five long yeahs without even poke his haid in heah, but when he get tahrd a playin cartoon games, he figgerred he'd come back heah so's he could give people what fo. Him bein one a them eddacated a-leet and all, ya understand.

Y'all can tell them a-leets cuz they figger they gon' save tha world from us uneddicated deplorables. Y'all kin tell 'em by the superhero uniforms they weah so's we's all know they is speshul


Got one a thet poindexter, too, took when he first got back, showin' his badges and tellin me ta shut up …

Ah ain't God nor don even talk to him, ever since thet tahm ah was lightin farts in the bath tub and one a them went off big and burnt all the hairs off ma balls. Thet tahm a deep voice come outta the sky and sed "Don't Do Thet !!" An ah ain't never done it since … 'ceptin for mebbe last Thursday, if you wuz watchin', God. 'N ah wasn't ekchully lightin farts then, but Cousin Bernice she sed she done smelt sumpthin real bad and thought mebbe it was gas so ah had to check. Din't come outta mah ass so's ah think probly it was thet lasagna she et fer dinner. Ah told her ain't no good leavin thet stuff in tha icebox fer more'n a week but she don' never listen to me. Ah'm deplorable, ya see, n she's purty a-leet herself.

Ennyhoo, whun thet poindexter showed up n started givin orders, wull, normal like ah take it personal whun some pissant tells me whut ta do but in this case ah figgerred shoot, he kin wraht thet C code shit n ah'm only good fer discussin old banjo tunes. So fer the good a tha commyoonity ah done figgerred ah'd keep quaht.

But since then he ain't done shit pardon mah french, 'ceptin hassle other peeple and make the place kahnda miserble. Miserble fer us what ain't the Approved Modurn Computing A-leet Types, ah mean


If ya'all don't go along with tha rest a tha crowd then by gol, he gon show you them badges und make yer life purty miserable. Cuz thet's what he's good at, making people miserable. He don do shit for tha computin stuff and he don' do shit fer the soshul stuff, he mostly jes acts like a junyer high school ass what just got his first boy scout badge and gots to tell everbody how impotent he be.

See, this here'n "no politics" rule is fuckin pardon mah french agin shit. The days of Irix bein King of the Hill is long gone. If'n ya hang onta that then all ya gon have is the audience like I posted a photo of above. In a commyoonity people gotta talk and people gotta talk about what's important to em. It ain't no good when peeple's afraid to say sumpthin important to em because sum pretender


he's agonna deecide what is okay to say and what ain't. Fer example, what pee yoed me off in the first place was a topic that had about six er ten posts already, "Oh them pore people ! oh ain't this terrible !" which was fine with the poindexter but whun ah said, "Hey y'all ever think about WHY this happens ?" then suddenly it wor po-litickal and we cain't say nuthin but yes suh ! no suh ! three bags full suh !

His comment was on topic . There's a reason nobody buys this stuff no more. Without software it ain't worth donkey pee. And he done told tha truth, only to be junped on by thet dang poindexter assbreath agin. There's dozens of off-topic comments in forsale threads. Dozens. But poindexter, he jes gotta throw his weight around. He's a Big Man, ya see. With them badges, too.

And ah'm kinda sooprized at you too, Esteemed Hakimoto, cuz it ain't like you to be a Ass. Cuz thet legacy guy, this tahm he's tellin the truth. Ain't shit happened here for months, maybe years. Nekochan ain't good for software, it ain't good no more for discussion, ah don't hold no grudge against twelve year olds, we done had several through here over the years and they do bring sumpthin but when ya restrict all discussion to the level of twelve year olds, the place ain't worth comin to.

Which may be partly why very few of the people what used to come here does, no more. It's boring. There's nuthin happenin on the computin front and nothin on the personal discussion front. Ain't nuthin here, and that's partly because a thet officious little hall monitor with his honorary nazi merit badge.

Seems to me a shame to see thet talent wasted on pushin' people around when he cud be doin sumpthin worthwhile but lahk ah sed, ah ain't god. Y'all kin do what ya want, watch the place git more and more boring and po-litickally cerrect, where y'all kin stand in rows and chant the a-leet anthem, or chenge yer ways. Git sum software runnin, let people talk about what ails em and what makes em happy. Do sumpthin positive insted a shuvin peeple around, let peeple take care a theyself.

Up to y'all, ah gotta git back on thet train afore it leaves the station, ah got me sum Irix programs to use cuz unlike sum people heah, ah use mah Sillycone Grafx kompewter ever single day. Pretty busy, ah got ten er twenty Irix projects what ah gotta do mahself cuz askin here ain't no good no moah cuz ain't nobody what knows nuthin comin heah no moah (but ah wish ta thank all the peepel in the passed what used ta halp doin thet, ah do preciate it.
