Evgeniy Philippov 12-Jan-2012 [2433] | Or you mean debug that on my own? |
Kaj 12-Jan-2012 [2434x2] | Yes, there's not much I can do to debug remotely on your system, except giving some advice |
You'd have to follow the instructions on our development site to set up your Syllable installation for compiling software, then download the Syllable source code and start hacking the PS/2 mouse driver | |
Evgeniy Philippov 12-Jan-2012 [2436] | My OS of choice is however BlueBottle (bluebottle.ethz.ch) so I'd prefer to devote time to it. So that's a matter of time investments. E.g. I would not try hacking sources of Syllable... |
Kaj 12-Jan-2012 [2437] | That's the only way to debug |
Evgeniy Philippov 12-Jan-2012 [2438x3] | OK |
Or maybe I will try to hack. I will decide later, now I must leave. | |
Having a pppoe seems to raise my spirit for Syllable! | |
Kaj 12-Jan-2012 [2441] | :-) |
Evgeniy Philippov 12-Jan-2012 [2442] | BTW I think I will touch the instructions on a devel site. Is it clear how to do all of that, is there a clear link on a main site? |
Kaj 12-Jan-2012 [2443x3] | Yes |

How to Start Developing | |
Evgeniy Philippov 12-Jan-2012 [2446] | OK. I left. Turning off the screen :) |
Kaj 12-Jan-2012 [2447] | The Syllable source code is in the section Source Code |
PeterWood 12-Jan-2012 [2448] | Does REBOL/View run on Syllable desktop? |
Kaj 12-Jan-2012 [2449x4] | No, only R3/Core |
And Boron, ORCA and Red-produced executables | |
I produced Syllable Server to run R2 (and World) | |
Topaz could also run on both | |
Evgeniy Philippov 13-Jan-2012 [2453x6] | Kaj: BTW Congratulations on achieving a fast GUI at the OS! Even Oberon/A2 GUI is slower---though A2 uses bigger screen resolution. |
I had like 800x600 mode at Syllable vesa. | |
A2 Aka Native Bluebottle | |
Fetching all the development stuff and the desktop 0.6.6 source code... My MMV. | |
Was unable to copy kernel log to external filesystem mounted in rw mode. | |
It detects a PS2 AUX (mouse) port but fails to do smthings with a PS2 mouse a number of times. | |
Kaj 13-Jan-2012 [2459x2] | Thanks. :-) It would be a lot faster still if your video card were supported |
How is your external file system formatted? Did you get an error message? | |
Evgeniy Philippov 13-Jan-2012 [2461x22] | ntfs "Permission denied" (cp command gave this msg) |
I did a "cp -v file file" | |
I mean file1 file2 | |
And I was under root | |
It would be interesting to have more elaborate -vv mode at some variant of a cp command... | |
Installable on demand or by will. | |
I will unpack mc with a hope it gives a more elaborate message. | |
Though that message is probably reported by a file system driver, it could have a variant with more elavorated messages (i.e. more bloated driver). | |
-d | |
I.e. explaingin why it was denied. | |
BTW where's the best place to report those bugs: on http://forum.syllable.org/viewforum.php?f=4 or here? | |
To mount ntfs, I used "mount /dev/disk/ata/hda/1 ~/media/m1/ -w" and the fs became readable and dirs were searchable | |
I could move all these bug reports into a topic. | |
Into several topics at that 4 forum. | |
Also, bug: "cd ~/ntfs_partition_mounted/<TAB><TAB>" displays Cyrillic letters of file names OK (as a list), but "ls <the same folder>" gives ????????? instead of cyrillic letters. | |
Seems to be bug in ls. | |
mc reports Permission denied (13). /var/log/kernel reports assertion failure in ntfs_clear_inode under ntfs_write_inode : kfree of memory that was not kmalloc-ed. And subsequent failures in a form of stack traces. | |
These subsequent failures also related to ntfs_clear_inode called from ntfs_write_inode. | |
Also got a Permission denied (13) while attempt to copy a kernel log file to ext3 partttion. Under root. | |
no stack traces this time, and no relevant messages found. | |
It may seem that I've found a sources glitch with my mouse. A kernel log reports "IMPS2 mouse found" which means that appserver/appserver/ps2mouse/ps2mouse.cpp detected an Intellimouse PS/2 mouse. Maybe developers had no Intellimouse to test stuff, therefore there's no code setting up the mouse for that clause. I.e. it gets detected, but there's no special init (which must be there), only the message is printed and the mouse protocol is not switched (it must be switched, I guess). | |
Searching for instructions to build sources tree. | |
