Yes, we drop fPIC from CFLAGS. Base packages are quiet up to date except new kernel. Just because nvidia fails.

For openoffice and firefox with flash, I use the chroot trick to load the 32 bits version. However and especially for openoffice, the startup is significantly slower than on the 32 bit system. So I was wondering if some of you had tricks to fasten responsiveness of openoffice until they release a working 64 bit port. I use the following command : [strat at machinastratus]$ chroot /mnt/arch32 su strat -c /opt/openoffice/program/soffice.bin and, of course, /proc is binded to /mnt/arch32/dev as for dev and home. Secondly, I wonder if anyone uses the xf86-video-unichrome on a KM800 board since I can't get a working Xorg with it and I must stick with xf86-video-via. Anyway, these are not major issues, but I thank all responses in advances. -- Strat From pouletfou at gmail.com Mon Apr 3 22:56:28 2006 From: pouletfou at gmail.com (Strat) Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2006 22:56:28 -0400 Subject: [arch-ports] [Arch64] Slow 32 bit apps And xf86-video-unichrome In-Reply-To: <2cffd3d80604031726o6ef74458s8b8b238fe0bdd4dc@mail.gmail.com> References: <2cffd3d80604031726o6ef74458s8b8b238fe0bdd4dc@mail.gmail.com> Message-ID: <2cffd3d80604031956g3dd88c41x28682d2e318a8a6f@mail.gmail.com> > For openoffice and firefox with flash, I use the chroot trick to load > the 32 bits version.

Before trying to move to Arch64 I tried to play with a couple of 64 bit OSs (Ubuntu, Gentoo) doing video encoding with XVID. It was 1.5 times slower, than in Arch32! I believe that the code wich use a lot of mathematical calculations should be rewritten as AMD people suggest - using their mathematical libraries. Just the recompiling the source for 64 bit system doesn't work.

It will bind us to follow arch32 as much as possible but that's what a port only is. And that's ok. It would be to dangerous to have a separate tree so it would be a fork from the beginning on. That's not what we want to become. In our view we cannot see anything what holds us from joining your party. In my view we don't really need certain cvs trunks. I guess the i686 devs don't have the intention to move to svn so we will have to work with the same cvs they already use. For checkout we can use csup and for committing cvs. I suggest to keep using first pkgrel number for the i686 packages as you do now. So i686 would build every new pkg with a pkgrel nr. -1. When you fix something you go with -2. Nothing new. Even if nothing will make now use of it I suggest to add an "arch" tag to every pkg for each architecture. Just like Gentoo and Frugal do. So every i686 release will get // arch='i686' // tag. Every package the x86_64 devs will have to port. If it is ok everything stays like it is and we add // arch='i686' 'x86_64' // tag. If a 64bit bugfix is needed we will do a pkg foo-1.1 so only the x86_64 binary will be built. i686 fixes we could leave out if we are not affected but in almost every case we follow and do our own foo-2 pkg. Once we have a pkg marked with our arch x86_64 tag we can think about to try to automatically build next release. But before moving to current each time a 64bit dev will have to mark it for really working well. Is that a way we can go? So I don't see why we should wait any longer. Things like crossbuilding with pacbuild and AUR we can add later.

We'll set you guys up with pserver access to our cvs server (just like the TUs have). Then we'll set up a set of repo update daemons (just like the TUs have). Then you guys can make your PKGBUILD updates, tag your builds (right now we use CURRENT, you guys can use CURRENT-x86_64), and upload the built packages. A script will process the PKGBUILD updates and recreate the repos when it needs to. That's about it. Now, here's the catch. It's gonna take me/us a while to set it up. Work is crazy busy for me and there are only a few people who have experience using the TU daemons and they will need to be modified to work for your purposes. I'm going to set the clock at 2 weeks from today. By the 18th of April. we will have something for you guys to start contributing through.

Please do some more reading... >> >> - Syamajala >> >> Wether true or not, there is still some audience of powerpc users. Honestly, I would welcome a big group of potential users and a brighter future of powerpc on the 08/15 desktop market but I don't care that much as it is more like a hobby to me. It's fun, that's all there is to me. Yes, powerpc is not outdated just because Apple stopped using a architecture based around it. Quite the contrary, powerpc never was dependent on Apple. IBM still develops POWER and Cell which are basicly powerpc compatible, guess what a major part of supercomputers run on? Pegasos is building machines for desktop users who prefer a non-x86 architecture. Amiga is not yet dead either, so are Sony PS3 and Xbox 360 ('wish, the latter never used powerpc). As a matter of fact, OF+PPC is in theory way better than the nearly 30 year old 8086 which still lives in nowadays i686 or x86_64 to some extend. Apple was the first to overcome the obvious problems on the desktop market and a few joined in, like Amiga. It's only marketing that made the powerpc fail for desktops. Look at what is going on with MS Windows vs. Mac OSX on intel CPUs. First time I've heard about CoreDuo in Macs was when somebody claimed to have gotten Windows XP to boot with EFI. What's the point? Well, not that Mac OSX is outdated, just the crowd having their believes on what should be done. I don't think it's not worth to still support powerpc as you can see, it's just that it will stay in a niche on desktops or will be used in other sectors, not that it's outdated. This is reason enough for me to continue, fame is not everything. Cheers!

I just tried amarok-1.4beta3 and its not as stable as the svn build in testing, so I'm leaving the testing build as it is. I'll explicitly specify iRiver support in the next build. (iRiver support may be default, so try installing the package "ifp-line" and see if it works.)

I get this strange error : The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'. (Details: serial 1102 error_code 1 request_code 152 minor_code 2) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) This looks like a problem with X. The pacman -Syu command just before that upgraded plenty Xorg related packages so I tried reinstalling them but this doesn't affect the situation. Since this is really strange to me, and I don't have much time to investigate it, any suggestions would be appreciated. here are the packages that have been updated : [04/30/06 13:39] synchronizing package lists [04/30/06 13:39] starting full system upgrade [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded readline (5.1-2.1 -> 5.1.4-1) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded bash (3.1-2.1 -> 3.1.17-1) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded dnsutils (9.3.1-1 -> 9.3.2-1) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded gaim (1.5.0-3 -> 1.5.0-4) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded libdmx (1.0.1-1 -> 1.0.2-1) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded libfontenc (1.0.1-1 -> 1.0.2-1) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded libice (1.0.0-1 -> 1.0.1-1) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded libsm (1.0.0-1 -> 1.0.1-1) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded libxaw (1.0.1-1 -> 1.0.2-1) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded libxcursor (1.1.5.2-1 -> 1.1.6-1) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded libxdamage (1.0.2.2-1 -> 1.0.3-1) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded libxdmcp (1.0.0-1 -> 1.0.1-1) [04/30/06 13:49] upgraded libxext (1.0.0-1 -> 1.0.1-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxfixes (3.0.1.2-1 -> 3.0.1.2-2) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxfontcache (1.0.1-1 -> 1.0.2-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxi (1.0.0-1 -> 1.0.1-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxkbfile (1.0.2-1 -> 1.0.3-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxkbui (1.0.1-1 -> 1.0.2-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxmu (1.0.0-1 -> 1.0.1-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxpm (3.5.4.2-1 -> 3.5.5-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxrandr (1.1.0.2-1 -> 1.1.1-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxrender (0.9.0.2-1 -> 0.9.1-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxt (1.0.0-3 -> 1.0.1-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxvmc (1.0.1-1 -> 1.0.2-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxxf86dga (1.0.0-1 -> 1.0.1-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxxf86misc (1.0.0-1 -> 1.0.1-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded libxxf86vm (1.0.0-1 -> 1.0.1-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded mysql (5.0.20-1 -> 5.0.20-2) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded xorg-apps (1.0.0-1 -> 1.0.2-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded xorg-server-utils (1.0.0-2 -> 1.0.1-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded xorg-xkb-utils (1.0.1-3 -> 1.0.2-1) [04/30/06 13:50] upgraded xproto (7.0.4-2 -> 7.0.5-1) -- Strat From a.radke at arcor.de Sun Apr 30 16:13:17 2006 From: a.radke at arcor.de (Andreas Radke) Date: Sun, 30 Apr 2006 22:13:17 +0200 Subject: [arch-ports] [Arch64] Problem running firefox or thunderbird since system upgrade In-Reply-To: <2cffd3d80604301307g3fc1ebcarf663b64f36c99cdd@mail.gmail.com> References: <2cffd3d80604301307g3fc1ebcarf663b64f36c99cdd@mail.gmail.com> Message-ID: <20060430221317.28fa7e17@workstation64.home> http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=21052&highlight= it is libxfixes related. roll back and it should work again.
