Slackware for Pandora 14.0

[Linux-SWAT]

I'm so frustrated i'm uploading a new -RC6 (I'm not a release candidate, i'm a free software !).


Should be finished in less than 4 hours.

[Askarus]

Oh no.


I had the same thing with PanDebian some days ago.


I know how this feels.

 

[hmc]

CONGRATULATIONS for this big step forward.


But LO doesn't start yet entirely? 100% disk space used probably means that something could not complete. But I wonder, why there were no error messages...?


So I guess the next donations will be for a 64GB card for you, right? ;-)

 

[hmc]

Oh no.


I had the same thing with PanDebian some days ago.

What? A never-ending LibreOffice splash screen? And could you fix it in some way?


Was it related to the LibreOffice upgrade? I didn't dare to run the upgrade yet (never touch a running system). Maybe this was a good decision?

 

[pmprog]

Hmm, I tried running the Code::Blocks PND on Slack, and it doesn't start. Says something about a .gdb.py file not being an Elf with magic numbers, and that's it, it vanishes


I'm might try downloading the new RC and check if I have the latest PND later.


I couldn't build my allegro game using my lib on Angrstrom, not entirely sure why yet... oh well

 

[ptitSeb]

The error you saw must not be the root cause of it not starting. The error is ldconfig complaining about python file being in the libs folder, but it's not a fatal error. Perhaps the problem is in the method I used to keep the Terminal windows openned. I'll change that in the next release.

 

[pmprog]

No probs. I only had a quick look, so it's possible I missed something important. I'll try again later and see

 

[Askarus]

Oh no.

No.


I ran out of space.


The update was fine but after I wanted to install some more stuff I ran out of space.

Meanwhile you can install it through sbopkg !

wxPython is already shipped.

 

[pmprog]

Ah, doesn't matter. Whilst Allegro5 built, I got it to build the example apps too, and they report that allegro fails to initialise.

 

[Linux-SWAT]

You should really start with allegro installed through sbopkg.


It will be the 4.4.2, but at least you'll be sure that the package is ok.

 

[pmprog]

I don't understand where you're going with this? I've used Allegro 4 on the Pandora before, but that doesn't help with Allegro 5 as [a] it's already built (I don't know those build options), and it's API is drastically different (meaning you can't slot the lib for one into an app of the other)

 

[crow_riot]

wondering ... is there any way to get this working within qemu on a windows machine? neither have clue of slack nor of qemu ... just giving it a shot and ask here cause i want some more convenient way of developing for pandora

 

[Linux-SWAT]

@pmprog: ah ok. Thought it would have been safer.


@crow_riot: maybe the vm is not needed.

 

[Linux-SWAT]

There's a problem with the RC6.


I'm removing it.


---EDIT: it was a chmod 744 instead of 755... pfff


Just bought a 64G ultra. This card has slow writings. Too bad they hadn't Extreme at the shop.

 

[hmc]

Will you upload a new RC6 soon?

 

[Linux-SWAT]

Yup, it's almost ready.

 

[Linux-SWAT]

Uploading a new-new -RC6 (I'm not a release candidate, i'm a free software !).


Should be finished in less than 4 hours.

 

[Askarus]

Does LO already compile on the 64 Gb Sd-card?


I'll wait until I get a 128 Gb SD for OS stuff with RC6.


As you have 64 Gb now I have to get 128 Gb .


It'll be within the next 2-3 Weeks.


Then I don't need an extra SD for Slackware.


I'll buy those Lexar cards as they might be faster than those cheap ones.


Maybe Slackware becomes even faster then.

 

[Linux-SWAT]

Of course it compiles !
