hmm well no its still good to find bugs. if chocolate-doom 1.2.1 was still working fine, i'll get in contact with simon (the author, i've been friends with and known for years now) and see if we can work together to squash it. he has been doing an excellent job keeping things as portable as possible so he'd appreciate knowing we could fix sparc64. if you're willing perhaps we can hook him up with access to a sparc64 machine to debug, else if you come up with a patch i'll definitely forward it on to him. finally he informed me he has been working on his OPL branch for just over a year which will be included in the next release, this includes a driver that will work with OpenBSD's OPL driver for those of us with old soundcards. I'll have to rummage through my parts and see if i can put something together to test that, that'd be the second OpenBSD specific thing hes managed to do for chocolate-doom, which i think is nifty considering hes a heavy linux user. very nice to see a linux dev that considers other platforms. the OpenBSD PC speaker driver is nifty for nostalgic purposes too :D -ryan > > edd-sparc% chocolate-doom -iwad /usr/local/share/games/doom/doom1.wad > WARNING: No known way to set processor affinity on this platform. > You may experience crashes due to SDL_mixer. > Chocolate Doom 1.3.0 > Z_Init: Init zone memory allocation daemon. > zone memory: 0x519e0000, 1000000 allocated for zone > DEH_Init: Init Dehacked support. > V_Init: allocate screens. > M_LoadDefaults: Load system defaults. > saving config in /home/edd/.chocolate-doom/default.cfg > W_Init: Init WADfiles. > adding /usr/local/share/games/doom/doom1.wad > =========================================================================== > DOOM Shareware > =========================================================================== > Chocolate Doom is free software, covered by the GNU General Public > License.
