MPlayer 1.0-pre3
Hi,
Just to let you know: on 9 december, MPlayer 1.0-pre3 was released and
rereleased (the first version didn't even compile on any big-endian
architecture.)
It looks like the colour problems of the previous version have been
fixed (mlib is mentioned in the long changelog), but stability is
terrible compared to -pre2. Arguably, only fixing the compilation
problems is not all :)
It repeatedly crashes:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /usr/src/MPlayer-1.0pre3/mplayer -ao null
./returnoftheking_nl480_dl.mov
...
MPlayer interrupted by signal 10 in module: decode_video
- MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /usr/src/MPlayer-1.0pre3/mplayer -ao null
rtsp://streams.omroep.nl/tv/tros/2vandaag/bb.tyler.rm
...
MPlayer interrupted by signal 10 in module: open_stream
- MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen.
I hope there'll be another rerelease for Sparc. :)
As a sidenote, when KDE's sound daemon artsd is active, mplayer says:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /usr/src/MPlayer-1.0pre3/mplayer ./Royksopp\ -\ Remind\

Killed
It is killed because my kernel (Debian's 2.4.21) oopses:
Dec 11 13:24:41 cruithne kernel: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer

Dec 11 13:24:41 cruithne kernel: mplayer(5701): Oops
Is this normal? The audio/cs4231 modules are loaded.
(No such problem when I kill artsd beforehand; the Royksopp divx plays
fine then, a bit slow but with the correct colours! :))

Pieter-Paul

This seems to be a problem with the serial console driver in the kernel.

Re: netra t4
Johan Verrept sent a patch to this list and DaveM on 26.Jan.2003 for proper booting on the T4, but it apparently never made it into the kernel sources (as per bkbits). It does not specifically address the SAB issue, but does address the fill_ebus_child issue. http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2003/debian-sparc-200301/msg00149.html E VEGH Karoly wrote: On Thu, Dec 11, 2003 at 08:53:03AM -0500, Ben Collins wrote: This seems to be a problem with the serial console driver in the kernel.

Configuring and compiling kernel fails on ultra 1
Hello list, something on my newly installed Ultra1 is going very wrong. I am running sarge on kernel 2.4.18 and want to upgrade to kernel 2.2.20, but when I run 'make menuconfig' I get the below output. It stops at this '.done.' and nothing more. when I do a 'strace' it also stops there and no further info. So I did 'make xconfig' and got another error. Also pasted below. Well, then I did 'make config' and that at least worked. But then after configuring I run 'make dep' and it stops with an error, which looks like a bug to me, but as sarge is pretty stable, I cannot really believe it. Now the error messages, in chronological order, I hope someone knows what is going on: --- make menuconfig --- shadow:/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22# make menuconfig rm -f include/asm ( cd include ; ln -sf asm-sparc64 asm) make -C scripts/lxdialog all make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22/scripts/lxdialog' make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22/scripts/lxdialog' /bin/sh scripts/Menuconfig arch/sparc64/config.in Using defaults found in .config Preparing scripts: functions, parsingdone. make: *** [menuconfig] Error 1 (note: the last line appears after I hit CTRL-C) --- make xconfig --- shadow:/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22# make xconfig rm -f include/asm ( cd include ; ln -sf asm-sparc64 asm) make -C scripts kconfig.tk make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22/scripts' cat header.tk ./kconfig.tk ./tkparse ../arch/sparc64/config.in kconfig.tk /bin/sh: line 1: ./tkparse: cannot execute binary file make[1]: *** [kconfig.tk] Error 126 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22/scripts' make: *** [xconfig] Error 2 shadow:/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22# make dep shadow:/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22# make dep make -C arch/sparc64/kernel check_asm make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22/arch/sparc64/kernel' gcc -E -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22/include -P tmp.c -o tmp.i /bin/sh ./check_asm.sh -data task tmp.i check_asm_data.c /bin/sh ./check_asm.sh -data mm tmp.i check_asm_data.c /bin/sh ./check_asm.sh -data thread tmp.i check_asm_data.c gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22/include -m64 -mcmodel=medlow -ffixed-g4 -S -o check_asm_data.s check_asm_data.c /bin/sh ./check_asm.sh -ints check_asm_data.s check_asm.c /bin/sh ./check_asm.sh -printf task tmp.i check_asm.c /bin/sh ./check_asm.sh -printf mm tmp.i check_asm.c /bin/sh ./check_asm.sh -printf thread tmp.i check_asm.c gcc -o check_asm check_asm.c check_asm.c:312: error: field name not in record or union initializer check_asm.c:312: error: (near initialization for `check_asm_data') check_asm.c:313: warning: initialization makes integer from pointer without a cast check_asm.c:313: error: initializer element is not computable at load time check_asm.c:313: error: (near initialization for `check_asm_data[307]') make[1]: *** [check_asm] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22/arch/sparc64/kernel' make: *** [check_asm] Error 2 shadow:/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.22#
