Dear Friends, I am Carl's brother, and I am in his email because he passed away last Thursday February 12. I have chosen everyone in his in-box from the last 6 months, assuming that they probably had some relationship with him online. I am compiling a book of thoughts from those who knew him,

Not sure I am considered a developer, because my contribution has been mainly to provide porting information for Sun Solaris, rather than to generate code. But as a member of the dev-list, I will send my choices, and they can either be used or discarded based on the ruling of those who do the poll:

Hi, Cristina.   These are excellent, and I especially like the last one, with the tree motif within the circle. It's a nice allegory for the P2P network, in the way an servent provides files to other nodes, or thru ultranodes to other nodes.   Outstanding quality of art too, far beyond the usual

[Gtk-gnutella-devel] Constant stalling on upload requests

2004-01-10 Thread Carl Erhorn
Hi! I've been experiencing constant stalling on upload requests. It does not seem to matter what client is used, although I have not seen this behavior with GTKG 0.93.2 clients. They seem to work fine, but Bearshare, Limewire, and other clients seem to hit the problem. Stalling appears to happen

[Gtk-gnutella-devel] TCP Programming Question in GTKG

2004-01-07 Thread Carl Erhorn
Hi, Folks. Would someone who understands the need for the TCP_CORK mechanism contact me directly for a short discussion on the issues involved? Solaris does not support control of fragmentation, which is what TCP_CORK appears to be used for, but it does support some other options that might be ab

[Gtk-gnutella-devel] Observation of 0.93.2 behavior

2004-01-07 Thread Carl Erhorn
Hi folks, I've been watching the operation of the 0.93.2 05/01/04 release, and have noticed that the thruput and remaining time for both uploads and downloads is often very inaccurate on my system. It's a dual-processor Solaris 8 system, running on a pair of Tualatin chips @ 1GHZ, using the gtk+-2

[Gtk-gnutella-devel] Can anyone duplicate this problem?

2004-01-06 Thread Carl Erhorn
Gtk-G users and developers: I am constantly seeing upload requests for 'entire files' failing in the last few versions of GTKG, using the gtk-2 libs. It may also happen with gtk-1 libs, but I do not have them built to test with, nor do I want to use them instead of the gtk-2 versions at this time.

Has anyone noticed that GTKG now seems to refuse all requests for any file, if they ask for the entire file in a single chunk? (NOTE: Most of my files are very large, between 100MB and 200MB.) I have noticed this recently, and believe that it is an error to refuse to deliver the file in a single l

Hi, Folks.   I was reminded again to mention this by the recent posts about the program icons for gtk-gnutella.   While watching TV recently, I saw an add for the Nintendo Gamecube, which has an icon made of a three-dimentional square (i.e., a cube), but they managed to make a really nice letter

2003-11-06 Thread Carl Erhorn
Hi -   I've seen a couple of people say that gtk+2 is not a supported version. Could we clarify that? Is it gtk-gnutella that doesn't support it, but which allows it, or is gtk+2.x considered an unsupported product?   The reason I ask, is that I assume the second case to be what's meant, yet gt

Re: [Gtk-gnutella-devel] Documenting Configure options

2003-10-17 Thread Carl Erhorn
Hi, Murphy!   In Solaris, the Makefile calls a script 'install' or perhaps install-sh, which uses the UCB install program to move the files. Look for a '-s' switch being passed to install, which instructs it to strip the executables as it installs them. I deleted this switch so that I could create

Hi, Clayton.   You'll probably kick yourself, but using the -L compiler switch in the way you are doing won't solve your problem. What you wanted was the -I (capital eye) switch, which tells the compiler where to look for additional *.h files. From what I could gather from your post, that's the pr

Hi, Folks.   During a session today, I happened to see some uploads to others showing up with a status of waiting, and a ETA time that went into the thousands of days! That must surely be an error of some kind, as it's not very likely that my system will exist for more than a thousand or two days.
