I hate how I miss little things at times. VS2008 is not supported, as are any express editions. http://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/build-instructions-windows "Visual Studio 2003 and 2008 are not supported."
http://groups.google.com/group/chromium-dev/web/building-with-vc-2005-express-edition "It is not currently possible to compile with the express edition because of ATL." Looks like I'm going to have to stand aside for a bit, until the Linux side is hammered down a bit more. (I'll play around with ATL, though... There's links to workarounds...) -Daniel On Sep 5, 1:57 pm, "Daniel Hagen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > You guessed it, I'm on a laptop. > > I'll definitely let people know when I figure anything out. > > Daniel > > On Fri, Sep 5, 2008 at 1:55 PM, Chris Vickery <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Just buy a cheap crappy card online for like, 20$...
