What anything?  There is no general procedure for making an
arbitrary program work.  What are you trying to compile.  I'm
guessing it's a .tar file you downloaded somewhere, not
something you wrote yourself, but even that's just a guess.

Did you install the "development" .rpms?  Usually they contain stuff
you need in order to compile, even if you didn't really develop anything
yourself.

Most original software authors do not make .rpm packages, nor expect them.
In any case, anybody can make a file called README.  I have dozens of them
laying around on my machine.  Some are complete step-by-step instructions
for the totally lost, some just say "This is the new version".  Whose
README are you talking about?  Think about asking _them_ your questions.

To be a farmer, you need to like the smell of manure.  To be a programmer
you have to like frustration.

Sounds like you have software that is still under very active development.
Version numbers don't work very well if it's a new version every day.

No.  Not anyone at all.  Not without more info on what you are trying to do.

Subject: Question on ATM on Linux
Date: Fri, 03 Sep 1999 23:31:26 GMT

Hi,
   Some questions, can someone help?


1. Is there any licensing problem if I use "ATM on Linux" architecture
   to write the ATM driver? To what extent do I have to open my
source      codes to the public? My concern is that my PHY or SAR driver
code        cannot be opened to the public under the restriction of
certain          license agreement for this project. Is it okay that I
use "ATM on        Linux" under this restriction?

2. The current release of "ATM on Linux" is based on 2.3.15. Since
my       target platform is RedHat6.0(2.2.5) or above, must I upgrade
the         kernel to 2.3.15 or there's workaround like copy certain
files to        make "ATM on Linux" works on 2.2.5 or other production
version of        Linux?

3. Is there any other common approach in addition to "ATM on Linux" that
  ATM industry adopt to develop ATM drivers on Linux ?

  Many Thanks,


Wayne

So it's a socket not a slot.  I have never heard of a sound board that
runs off SCSI, most of them are ISA or PCI, but it could be done.

I'd rather say certain sound cards do not support Linux, rather than
vice-versa.  In most cases, if it doesn't work it's because the sound
card manufacture is not willing to release specs.  If they won't write
a driver, and they won't tell anybody else how, then it isn't done.

So if you are in despair, it may be because you bought a "black box"
with no specs.  The fact that these have become so common is one of
the most important reasons to support Linux.  Engineers work with
"black boxes" all the time, but black boxes with black input-output
terminals are an abomination.

I am making a charter device driver where the apps

Actually, I've seen countless situations where one spends hours or 
even days optimizing something to get code that runs slower!!  It's 
really not that rare such situation!

Furthermore,  I would even say that I prefer broken but easy-to-read 
easy-to-maintain, than correct-super-fast-100%-optimized-impossible-to-
read-and-maintain code...  Since in 99.9% of the cases you will have 
to change the code in the future anyway (unless it is *really* written 
in the future tense -- but in that case, it is obviously not
pre-optimized 
code!). 

As someone said somewhere (I must have read that in a book, where the 
author was quoting someone else  ;-):

Software is never written:  it is rewritten.

Dunno.  Actually, most compilers produce the *exact* same assembly code 
for both approaches.

There is a certain amount of controversy over UDI; it looks as if it
may have been established basically as a way of allowing commercial
UNIX vendors to "harvest" Linux device drivers for their own use.
It's not evident that much actual work has been put into rewriting
Linux device drivers to conform with the UDI API; it's not particularly evident
that *any* OS actually uses UDI.  

(This may be not unlike the situation with the adoption of a common
ABI for IA-32 systems; various folks (SCO, Linux, Sun, FreeBSD,
NetBSD, possibly others...) got together about two years ago, said
that it was a neat idea, decided that Linux/GLIBC would be the
"sample" implementation; OpenBSD rejected this; and then nothing else
seems to have happened since...)

On the other hand, CUPS isn't reasonable to be adopted by Linux as-is;
it represents a proprietary trademark owned by Easy Software Products.
A proprietary trademark by a relatively small company can't reasonably
be considered a "standard coming into the fore."

In any case, IPP (the IETF standard that is somewhat related to CUPS,
including RFCs 2565-2569, 2639) requires no more involvement from
kernel folks than did LPD years ago.

It sort of looks like there is not *tremendous* interest in IPP on
Linux, as may be witnessed by the fact that there seems only to be one
implementation running on Linux, and that mostly due to one company's
efforts.  The more critical point is that software that generates
printable material hasn't been adopting IPP.

Not to view documentation -- use an online info reader for that -- but
to print documentation.  You were lamenting the hard-back book.  I was
pointing out that the .texi file *is* a book, you just have to print it 
yourself, or pay someone else to.

AGREED.  I don't know why the FSF considers man pages obsolete.  Now I
don't particularly care for roff format either (which is why God
invented POD and other stuff which can be converted to man pages), but
the *idea* of man pages -- synopsis of usage, complete reference of
functionality, few if any examples -- makes info files look very clunky
for small programs.  Sure, large programs probably need more of a
manual, but `cut' doesn't.

As someone who already uses emacs/xemacs for most of my editing work, I
find its info browser natural and convenient.  For a vi user, I imagine
it would not be.  Either way, I agree with you about preferring the man
page format for most things.  Which is why I am glad that Debian -- the
only major distribution to say "GNU/Linux" -- still says in official
policy that not having a man page is a bug.

They also have a PowerServer 7012-320, which has been de-commissioned, and
I'm not sure of the state of the peripherals. I know the ethernet card is

note that there are some things required of lower level hardware

I cannot see a very effective sandbox. 

but notice how early microprocessors lacked the ability to
restrict memory access. later microprocessors, or also to say,
more sophisticated ones, it is considered absolutely mandatory.

I am suggesting this is not an accident: in the evolution
of the microprocessor, the concept of a sandbox arose in
the more mature versions of it. it was not within the
imagination or capabilities of earlier designers. but once
the power was available, it became an inevitable concept.

I am suggesting the OS has not yet matured, and in fact
the OS community is attempting to formulate an effective
concept of a "sandbox" relative to its capabilities. it
is slow going, but I believe an effective, bulletproof
sandbox at the OS level is an inevitability. esp.
when the OS designer community finally realizes how intrinsic
it is to a proper design, and the lights go off on
how to implement it.
