This is one of my gripes about the current build system- you can't specify defaults for the configuration parameters. The current build system also has some quirks, like the warnings on ./autogen.sh. Of course these things could probably be fixed without too much hacking, but the current build system is also very linux-centric, making ports to Win32, MacOS X, or IRIX a pain. One of these days I'd like to completely redo pgserver's build system in clean, OS-independent python code :) > > I added > > < CONFIG_TEXT=y > < DEBUG_INIT=y > < CONFIG_FONTENGINE_BDF=y > < FONT_CLEAN12=y > < FONT_LUCIDA10=y > < FONT_CLEAN6=y > < FONT_HELVETICA8=y > < FONT_UTOPIA25=y > < CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN=y > < DRIVER_R3912TS=y > < DRIVER_SERIALMOUSE=y > < CONFIG_APPMGR_NULL=y DRIVER_SERIALMOUSE is unnecessary, but shouldn't cause any problems > > Is this reasonable for the Helio?

Since pgserver can work with zero or more input drivers, this shouldn't be necessary. It probably means you're using the wrong video driver. > > When I flash all this to the Helio, pgserver still doesn't come up.

Use the "panel" app manager. However, the fact that the "null" appmgr failed to load probably means you don't have the required widgets. > > Ya know - we can skip all this if someone, anyone (Matt?)has a working > profile.helio for picogui-0.43 and can mail it to me. This would also be easier if we had a better config system that made the dependencies between items clear, provided help for all items, and provided 'tasks' that could set up common options for different platforms. > > Mark > > > _________________________________________________________________ > The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 2 months FREE* > http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek > Welcome to geek heaven. > http://thinkgeek.com/sf > _______________________________________________ > Pgui-devel mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/pgui-devel -- Only you can prevent creeping featurism! ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Pgui-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/pgui-devel
