I'm pretty sure I have a version of this driver installed on my
Mother's ubuntu-based computer. I do not remember where I got it, but
I do recall that it works perfectly and I didn't even have to do any
xorg.conf acrobatics, it just works. What I am saying is that I'm sure
someone already packaged it.

Until grub manages to boot this here machine... please don't let it die!

I decomissioned that machine about a year ago.

Allow me to attach the .diff.gz to this issue.  It should apply
cleanly to the upstream sources from linuxcanada.  Most of the hard
work is already done, it is also FHS compliant (or it should be for
the most part).  A couple of known issues are fixed using dpatch.  I
split the database drivers out to separate packages, but I don't think
I ever bothered with drivers for anything other than postgresql.  I
haven't built this in a while, but I know it builds on ubuntu dapper
(for i386).

regards,
Izak

iirc there are ways to make a dynamic library even if upstream only
provides a static one.  I think I once saw this method employed for
another debian package: use "ar t" to get a list of objects from the
static library, then call gcc -shared -fPIC on those objects to also
make a dynamic version.  Might be a useful addition.  Not sure what
the policy is about -dev packages without a non-dev library only
version to acompany it.

Bug#311625: imagemagick: convert fails to create uncompressed bitmap

2005-10-26 Thread Izak Burger

Daniel Kobras wrote:

In a brief test, the command

convert infile.bmp -colors 256 +compress outfile.bmp


pilrc (palm resource compiler) still says:

   error: Pilrc does not support compressed '.bmp' files

Which appears to mean that outfile.bmp was compressed when it should not 
have been.  Also, the resulting filesize and md5sum is the same, whether 
I specify "+compress", "-compress rle" or neither.


It looks to me like it always does run-length compression and +compress 
is just ignored.


It still works if you use the imagemagick that ships with woody (I keep 
a chroot with woody arround for this sort of thing).

Izak

Huh?  I filed a bug against imagemagick.  Perhaps you mean it was fixed 
in imagemagick, but I did not see a new imagemagick package when I 
upgraded just now.

Bug#311625: imagemagick: convert fails to create uncompressed bitmap

2005-06-02 Thread Izak Burger
Package: imagemagick
Version: 6:6.0.6.2-2.4
Severity: normal


When trying to convert a 24 bit bitmap to a 8 bit bitmap with no
compression using this command:

convert infile.bmp -colors 256 +compress outfile.bmp

outfile ends up being the same as infile.  The file size is the same
although the md5sums differ.  pilrc (palm resource compiler) complains
that it cannot handle this compressed bitmap.  However, doing the same
thing with version 5.4.4.5-1woody4 on a woody box works and pilrc is
happy.
