I tried IE/FTP and Firefox/FTP and as you say both reported they had 
downloaded 530MB but the files were very much smaller.


Used BitTorrent with no Antivirus or S/ware firewall (only the NAT router) 
and got a top download rate of 50KB/s and a 543MB file.


Used to use Gozilla as download manager... about 4 years ago it was 
great...now it just [EMAIL PROTECTED] up the browser.


Our local ISP was raping the dial-up for DNS/DHCP resources and the dial-up 
connections couldn't resolve URL's...we couldn't go to their ADSL offering 
as we had a different telephone provider and they bundled telephone and 
ADSL.


so we bit the bullet and got cable TV/2Mb/s SDSL (the cable was aready run 
to the house)... my poor old P1 can only get 97KB/s out of the 2Mbps pipe 
(approx 250MB/s should be possible)... but still if the FTP/Torrent site and 
intermediates are up to it can get good download speeds...


look forward to cutting the CD and try FGLive feedback on Win 32 Me/98SE 
platforms iminen.

You call that painful? FG CVS is over 400MB and I download it on dialup 
(and

Linux distros and about 3GB of GIS data per month).
All you need is patience my friend.  :)

 When it does complete the download, i
 end up with a file very much smaller than 530MB.

What are you downloading it with?
If you're using a browser then I'm not surprised since they often drop
downloads part of the way and then claim to have finished. IE and FireFox
both do this nasty thing.
Hopefully you're using a download manager. You can grab a windows copy of 
wget

and use that or use a nice GUI one like NetAnts.

..could also be your Wintendo setups.  You might wanna fetch a
lightweight distro like http://damnsmalllinux.org/ (50MB for
creditcard size cds) and use that to fetch and burn FGLiveCD.


Hey Arnt, just an observation I've noticed that alot of *nix  
users will
dis Windows at almost every opportunity but I don't nearly as  
many Windows

users dis'ing *nix... have you noticed this ?

nothing meant by it...just an observation ;-)




I have a Windows 2000 system (updated with latest service packs  
including Nero) that would never burn a cd reliably, even if the md5  
was verified, and even if I didn't use the machine while burning/ 
preparing to burn. (An Athlon 1 Ghz with lots of disk space).


I finally just gave up wasting cd-rs and download/burn everything on  
a mac os x system where I NEVER have a problem. (although I've never  
had any problems downloading on a linux system either. I never tried  
actually burning under linux). You could always try CD-RW, at least  
you wouldn't waste CD-Rs, but I don't know if that would solve the  
issue or if your drive supports burning them.


To download via BitTorrent:

You first need to download a BitTorrent application: see http:// 
www.bittorrent.com/. Here's information about the BitTorrent  
protocol from wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bittorrent


To get the latest FGLive cd, you download this file: http:// 
pigeond.net/flightgear/fglive-0.1-linuxtag.torrent


and then open it in BitTorrent -- in mac os x, you just drag  
the .torrent file onto the BitTorrent app's icon -- (and hopefully  
find a seed, there're 3 at the moment).


I've only used BitTorrent to download FGLive so I'm no expert. I  
think the idea is once you've downloaded fglive, you should try to  
keep running BitTorrent for a bit to allow others to grab a copy of  
the fglive cd image you just downloaded. Please don't move or delete  
the image file while your doing this!


I hope this helps...

Best regards,

Ima

This is a checksum that allows you to verify the correctness of the
downloaded file. Sometimes during download of large files even over
connections that should be considered to be 'clean' you may get bitten
by a few corrupted bits. You use it simply by running

  # ~ md5sum filename

and compare the result with the bublished checksum,

Or if you're lazy or have a md5sum file containing md5sums of several files 
put them all in one dir and do a :
md5sum -c -v md5.sums

-v is needed on some distros for more verbose feedback.

 Does Pigeon's FGLive CD run on your box?
 Does the CD FG run?  What sort of framerates do you see?

 No ... I haven't tried because I gather it's based around 09.10 (or
 atleast  099) both of which won't run on my box.  On 098a with raw
 terrain I can get  40-60 fps...with 3d objects it drops to 20-30fps.

 ..and, just where you guys hide the framerate display on that

 eh?

..the boot failed miserably on my box and I have a few ideas on why,
too many Morphix and FG developers on Nvidea's or some such.   ;o)
So I haven't started playing with FG yet.  I did like the glxgears
numbers though,  over 900fps on a 1xAGP slot driven by a 450MHz AMD
K6-2, I usually  see about 600, so I'm gonna move some hardware around.

..FGLiveCD boot workaround for ATI etc card users:

 ..what was the benchmark command line again, and, should

 eh?

..we used to have a wee tarball distro for benchmarking FG.
The benchmark command we ran in FGBenchmark-0.0.5:
' fgfs  --aircraft=c172r-3d --airport=KSFO \
--start-date-lat=2002:04:11:11:11:11 \

The FGLiveCD is an entire Linux operating system plus FlightGear plus all the 
drivers needed to run on most hardware on a single CD/DVD.

You don't install it. You just boot off the CD/DVD and it runs in RAM.
In fact you don't even need to have a hard drive in your system in order to 
run the CD/DVD.

There is no Win32 version and even if it was possible to make a Windows XP 
live CD (highly doubt it since the Windows kernel and system aren't anywhere 
as configurable as Linux) it would be illegal.

Dene,

If you download the FGLive image, burn it on a CD and reboot you PC from 
the CD,
you'll be on Linux just because it wouldn't use your harddisk, and 
hopefully,
you'll be able to experience FG 0.9.10 on Linux. That way, you'll know if 
it's
your hardware that is at fault (if it doesn't work), or your drivers on 
Win98

(if it works).

Under Windows 98 you'll need some CD burning software that can burn ISO 
images.
If you've bought a CD/DVD writer you normally get some burning software with 
it.
However there is plenty of CD burning software around with trial periods.
CloneCD and Nero Burning ROM are two which I have used in the past.

Of course if you had a Linux distro like Kubuntu installed you can just right 
click on an ISO file in Konqueror and select burn with k3b.  ;-)

 What's the URL to the image?

It's in the front page of www.flightgear.org :
ftp://ftp.ihg.uni-duisburg.de/FlightGear/FGLive/fglive-0.1-linuxtag.iso

or use BitTorrent.

As far as I know the --flight-plan=* option has nothing to do with AI.  AI 
flight plans are defined within each entry of the scenario file.

If it's AI flight plans you are talking about, then you won't be able to 
assign these using a command line switch.  AI flight plans are only specified 
within scenario files.

If you want to use the --flight-plan=* command line switch, then maybe 
someone here who has used that before can tell you what it does.  I think it 
has something to do with the autopilot.

Yep, that's correct. The --flight-plan option refers to the 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] type flightplan for the user controlled aircraft. Not 
for the AI.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] ..FGLiveCD boot workaround, was: AI Sim Object Properties

2006-05-20 Thread dene maxwell

Hi,
Having real problems downloading the ISO. I'm using my P1 as it uses 98SE 
and is less prone to crashes than the P4 using Win Me. The P1 can usually 
drag 70KB/s out of the 2Mb/s SDSL cable connection but using the link 
provided it only gets to a little over 20KB/s... consequently downloding a 
530MB ISO takes a painful 6.5 hours. When it does complete the download, i 
end up with a file very much smaller than 530MB. I did try on the P4 and 
ended up with an 80MB file. When I created a CD using this file it showed 
530MB used on the CD but when I booted from it I got the splash screens and 
got to choose a language before the screen filled with error messages that 
it couldn't access files... looked very much like a disk corruption. When I 
downloaded it on the P1, I ended up with a file of only 29MB. Very reluctant 
to burn another CD with this file and end up with another useless CD.


What's this BitTorrent that was mentioned and can/how do I use it?

Cheers

a) invoking with path relative to FG-Root to the ai flight-plan (*.xml)
b) invoking with full path to the ai flight-plan (*.xml)
c) invoking with full path and xml extension

will the --flight-plan= commandline parameter accept AI formated 
flight-plans?   ... the getstart.pdf didn't have much detail apart from 
saying that it was for users who know what they're doing...obviously I 
DON'T... :-}

   still just the question about multiple AI objects... any help
   including  *RTFM* would be appreciated (hopefully with links) ...
   I apologise for  wasting time, my only excuse is I'm keen :-/
 
 ..keen enough?  ;o)
 Does Pigeon's FGLive CD run on your box?
 Does the CD FG run?  What sort of framerates do you see?

 No ... I haven't tried because I gather it's based around 09.10 (or
 atleast  099) both of which won't run on my box.  On 098a with raw
 terrain I can get  40-60 fps...with 3d objects it drops to 20-30fps.

..try it anyway, if it fails on your box, we learn something we can use.

 ..and, just where you guys hide the framerate display on that
 launcher thing?  (No framerates yet, too busy debugging the boot.)
 
 eh?

..the boot failed miserably on my box and I have a few ideas on why,
too many Morphix and FG developers on Nvidea's or some such.   ;o)
So I haven't started playing with FG yet.  I did like the glxgears
numbers though,  over 900fps on a 1xAGP slot driven by a 450MHz AMD
K6-2, I usually  see about 600, so I'm gonna move some hardware around.

..FGLiveCD boot workaround for ATI etc card users:
hit [Esc] and use Grub's text based menu.  No, it doesn't cure
the first X config.

 ..what was the benchmark command line again, and, should
 we change it to automate collection of benchmark data?
 
 eh?

..we used to have a wee tarball distro for benchmarking FG.
The benchmark command we ran in FGBenchmark-0.0.5:
' fgfs  --aircraft=c172r-3d --airport=KSFO \
--start-date-lat=2002:04:11:11:11:11 \
--prop:/sim/fuel-fraction=0.2 \
--enable-fuel-freeze \
--prop:/environment/params/real-world-weather-fetch=false \
--prop:/sim/rendering/enhanced-lighting=false \
--prop:/sim/rendering/multi-pass-clouds=false \
--prop:/sim/rendering/bump-mapping=false \
--prop:/sim/rendering/use-display-list=false \
--prop:/sim/hud/draw-fps=true --disable-intro-music --disable-sound \
--enable-auto-coordination --prop:/controls/gear/brake-parking=1.0
', parks us in a C172 with a nice framerate display.

..we probably wanna specify and report window size and coloring,
and report hardware.  And somewhere.

  Scenarios always come in sets of three:
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
