Problem with lastest versions
I've problems both with lastest debian package of GGI, all programs die with SEGV at ggiOpen, see an example: #includeggi/ggi.h int main() { ggi_visual_t *v; ggiInit(); v=ggiOpen(NULL); ggiSetGraphMode(v,GGI_AUTO,GGI_AUTO,GGI_AUTO,GGI_AUTO,GT_AUTO); ggiClose(v); return 0; } I execute this simple program in _any_ target except of memory, and it crashes with this backtrace: #0 0x804c6c0 in ?? () #1 0x40060c55 in vfprintf () from /lib/libc.so.6 #2 0x4006812d in fprintf () from /lib/libc.so.6 #3 0x40109aaf in ggDPrintf () from /usr/lib/libgg.so.0 #4 0x40109b40 in ggLoadModule () from /usr/lib/libgg.so.0 #5 0x4001b7b8 in ggiDBGetBuffer () from /usr/lib/libggi.so.2 #6 0x4001baca in _ggiAddDL () from /usr/lib/libggi.so.2 #7 0x4001bd08 in _ggiOpenDL () from /usr/lib/libggi.so.2 #8 0x4001ca82 in ggiOpen () from /usr/lib/libggi.so.2 #9 0x4001c92e in ggiOpen () from /usr/lib/libggi.so.2 #10 0x80485e5 in main () I've tried also to compile the lastest snapshot (99/12/05), and I got errors in all places where appeared EXPORTVAR and IMPORTVAR, for example: init.c:40: syntax error before `uint32' init.c:41: syntax error before `int' init.c:42: syntax error before `void' I need GGI to continue development of GGL, I finished the new 2D engine and I can't test if it works :( -- Regards _ /_) \/ / / email: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] / \ / (_/ www : http://programacion.mundivia.es/ryu [ GGL developer ] [ IRCore developer ] [ GPUL member ]

(I don't know much about mpg, so for all I know, this suggestion is "way out there"). If you just send I-frames, I think it would be relatively straightforward. Just keep a buffer and send it out at regular intervals. Second, and maybe a little more realistic, I was wondering about a 'sample' target. This could for example be an extension to file, where the screen is drawn to different files at the specified frequency. Would be excellent for grabbing screens to make animations. There is a sample "extension" in the libedemo directory. Extensions are different than targets, but if you learn how an extension works, targets should be straightforward and easy. See the GGI Extension HOWTO. http://mojo.calyx.net/~bri/projects/GGI/GGPG/ext.html -- Brian
GGI on PPC
It's been a while since I've followed GGI development. Can anyone tell me what the status of GGI on PPC is?

If the problem persists then, please give me the urls of the GGI-related .debs you are using, and I'll check it out at the Debian system at work. ftp://ceu.fi.udc.es/debian/dists/potato/main/binary-i386/libs/... init.c:40: syntax error before `uint32' init.c:41: syntax error before `int' init.c:42: syntax error before `void' If you use a snapshot you must take all the libraries from the same snapshot - your LibGG is too old. Oh! right, I forgot to compile libgg and libgii of this snapshot, thanks. -- "The artifficial intelligence will never exceed the natural stupidity" Santiago Souto _ /_) \/ / / email: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] / \ / (_/ www : http://programacion.mundivia.es/ryu [ GGL developer ] [ IRCore developer ] [ GPUL member ]
