duktape error NetSurf OS3

[utri007]

OK I need to test, but :

I don't have any color/display problems with  RTG system
Both machines have identigal OS install. I have old 2gb hard drive wich I use for OS installltion, actually just copy files from it. It has very Basic OS3.9 with BB1&2, magic menu and prism2v driver.

Chris what you think about this?

I downloaded amikit for real amigas, there is no way that I would install it, but surely I can manually install it's datatypes.

Ealier today I tried Netsurf in HAM screen, it didn't change a thing. I ques HAM is not supported with guigfx and render libraries?

[utri007]

I can't answer you, sry, but if you want I can give you the Datatypes I took from AmiKit (I created an Archive with the datatypes).

Thanks for the offering, but I already downloaded whole package.

Tested, didn't help. Nothing changed and AmiKit seems to use akJFIF wich I used already. Though now I got more advanced prefs program to it.

[utri007]

I just deleted the line about datatypes, but NetSurf uses internal decoders in preference so I'd be surprised if it made a difference. Actually I think I disabled the datatypes decoder on OS3 as the functions I was using didn't exist in the old datatypes.library.



Intuition doesn't normally let you open HAM screens, ergo I've never tried running NetSurf on one.

Actually datatypes seems to matter, I can made a changes with akJFIF pref program wich are visible in Netsurf. I can double check it tomorrow. Clock is now 03:45 here, so it is early Morning already.

It is simply trick to open workbench to HAM screen with this.  http://aminet.net/package/driver/moni/WBHacksAGA

It needs PNG for the splash and for the buttons.  The browser itself does not need DataTypes as all the usual filetypes are internal decoders.  Furthermore, on OS3 it cannot use them (for browsing) as the code is commented out.

[edit]

Changes to Netsurf logo were because a lack of colors with AGA and changed background.

Changing jpg datatype settings doesn't change anything if netsurf logo is only jpg picture in screen.

[utri007]

I'm interested. Is it a version wich is downloadable from your github?

[utri007]

Thanks apj ! where is the user-startup file you talk about ?

System:S/ has most startup scripts, like startup-sequence and user-startup

[utri007]

Amiga.org's red problem is not  gone. But I noticed that majority of display / color problems are because of lack of colors. Opening Netsurf it's own screen makes Netsurf default start page looking good as it should be.

Could it be that DNADNL just opened it to own screen and noticed that it looks good?

Wich makes me wonder would render.library support HAM?

[utri007]

I can't tell you for Amiga.org, as it seems I don't have enough RAM to access it, but I went to the page I created for the tests and the whole pictures you can find on it are well displayed (the expected pictures, of course, so GIF, PNG, JPEG and ICO). So, I don't think it's only the welcome page which has changed.
Thanks for the user-startup location, I'll have a look.

Tried to create new thread to eab with Netsurf.

I can log on, start new thread, I can start to write text, but after I hit return and continue writing, every mark I try to wrote makes this error :

Assertion of condition "perror == parseutil_ok" failed file "utils/utf8.c", line 135.

Why is it so that error is because of true type fonts?

DNADNL

I'm running FBlit wich is small patch wich forces bitmaps to use FAST ram. There is only 2mb CHIP memory, wich is used Amiga custom chips. FBlit solves this problem.

So, I just tried my A1200 without FBlit and Amiga.org works, there is enough memory for that. You must have a background picture or something wich eats your emulated A1200 chip ram. After loading amiga.org there is a 300kb free chip ram. I needed to disable background picture.

[utri007]

Almost certainly related to the horrid text layout routines which always cause me problems.

Please feel free to fix them.

I do feel free to fix them, but unfortunately I'm not capable for that.

[utri007]

Even if I remove the background, that doesn't work.
FBlit, you say ? This one : http://aminet.net/package/util/boot/fblit ? OK, I'm going to check this out.
EDIT : When I launch FBlit, the system crashes ! ^^

How much ram you have total? How much when you get to OS?

I didn't say FBlit that you should try it. I'm prety sure that it doesn't work with emulatos, it hits hardware directly.

[utri007]

I'm on a Raspberry Pi 2, so basically 1GB RAM,
For Happiga, I think its 128 MB, but I'm not sure about it. Here are the data : http://puu.sh/qiSe2/2266414bfe.jpg

You have 8mb chip ram :O and it doesn't work??

If clib/clib2 are trashing memory also with ducktape, there is three options :

1. Get support from Olsen as he is maintainer of clib. He has already hinted to his will to help.
2. Compile it against libnix like wawrzon suggested. Wich could be usefull test anyway? Of course depending how much additional work it would cause?
3. Write own memory system to Netsurf / Ducktape.

[utri007]

Just quick question :

People are testing these builds now in vampire irc chanel. Seems that DNADNL build from github has wrong colors and it is much slower than beta build in Chris' home page?

Why?

Haven't tested this myself, but seems reliable.

[utri007]

As I said before and in the README (if I recall well), the NetSurf AmigaOS3 version on my GitHub isn't updated every day, so some changes are not included in (that's the case for the images). But I'll compile it again, now.

I don't know how old compile Chris' version is, but there shouldn't be a big diffrence? Could you compile it like apj hinted?

my version with -m68020 and this works without fpu too.
(-m68020-60 doesn't).

That would make many Vampire FPGA accelerator users happy

[utri007]

Are you sure the current build (test build on cy2, not the Aminet one) isn't working?

I'm 99% sure that freeaks talks version here : http://www.unsatisfactorysoftware.co.uk/index.php?pg=netsurf

At least he said so in irc

[utri007]

@utri007 & @freeaks OK, the NetSurf Archive available in my GitHub is now whole new fresh (without DukTape) ! ^^ You can test it if you want.

Download link doesn't work

https://github.com/DNADNL/NetScript gives 404 error
