Selection (again)
by Sebastian Geerken 26 Mar '03

26 Mar '03

Hi! I've just committed some changes, which fix bugs related to selection. I've tested all reports (at least those with a meaningful mail subject :-), the only page which does not work currently is "www.slackware.com" (that's a bug lying somewhere else). Those who send me reports without an exact description (and of course, anyone else), please check out the latest CVS and test again. Sebastian

That will probably be difficult Not very difficult, I think. It should be possible to differentiate the windowsbased on their titles. A "new" window has a different title from one that has followed a link. -- Niklas

Printing support
by thestar 26 Mar '03

26 Mar '03

Is there any work done related to printing support? Currently, it's the major reason why I'm using mozilla... Also, what is the current status on: Multiple plugins (there is apparently a rumour that dillo only supports one plugin at a time). Cut and paste (Apparently it's working nicely now...) ftp support. (Achieved goals states that this is already here) https support The bookmarks are great! Dillo is truely a very nice browser, and comming nicely! ----- My first post to the list with Ximian Evolution :)

bm_serv or dillo
by slymer＠slymer.org 24 Mar '03

Dillo acts a bit funny when I try to add a bookmark sometimes. For example, I tried to add this "Local: Procmail" right after I cliked "submit" Dillo started using about 90% of CPU and kinda' froze but I coul still shut it down without resorting to "kill -9". -- Registered Linux user #298569 Wad some power the giftie gie us To see oursels as others see us. -- R.

[Dillo-dev][PATCH] /etc/dillorc installation
by Patrice Mandin 23 Mar '03

23 Mar '03

Hello (or good night, as I should be sleeping right now), Here is a little patch to the top level Makefile.am, where there is not-so-clean stuff for installing dillorc. I was lucky to found the same thing in mesa sources. Also, 'make dist' seems to work (at least for me). -- Patrice Mandin WWW: http://membres.lycos.fr/pmandin/ Programmeur Linux, Atari Spécialité: Développement, jeux

Re: [Dillo-dev] Bug 433
by Geek 22 Mar '03

Thank you - the problem is solved. I completely removed using "make uninstall" then using my trusty Midnight Commander, hunted down all the remnants and directories and removed them. I re-downloaded Dillo, installed from scratch and it seems fine now. I had tried reinstalling one already to no avail, but I had not removed /.dillo before, in order to keep my bookmarks, cookies and rc file. So I guess the lesson here is - when upgrading Dillo, wipe *everything* old Dillo out completely, first. As a sidepoint, I'm glad it wasn't the kernel - kernel 2.4.x has BIG compatibility issues with my machine for some reason :-\ Thank you again. I hope this is of some use to someone :-) -- Gregg Behold, Andreas Schweitzer scribbled: > > The bug I am experiencing causes Dillo-0.7.1.2 to crash everytime I try to use > > bookmarkd.

Okay so, i've took some time to read your changes and something took my attention : IO/http.c : socket_len = sizeof(struct sockaddr_in6); The fact is that the structure sockaddr_in6 can be really big and cause problems and i'm not sure that the use of sizeof is safe. I think the best way should be to use a define that use sa_len on bsd compliant systems and the SA_LEN() macro on linux. Damien

Bug 433
by Geek 22 Mar '03

22 Mar '03

Hello, I am the submitter of bug #433. I just noticed the comment on the bug for me to write to this mailing list. I am a first time poster :-) The bug I am experiencing causes Dillo-0.7.1.2 to crash everytime I try to use bookmarkd. It also crashes when I try to bookmark a page or manually type dpi:/bm/ to the address line. I am using Debian woody with kernel 2.5.65 (bug noticed while running 2.5.63). The bug also appears when I boot into kernel 2.2.22. IMO, it's not a compatibility issue there. I have 128MB RAM, 30 Gig fujitsu HD, Cyrix-III, 700MHz cpu, Asus P7V mobo. Ummmm, I dunno what other info you fellas might need on this. Lemmie know. Thanks, -- Gregg

Valgrind
by Jorge Arellano Cid 21 Mar '03

21 Mar '03

Hi there! Sometime ago someone suggested using "Valgrind" to test our memory management. After reading its docs, it looks quite worth a try! As using Valgrind to test dillo is akin to using efence (mostly userland), I thought it may be very well done while I keep working on dillo internals. Is anyone interested? The home page is at: http://developer.kde.org/~sewardj/ Note that most probably the development version is required because dillo uses several threads (POSIX). Cheers Jorge.-

feature request
by Kenneth D. Weinert 20 Mar '03

20 Mar '03

I just wondered if there was a method to force dillo to treat a file given on the command line as HTML. I'd like to use dillo to view html attachments from my mail program, but since the temporary file doesn't have .htm[l] as an extension (actually, it is extension free) so dillo just displays the html instead of interpreting it. I don't mind working on a patch if this capability doesn't already exist, but before embarking down that path I thought I'd check with the experts as I didn't see a reference to this "problem".
