Don't worry. You have a quite current GNU/Linux. Can you tell whether Dillo was linked against NPTL? Cheers Jorge.-

[Dillo-dev]dillo-0.8.1.tar.bz2 final
by Jorge Arellano Cid May 14, 2004

May 14, 2004

Hi there, It's being a long period of testing. As I don't want to delay the next release anymore, the final tarball is there, ready for download! It is not yet announced, probably on Staurday, after Kelson is ready with the RPMs. The final tarball is not exactly the same as "pre2", it comes with a few fixes: - A fix on iterartors (on a very rare critical warning). - A fix to gray up the stop button on downloads (1 line fix). - A new link in the splash, magazines section. - A fix on pthreads detection code. The last one _NEEDS_ testing, on every machine! I may have said only on non Linux-based ones, but the bug was detected on an old libc5 based GNU/Linux! It should work because it more or less leaves the settings as they were before, but with the enhancement of not linking pthread to every binary. It's a simple test, if you have a working dillo binary after 'make', it's OK. That's all. Please don't be shy and report success on your platform. If nobody reports problems before Kelson is done (or Saturday), it will be released. ;-) Good Luck! Jorge.- PS: Please note that this release shifts the state from alpha to "very stable beta".

POSIX threads is one of "those" complex matters. It depends on several things including the kernel and glibc. To add flavour, Linux comes/came with linux threads, which is close to POSIX but not fully. The New POSIX Threads Library (NPTL) is POSIX compatible, and requires special kernel threading (as of 2.5.36), glibc 2.3 and other bindings (RedHat 9 was going to be the first to provide such environment). Furthermore, there are several different threading libraries among the platforms we support, so go figure! You can read much more than you wanted to know here: http://lwn.net/Articles/10465/ http://people.redhat.com/drepper/nptl-design.pdf As you may have begun to suspect after this short exposition, it's hard to know, and certainly I don't know, whether it will also run with Sony's 2.2.1 kernel! :-) Regards Jorge.-

[Dillo-dev]pre release
by Frank W McCormick May 13, 2004

May 13, 2004

Hi all Compiled and running the pre on Linux 2.4.24. No problems yet, but one thing that's been bothering me since Dillo was given DL capabilities....right clicking on a direct link gives you the DL but were it not for the eth0 indicator in ICEWM I wouldn't have any indication that DL was going ahead. Is this normal ? -- -------------- Frank McCormick Montreal --------------

You could use http://validator.w3.org to check for disallowed characters (it reports "non SGML character number 0"), but the ultimate reference is a) for HTML 4, the SGML declaration http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/sgml/sgmldecl.html where UNUSED effectively means 'disallowed' b) for XHTML, the XML specification, see http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#charsets which say, among other things, that all characters below 9 (HT) are disallowed. Thanks for a good question - I'm just finalizing a book on XHTML (in Finnish, sorry) and I realized that I had forgotten to discuss the character issue in sufficient detail. (I just realized that various generators may produce data with control characters.) -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/

[Dillo-dev]download problem on OpenBSD
by Riccardo Mottola May 11, 2004

May 11, 2004

Hello, using pre2 I went to sourceforge do download a file. On the mirror page I selected one and clicked on the "here" message for the non-stadard refresh which gives a direct link to the file (I could use it for d/l with wget). Clicking on it brought up a file location requester, I selected my home directory and gave ok. Dillo crashed with: Nav_open_url: Url=>http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ayttm/ayttm-0.4.6.tar.gz?use_mirror=hean…< Connecting to 66.35.250.217 Nav_open_url: Url=>http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/ayttm/ayttm-0.4.6.tar.gz< Dns_server [0]: heanet.dl.sourceforge.net is 0x721cb8 Connecting to 193.1.219.87 HTTP warning: Unhandled MIME type: <application/x-gzip> dpi.c:71: a_Dpi_rd_dpi_socket_dir: fopen : No such file or directory - /home/multix/.dillo/dpi_socket_dir debug_msg - init_sockdir: The dpi_socket_dir file does not exist dpid started Riccardo
