xdg v0.9

[Zanthia]

Hi,

I am porting xdg 0.9 to IRIX 6.5.30. xdg stands for X Dwarf Gourami. It was based on my old window manager pixie and its successor pixie2.

The meaning is to make this rendering toolkit into a 3D engine and so on. Everything graphical

Everything compiles, but the link step fails still, here's version 0.9.0. IRIX will be the main target for it in the future. Linux folks should be able to use it also as its X should be more complete for it.

Here's the download site on Sourceforge :

What's your error? If you don't mind

Also screen caps would be excellent. Tool kits and such are always interesting to me.

My X11 is too old I guess but it compiles so I still have to investigate.

What do you mean by "Also screen caps" ?

 

[SolusRaion]

Screen cap is a way of saying screenshot. My apologies.

What I'm saying is I want to see how it actually looks

OK, since it does not compile I cannot offer screenshots *lol*. Thing is, pixie had plain green titlebars with a square for close button on the right. Stupid compared to 4Dwm for example but my adaption of blackbox in the year 2000 Again, you can compile everything on a Linux (even on e.g. an Indy) with a 2.4 kernel. See http://archive.debian.org. So a machine around 5 years around 2000 should be able to compile it.

What I can do is recompile X on my O2 but I am not sure it'll work. Canonical put many good things in X, such as a firm Nvidia driver but lost compatibility with older Xes. I know the (old) director of X in person but since google started to play around with android GN/Linux things got more or likely obfuscated. bummer.

IRIX 6.5 with Nekoware for example, so a MIPS-IV system should be able though to comply with my above xdg program as it's maximum 2007 X.

I have a lot of work to do so I cannot fully work on IRIX (now IRIX 6.5) all the time. Later on I will try it on my IRIX 6.2 Indy. Sorry to say but RL sometimes comes first.

HTH

It's no problem I'm not pressuring you to do anything. Do you have a screenshot on linux?

 

[Zanthia]

No, I do not do screenshots.
