From you build log, it looks like you are building the version of tex2rtf from the wx distribution. Is that true? Remember we have a Julian Smart sanctioned for of tex2rtf under the Jazz++ source. Are you you trying to build that version? Pete |

Yeehaw! Somebody's back on the list. I might like to try building the most modern version again. It built a month or so into the last flurry of activity. Several weeks later I couldn't get it to build again. I'm suspicious that it might have involved my setting compiler related environment variables in the first instance, but not the 2nd. Anyway, are you guys going to be around here for a while now? Cheers.... -- Kevin |

It's good to hear from Don too. I just committed a change to the configure code that forces the use of wxWidgets 2.8.9 or higher. I just successfully built the current trunk of tex2rtf and Jazz++ on my Fedora 9 box... $ g++ --version g++ (GCC) 4.3.0 20080428 (Red Hat 4.3.0-8) Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

I found my emu10k1 card and freed a slot for it, but I've not as yet had a tinker with it (obvious reasons ;)....but over this weekend I should get around to that. Just a question for both Pete & yourself (seeing as you're both on fedora)....could you look at your /etc/security/limits.conf file and let me know if it contains any entries for your user account?..(and what they read if existent) I've discovered there's a way to tune user & user run task priorities from this location, and am interested with what fedora policy here is -- on a Deb install there are no user entries.

My Fedora box... $ uname -a Linux maggie.toyon.corp 2.6.26.6-79.fc9.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Oct 17 14:20:33 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux has the following entries ## Automatically appended by jack-audio-connection-kit @jackuser - rtprio 20 @jackuser - memlock 4194304 ## Automatically appended by jack-audio-connection-kit @pulse-rt - rtprio 20 @pulse-rt - nice -20 So anything running in the jackuser group limits the maximum real-time priority to 20 and has a maximum locked-in-memory address space of 4194304 KB. Anything running as group pulse-rt has the same maximum real-time priority limit and a maximum nice priority allowed to raise to limit of -20. The comments indicate this was automatically added by the jack package. The Mandriva I'm running for Kevin... $ uname -a Linux localhost 2.6.22.19-desktop-2mdv #1 SMP Mon May 5 20:55:05 EDT 2008 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2800+ GNU/Linux has the following * - rtprio 0 * - nice 0 @audio - rtprio 50 @audio - nice -10 So the maximum nice priority allowed to raise to limit is 0 and the maximum real-time priority limit is 0 for all users and the group audio has different limits. So no entries for my user account. DM> (and what they read if existent) I've discovered there's a DM> way to tune user & user run task priorities from this DM> location, and am interested with what fedora policy here DM> is -- on a Deb install there are no user entries. Same for Mandriva and Fedora. If you use the bash shell, I believe you can set some of this using ulimit in your .bash_profile. <bash man page> ulimit [-SHacdefilmnpqrstuvx [limit]] Provides control over the resources available to the shell and to processes started by it, on systems that allow such control. The -H and -S options specify that the hard or soft limit is set for the given resource. A hard limit cannot be increased once it is set; a soft limit may be increased up to the value of the hard limit. If neither -H nor -S is specified, both the soft and hard limits are set. The value of limit can be a number in the unit specified for the resource or one of the special values hard, soft, or unlimited, which stand for the current hard limit, the current soft limit, and no limit, respectively. If limit is omitted, the current value of the soft limit of the resource is printed, unless the -H option is given. When more than one resource is specified, the limit name and unit are printed before the value. Other options are interpreted as fol- lows: -a All current limits are reported -c The maximum size of core files created -d The maximum size of a process’s data segment -e The maximum scheduling priority ("nice") -f The maximum size of files written by the shell and its children -i The maximum number of pending signals -l The maximum size that may be locked into memory -m The maximum resident set size (has no effect on Linux) -n The maximum number of open file descriptors (most systems do not allow this value to be set) -p The pipe size in 512-byte blocks (this may not be set) -q The maximum number of bytes in POSIX message queues -r The maximum real-time scheduling priority -s The maximum stack size -t The maximum amount of cpu time in seconds -u The maximum number of processes available to a single user -v The maximum amount of virtual memory available to the shell -x The maximum number of file locks If limit is given, it is the new value of the specified resource (the -a option is display only). If no option is given, then -f is assumed. Values are in 1024-byte increments, except for -t, which is in seconds, -p, which is in units of 512-byte blocks, and -n and -u, which are unscaled values. The return status is 0 unless an invalid option or argument is supplied, or an error occurs while setting a new limit. </bash man page> I have developed on systems that limit the core dump size. This prevented me from debugging a core dump. i added the following lime to my .bash_profile to get a core dump... #========================================= # Allow core dump files of unlimited size. #========================================= ulimit -S -c unlimited > /dev/null 2>&1 HTH, Pete |
