[rdesktop-users] Rdesktop on AIX problems

[Dal Bo V. <da...@te...>]

Hi list !

I have compiled the latest rdesktop on a IBM rs6000 PowerPC machine
running AIX 5.3 but I experience some problems.
=20
First of all I run configure which told me I had to add a couple of
dependencies (cproto and openssl) but then resolved those, "compile" run
smoothly.
=20
Then "make" ended up with an error:
=20
        cproto -DMAKE_PROTO  bitmap.c cache.c channels.c cliprdr.c
disk.c mppc.c ewmhints.c      iso.c licence.c mcs.c orders.c parallel.c
printer.c printercache.c  pstcache.c rdesktop.c rdp5.c rdp.c rdpdr.c
rdpsnd.c rdpsnd_oss.c  secure.c serial.c tcp.c xclip.c xkeymap.c xwin.c
lspci.c seamless.c >> proto.h
rdpsnd_oss.c:36:27: error: sys/soundcard.h: No such file or directory
        cat proto.tail >> proto.h
        rm -f *.o *~ vnc/*.o vnc/*~ rdesktop rdp2vnc
        rm -rf autom4te.cache config.log config.status Makefile
        ./config.status
./config.status: not found

make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.

Trying again but just issuing "make install", it worked and produced a
good executable.
Unfortunately running the newly generated rdesktop executable, I get the
following error:
=20
rdesktop -g1024x768 -a16 192.168.1.241
WARNING: rdp_out_unistr: iconv_open[ISO8859-1 -> UTF-16LE] fail -1
ERROR: xmalloc 0
=20
and the program closes suddenly while working with MSoffice.
Also, but much less important, I have a Italian keyboard and there is no
way to have the keymap working with special caracters.
=20
Does anyone have some ideas on what I could possibly alter in order to
make it work as it should ?
Would it help posting any of the logs ?

Cheers
