<B2IA> (Butler) Welcome to BeShare.agmsmith.ca.
<B2IA> (AGMS) Yes, there is an nginx web server for Haiku! Though having a package isn't too useful since you usually have to compile it yourself to get the feature set you want.

<andreasdr> Good morning
<Anarchos> hello andreasdr
<andreasdr> Hi there. How is it going?
<tar[m]> i'm absolutely not familiar with haiku packaging, but was wondering if anyone would be interested in packaging this:
<tar[m]> macOS brew, debian, freebsd already have packages, just not officially in the archive yet
<andreasdr> Nice.
<andreasdr> Unfortunatly I have no idea yet about packaging in Haiku. Sure devs can help out.
tgschultz has quit [Quit: Going offline, see ya! (www.adiirc.com)]
tgschultz has joined #haiku
<Anarchos> andreasdr: packaging is done through the tool haikuporter, and you must write a file "package.recipe" to tell haikuporter where to find the sources, and which patches to apply to it.
<andreasdr> Nice.
<andreasdr> If we have 3d Ill like also do some patches to packages or something. Actually when I use haiku I see lots of stuff that can be done. But this is OK for a "new" Operating System. <3

<andreasdr> Yes. Nice. Ill rework descriptors today. Its broken currently.
<andreasdr> x512[m]: Very nice.

<andreasdr> My engine with 3d HW acceleration on Haiku. What a dream come true.
<andreasdr> I will not post it somewhere. Just for the record.
<x512[m]> Window size is wrong because of incomplete WSI add-on.
<andreasdr> <3 Super nice. Ok. In newer versions you would see the Grapics Card vendor and renderer in About popup. But no worries. Nice!!! <3
<andreasdr> Vulkan only would show "Vulkan Vendor" + "Vulkan Renderer". Its unfinished but works for GL.

<andreasdr> x512[m]: You can use "File/Open" and just click apply, this will open TDME2 as project itself, then click on resources in Folder browser. You can browse then and find some assets to try also the Environment Mapping scene. But I guess with 512 descriptors it will just crash. Ill fix this and let you know.

dinix has joined #haiku
<Guest7731> why?
<waddlesplash> for all the reasons PulkoMandy outlined on the forums
<BrunoSpr> hello all... what is the dbus-daemon actually for? Is it only for Falkon use?
<Guest7731> this change was actually directly based on top of the feedback that he gave me o_o
<waddlesplash> maybe if you want to make the sections inside the list collapsable
<waddlesplash> but a tab seems too 'noisy'
humdinger has joined #haiku
<Guest7731> but as i said on there as well;
<Guest7731> a) it is supposed to be noisy, it's a document consisting of thousands of lines with different material and different sections
<Guest7731> b) as humdinger and bitigchi also brought up, 1) no other app does the collapsable list, 2) this may work badly with names that already barely fit in the list
euandreh has joined #haiku
<waddlesplash> no, not a tree
<waddlesplash> I mean +/- expanding sections, an only have 2-3 sections that do that
<waddlesplash> like on websites, "accordion panels"
vdamewood has joined #haiku
<Guest7731> ... is repurposing a text box into serving the function of a button really a good idea
<Guest7731> ?
<Guest7731> i did spend a lot of time looking at this and comparing with what other projects do, e.g. AOSP/LineageOS, macOS, and there is a distinction between crediting contributors and software dependencies
<Guest7731> lineage, for instance, has this cute big mosaic that you can zoom in and out of, and of course, a different section for the copyright legalese
<Guest7731> i'm currently trying to translate that in a way that adheres to the HIG ("Good Software Uses Graphical Controls Properly")
AD_MOS has joined #haiku
<Guest7731> i am not sure if people generally don't see the clutter in that document as a result of being conditioned to ignore it, the same way you'd basically ignore a ToS document
<Guest7731> but i see a lot of clutter/noise in there
<humdinger> Personally, I don't see much wrong with the current AboutWindow. If the long lists of names can be hidden behind an expando widget, fine. But it's no biggie either way for me.
<Guest7731> there's more things under the names though
<humdinger> Better to add some useful feature. How about a live syslog view?
vdamewood has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
<Guest7731> ... that's definitely a very good idea
<Guest7731> okay wow
<Guest7731> problem is that i can definitely only see that working out with a tab system, or at the very least, both dropdown/expanding sections and tabs
<Guest7731> but this makes the interface much more cluttered than it has to be...
<humdinger> Or just a button "Show syslog" that turns to "Show credits" when the left view switches
<humdinger> (button on the left side)
<humdinger> (...right view switches")
<humdinger> I confused left and right :)
<humdinger> As PulkoMandy said, the credit/copyright view is more like a movie credits thing. Nobody really "uses" it for anything. Just to scroll down to see how many hundred people were involved.
<Guest7731> here's a proof of concept:
<humdinger> There was at one time an enhancement for an easter egg to autoscroll the view after 5 clicks on the Haiku logo :)
<Guest7731> humdinger: that has not worked in a long time, right?
<humdinger> yes. I think it was either removed or was a BeOS thing that wasnÄt implenmented(?)
<Guest7731> right now, the only easter egg is a call to the application that uses the `PrintRandomHaiku()` function
<humdinger> how's that egg triggered?
<Guest7731> not sure if you can even trigger it within the app itself
<humdinger> ah
* humdinger misses his name in the contrbuter list :)
<Guest7731> there's not just names over there though, i think it'd be pretty interesting if the "hey, we are using X, Y, Z" was accessible to the user as well
<BrunoSpr> It is only a "About Window", it it nice the way it is...
<Guest7731> how does what i propose, say, for the sake of it, fulfills the same purpose in an inferior manner?
<Guest7731> why is it nice?
<humdinger> How about renaming your tabs to "Credits", "Copyrights", "Syslog"?
<Guest7731> good idea
<humdinger> I misunderstood your "3rd-Party" as to be of any installed 3rd party app
<humdinger> If the syslog function were added, the tab solution does make sense.
<humdinger> I'd +1 :)
<Guest7731> Yeah, this definitely looks much more clean.
<humdinger> And I wouldn't worry about expanding names lists etc.
<Guest7731> I've obviously not implemented the Syslog functionality yet, but I'm seriously starting to get very comfortable with this a lot.
<humdinger> long lists of names are more impressive anyway :)
beaglejoe has joined #haiku
<Guest7731> True
<Guest7731> It did feel like the fact that there was a long list of libraries just completely kills off the "wow" that one would get after seeing how many people have worked on Haiku
<Guest7731> like "gooooood this list is so long. oh, there's a lot of libraries, that's why"
<humdinger> yes. but most people disn't make it down there anyway :)
<humdinger> You do keep the Haiku logo though, right?
<Guest7731> i'm not sure if there's anything wrong with me, but i sometimes love just scrolling back and forth on various things out of boredom
<Guest7731> yeah, i didn't remove it on purpose, it should still be there on official builds
<humdinger> heh
<humdinger> ok
<Guest7731> if i set the flag, it should appear there again
<Guest7731> what should the syslog tab actually do?
<humdinger> IMO show the syslog and add new entries live.
<humdinger> bonus points for a context menu with "Open in Tracker" to show /var/logs/
<humdinger> should syslog.old be merged?
<Guest7731> i have an idea (importing it with gray letters) to show that it is old), but that's for another time
KC1PZI has joined #haiku
<humdinger> Just don't overengineer :)
<humdinger> I think the main use is to see new entries live there and maybe copy&paste some lines.
<humdinger> For other rhings (search etc.) better to open in an editor (or log-viewer)
<humdinger> therefore the easy way to open its location.
<Guest7731> is there an example of another application that does something like this? could use some pointer to speed it up without doing that in a non-haiku-ish way
<humdinger> I dunno.
<humdinger> There is /haiku/headers/private/syslog_daemon/syslog_daemon.h
<humdinger> might offer something more than node monitoring the syslog and doing things manually.
<humdinger> just a guess, I gaven't looked really
<x86corez> Hello there 👋 We're having pretty interesting discussion in the ReactOS main channel now, the subject is:

<Guest7731> quick question: is porting LWJGL a valid project for the next GSoC?
<andreasdr> I think ReactOS is interesting for me/us later to have Windows build environments without needing to buy Windows licenses (if thats allowed at all)
<andreasdr> If it has 3d drivers it could be used also for gaming or something to replace MS windows.
<andreasdr> But I also think it takes some more years to be that far.
<andreasdr> I know intel 3d drivers are working already but not NVIDIA or AMD

<Guest7731> I have a tab and, in that tab, there are multiple different views. I need to keep track of the active one. Is a pointer whose address changes depending on which view is active (by re-initializing it everytime a _CreateXView(); function is invoked) a good idea?
<Guest7731> In other words, is the view generated from scratch every time a tab is opened, or is it stored in memory?
<Guest7731> I suspect that the latter is the case

<jmairboeck> Today I tried running my "portable" Haiku installation (that is a hard-disk on a USB-SATA Adapter which was before in my old ASUS laptop) in Hyper-V on Windows 10. It worked remarkably well, but I noticed a few problems.
<jmairboeck> Text mode is broken, so the boot menu is unreadable (just displays garbage instead of text)
<jmairboeck> To get usable network, the "legacy" network adapter has to be used. The newer one isn't even listed in listdev.

<jmairboeck> and probably the biggest problem: it booted in VESA mode (as expected) with 1600x1200, 16 bit color mode, but changing the screen mode is not possible. It failed with "General system error". Should I create a ticket for that one?
