No wonder that OS X is so resource gready [20:10:57] <agentmumu> hehe [20:10:58] <fyysik> I think it is real reason why they refused to use BeOS as new MacOS [20:11:24] *** tqh has joined #haiku [20:11:59] <swer> interesting theory [20:13:09] <Dr3w> BeOS wasn't as complete as NeXT, which was their reason. [20:13:11] <fyysik> ik> i read that opinion already in 98/99 [20:13:31] <Dr3w> But it wouldn't have taken as long to complete BeOS as it did to turn NeXT into OS X. [20:13:54] <Dr3w> I think the real reason is Steve Jobs. [20:13:54] <fyysik> NeXT required almost 8 years from that decision to get mature enough to be used as MacOS [20:14:04] <Dr3w> lol [20:14:18] <fyysik> that's abou "completness" [20:14:19] <swer> Steve Jobs is the only reason [20:14:26] <Dr3w> Is that date of purchase to OS 10.2 ? [20:15:16] <Dr3w> Hey fyysik, by the way, nice work on FireFox for BeOS. I have been using it this weekend, and its *almost* ready for full time use. [20:15:35] <fyysik> with number of Aplle employees and disappeared need to write xillion drivers BeOS could be made mature in 2 years [20:15:41] *** MikeW has quit IRC [20:15:48] * fyysik uses Mozilla 1.7a [20:16:17] * tqh uses Firefox :) [20:16:35] <Dr3w> Hey tqh I didn't reaise you where here too - same thanks goes to you :) [20:16:36] <fyysik> and BeOs had that app which allowed to run MacOS apps natively on PPC [20:16:53] <Dr3w> Yeah, I use that to run PhotoShop 5 on my PPC box :) [20:16:55] <swer> Classic included:) [20:16:56] <Dr3w> SheepShaver. [20:17:35] <fyysik> so argument about lack of backward compatibility was also BS [20:17:40] <tqh> Dr3w np [20:17:58] <Dr3w> I can't help think that if Apple did choose BeOS, they would have had some great stuff, but they wouldn't have had things like Oracle for OS X and the Xserve and Xraid. [20:18:05] <swer> what binary format does BeOS/PPC use? [20:18:10] <Dr3w> PE [20:18:12] <Dr3w> or PEF/ [20:18:23] <Dr3w> Haiku on PPC won't. [20:18:32] <swer> the same as OS 9 - so that would have made things even easier [20:18:34] <fyysik> tqh - i did some experiments about faster drawing for width-justified text. Currently this is really slowest part [20:18:36] <Dr3w> it will use ELF like eveyone else. [20:18:55] <swer> currently, fighting with PEF and Macho coexisting in Mac OS X is a PITA [20:19:09] <fyysik> tqh - tried to use escapement_delta parameter in DrawString [20:19:22] *** m_eiman has quit IRC [20:20:34] <fyysik> tqh - it ALMOST work. Why almost? Because spacing array in NS DrawString may be non-equidistant, and, unfortunately, BeOS DrawString takes in account only SINGLE escapement_delta [20:20:44] <fyysik> applied to whole string [20:21:22] <fyysik> Win32 API has more mature drawstring version, which takes array of character placements fro string [20:21:57] <fyysik> this is why justified string drawing in Windows version of Mozilla/FF is much more effective [20:23:06] <tqh> fyysik cool [20:23:20] <fyysik> <P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"> [20:23:39] <fyysik> unfortunately we caanot use that trick:( So not that cool [20:23:44] <fyysik> cannot [20:24:19] <tqh> I'm curious if you could just skip B_WILL_DRAW on views and do all the drawing to one bitmap [20:24:43] *** Dr3w has quit IRC [20:24:48] *** Dr3w has joined #haiku [20:25:12] <fyysik> we are getting justified string with that, but not in way Mozilla expects - characters' placement is different from that expecting by mozilla. So, for example, if you try to select text aligned that way - you'll get "dancing" string [20:25:27] <Dr3w> Hmmmm.... something is making my BeOS install crash everynow and then. [20:25:37] <Dr3w> Its happened twice in the last few hours. [20:25:45] <Dr3w> I wonder if BeShare doesn't like BONE. [20:25:52] <tqh> ah, like characters jump around? [20:25:59] <fyysik> yup [20:26:34] <swer> Dr3w: BONE beta? [20:26:52] <fyysik> because Mozilla redraws part of string in that (and others) case, expecting that caracters are EXACTLY at place predicted by aSpacing array [20:27:00] <tqh> well, I'm not sure you saw but I was thinking of redoing nsToolkit with a separate GUI-thread and port. [20:27:05] *** LupusMic1aelis has joined #haiku [20:27:33] <tqh> giving it display priority or what it's called. [20:27:51] <fyysik> tqh - i saw it, be sure. And that's very welcomed idea. Only thing that you probably should rewrite bootstrap code, but it is different for Mozilla and FF, i suspect [20:28:23] <tqh> xpfe/bootstrap? or [20:28:48] <fyysik> i'm afraid that that and some other parts of xpfe [20:29:46] <fyysik> but maybe we already can rewrite something there for Mozilla, using FF changes for command line parameters handling [20:29:54] <tqh> I have to fix toolkit/xre and xpfe/bootstrap for handling the BApp in a nativeAppSupport class instead of the boot code. [20:29:55] *** LupusMichaelis has quit IRC [20:30:34] <tqh> I should setup a mozilla build [20:30:52] * fyysik wonders why JBurton is disappeared when fyysik needs him and has some energy to try to use his code in Mozilla [20:31:10] <tqh> I like the new build system, change a few params and you're building a different project. [20:31:28] *** LupusMic1aelis has quit IRC [20:31:31] <fyysik> yeah, it is more reasonable [20:31:37] <tqh> maybe has a sixth sense :) [20:33:01] <tqh> what's CO_PROJECT for Mozilla? [20:34:17] <tqh> ah, suite [20:36:54] <tqh> grr, client.mk don't care about # for CO_PROJECT [20:39:17] <fyysik> tqh - this is little project which demonstrates how to do width-alignment [20:39:29] <fyysik> run binary and stretch window [20:40:40] <tqh> yes, tested it. [20:41:18] <fyysik> hope Haiku will have more advanced DrawString() :) [20:41:57] <tqh> fyysik Are you doing any new patches for gfx and widget? [20:42:54] <fyysik> tqh - i mentioned in the blog that i'm working at font handling and string drawing. Partially took it from "JetGFX" code, but added more [20:43:24] <fyysik> wish to add also JBurton's caching for get_text_width [20:43:46] <tqh> ah, sounds good [20:44:08] <fyysik> but maybe i will do, using your code, new StandardWindowCreate + PreCreate [20:44:15] <fyysik> patch [20:44:36] *** Begasus has joined #haiku [20:44:48] <fyysik> as current version is so unaesthetical, so i almost going sick when starting to look at widget code:) [20:44:51] <tqh> saw that Olivier has made a cross-compiler, so maybe someone should try to compile Mozilla for BeOS under Linux. [20:45:15] <tqh> ah [20:46:04] <fyysik> only thing which is still unsure for me, if we really can totally drop native elements for Invisible windows... [20:47:15] <fyysik> because in theory it may affect focus appearence, when swithcing from popups, like URL-bar drop-down, to main window, or from dialogs, and all related to modality [20:47:28] <fyysik> this is only thing which stopped me from submitting patch [20:48:09] *** witten has joined #haiku [20:48:11] *** kos_tom has joined #haiku [20:48:14] *** adioanca has joined #haiku [20:48:15] <kos_tom> hi guys [20:48:23] <adioanca> hi [20:48:55] <witten> beos was neat [20:48:57] <kos_tom> I don't know if you know the Libre Software Meeting, an event that takes place in France every year.

[22:41:29] <DaaT> no, that's a serial port [22:43:15] <swer> j/k [22:43:28] *** mmadia has joined #haiku [22:43:41] <DaaT> i know [22:44:23] <mmadia> NathanW [22:45:41] <Dr_Evil> is USB really serial? [22:46:16] <DaaT> i was jk as well [22:46:17] <sys2> Universal Serial Bus [22:46:22] <DaaT> but in a way, yes [22:46:36] <DaaT> like sys2 just showed :) [22:46:47] <Methe> well considering the number of wires in a USB cable I' have said yeah it's serial :/ [22:46:56] <Dr_Evil> ok ok, I wasn't serious [22:46:57] <sys2> hehe :> [22:47:00] *** ConneX has joined #haiku [22:47:14] <swer> let's invent UPB then! [22:47:15] <DaaT> conclusion is, noone was serious :) [22:47:29] <Methe> :) [22:47:42] <sys2> swer, and eliminate the strenght of not having to have 200 cables? :P [22:47:55] <swer> of course! [22:47:57] * DaaT does some bungie jumping using USB cables [22:48:21] <swer> everyone's going 64bit these days [22:48:31] <DaaT> *nod* [22:48:38] <Methe> yeah except my dog [22:48:42] <swer> why should we restrict our preipheral conenctions to 1bit at a time then? [22:48:46] <sys2> DaaT, now thats a bad idea with a serial cable :P [22:48:47] <DaaT> shame on your dog [22:48:55] <swer> I want a 64bit connection fo rmy keyboard, so I can type faster :D [22:48:58] <Methe> yeah but my dog works for NASA [22:49:01] <DaaT> sys2, it was an usb cable, much stronger :) [22:49:11] <sys2> DaaT, still its only 4 cables [22:49:20] <sys2> a COM-port cable would be stronger [22:49:26] <sys2> and that also is serial :P [22:49:27] <DaaT> :) [22:49:50] <swer> use a wide-SCSI cable tehn [22:50:10] * fyysik wonders about USB idea. Something more featured and fast than RS232 but simpler than ethernet. Result? Yeah, faster. But is it really simpler than ethernet????:))) [22:50:23] <DaaT> i'll use a proper elastic for bungie, if you don't mind :) [22:50:44] <jonaskirilla> I'd use a spring roll. [22:50:57] <sys2> has the 64bit "architecture" changed anything more then how many registers etc can be used? .. like getting rid of that stupid A20 thing :P [22:51:11] *** lizdeika has quit IRC [22:51:17] <DaaT> never tried bungie actually... rappel yes, and loved it [22:51:52] <swer> the a20 gate is here to stay until all eternity [22:52:14] <swer> just like the 4 primary partitions per hard drive limit [22:52:14] *** mmadia has quit IRC [22:52:15] <dipp> would break to many stuff if you removed it [22:52:19] <Dr_Evil> the a20 gate really is no problem [22:52:48] <sys2> but using the bloddy keyboard thingie to enable high memory locations? :> [22:52:56] <sys2> there has to be a cleaner way :P [22:53:12] <Dr_Evil> you do that once during system boot, and you are done [22:53:14] <sys2> dipp, what? .. they had to change a part of the boot process? :P [22:53:17] <Dr_Evil> really doesn't matter at all [22:53:31] <sys2> Dr_Evil, but its uggly .. its ancient... [22:53:33] <dipp> sys2, bootloaders would not like that [22:53:34] <sys2> we need to move forward!
