From make World:

bison -y -d pswparser.y

/bin/sh: line 1: bison: command not found

I guess I have to install bison as well. Put it on the list with autoconf, cvs, gcc...

I have a question... Why is it that I want to install something, if that something is lets say at CD1, it asks CD2, then CD4, then CD3 and then CD1? It doesn't read anything from the other 3 cds, stupid Mandrake 10...

And flex :crazy: Put that on the list too.

EDIT:

What the hell is that now? What do I need to do?

hey guys, I finally plucked up the courage to install it. And it's GREAT! These shadows are NICE and transparency.

The only thing I haven't figured out yet is how to get windows to automatically go transparent when I drag them (in gnome 2.6.3) and how to get xcompmgr to run at startup?

And has anyone noticed during window minimzation small black lines left on the desktop? I'm using the .905 release...They go away when you drag a window over it.

Has anyone been able to build this on Fedora Core 2? I just tried this morning and 'make World' bombed out:

making all in lib/fontconfig...

Hail!

I have installed the 6.7.99.904 release of X.org and I got translucency and shadows working, however it is really bad performance, when moving the windows they lag like hell aswell as switching between them.

My computer:

700++ mb ram

1,4 ghz amd athlon

ati radeon 7200

It doesn't seem like you have this problem but does anyone know anything?

to have xcompmgr to go on startup add it to your .xinitrc file for example mine says

exec fluxbox & xcompmgr -c

Alright I have it all installed and it all works fine... until I enable the composite manager in xorg.conf. When I have the composite manager enabled, in flux I seemingly don't have "layers." So basically, I can't bring a window into focus, they stay in order on the desktop from the time the window was opened, and I can't bring any to the front. Also, when I start up xcompmgr, windows "stick." I don't know any better way to put this. When I move a window, the window moves, but it leaves it's print where it was previously. I hope you can understand that in those terms.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Should I install, or fix something?

I'll take a stab in the dark and say you need the pam development files. Didn't say which distro but for ubuntu/debian thats package "libpam0g-dev" and for redhat/fedora thats "pam-devel"

    • Sony's region restrictions on PC begin lifting, bringing back PlayStation ports for everyone by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe 2023 was when Sony began its region-locking initiative on the PC platform. The move affected over 100 countries, restricting the purchase of popular PlayStation ports and live service experiences for anyone in the regions outside of Sony's choosing. However, it seems the company is finally opening up access to these countries, starting today. While Sony has made no official announcements, which was also how the original restrictions came to be, users in these regions have begun seeing most of the publisher's catalog reappearing on their Steam store platforms. The change can be seen on affected games' SteamDB histories as well. For example, on Helldivers 2, a popular but blocked multiplayer game from before, it can be seen that the 'PurchaseRestrictedCountries' flag has been removed from a large number of countries just a few hours ago, on June 13. The controversy began in 2023 when Sony began requiring PlayStation Network accounts for their PC ports, even for games that did not have any online elements. Following an uproar, especially regarding Helldivers 2, the company reversed course and made it an optional account on PC. Unfortunately, Sony did not lift the regional restrictions it placed on the countries that do not officially support PlayStation Network accounts, which amounts to well over 100 regions. As for what may have changed the company's mind about this, Stellar Blade may have played a big role. The Sony-published action game by Shift Up just released on PC to an absolutely massive audience, with it already touting almost 200,000 concurrent players on the Steam platform. While its demo was originally region restricted, the developer had worked with Sony to remove these locks and launch the game globally. Just a few days later, almost the entire PlayStation catalog has gone through the same process. Interestingly, while massive PlayStation titles like Helldivers 2, God of War Ragnarok, Spider-Man 2, and The Last of Us Part II Remastered are back to being available across most regions, it seems Ghost of Tsushima is still under the original restrictions. It's unclear why the title has not joined the rest in shedding its locks.
    • Easy to switch off Ai on macOS, just a couple of clicks, something that is not possible on Windows, it is just hidden. Even Android it is possible at the moment to switch off AI, by not installing the app and keeping Google Assistant as it is. Not really possible to use anything else but IOS or Android for smartphones, since that is all that is available, unless I go for a non-smart phone. My problem, certainly with Windows, is that Ms thinks we all want to use AI and don't make it easy to disable. I only use my Windows machine for games these days and will be staying with Windows 10. I use my Mac for everything else, at least Apple gives the choice as i said above to turn AI off.
    • I think X3D is distinct from "X" alone, weren't most early X3D chips clock locked?
