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?

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?

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"

    • I'd say the first one failed to be as popular as Apple anticipated, but the easy adjustment here is to make fewer of them next time around. It would only be a "flop" if it isn't possible for Apple to recover the design and factory tooling costs given the number of units sold, which I doubt would be the case. It isn't like no one bought them; it just failed to become the new hot phone of the year.
    • You're right that it does not follow the plain meaning of the word, but in this context, it is a legal term defined in 49 U.S.C. Kind of how "wire fraud" laws apply even if a physical wire was not used. Given that it is codified in law, and it isn't just automotive journalists that don't understand evolving technology, I highly doubt congress would change a well understood term just because technology makes the term slightly less actuate.
    • This is exactly why I keep saying we are not ready for human free self-driving. These little "bugs" are may seem like random one-offs. There was also the Waymo that drove between police with drawn weapons and the suspect they were pointing them at. From a software perspective it is easy to understand how those extremely rare situations may not have been programed for, but that is the point. If AI needs to be told to watch out for every possible contingency, then it can never be successful. There will always be the possibility of a first encounter that the AI needs to understand to avoid.
