Ein paar mehr Informationen wären ganz gut. Welche GRX-Version? Ich gehe jetzt mal von einer der letzten aus.
yes, it was the version 2.4.6.
Welche Hardware? Ich nehme an, es ist *kein* Intel-kompatibler (IA32 bzw. x86). Wenn doch, wäre es evtl. ein größeres Problem. In dem Fall schick mal die Ausgabe von "gcc -E -dD -xc /dev/null".
it is an amd 64-bit computer.
Wenn nicht, dann wird in der Tat Code benutzt, der anscheinend veraltet ist. Probier mal beiliegende Änderung. (Anwenden mit "patch -p1 < grx.diff-byteorder" im GRX-Quellverzeichniss, dann wieder make ...)
I did this patch, it compiled a little but then the answer was following:
fdrivers/genblit.c:36: error: invalid lvalue in assignment fdrivers/genblit.c:36: error: invalid lvalue in assignment fdrivers/genblit.c:37: error: invalid lvalue in assignment fdirvers/genblit.c:37: error: invalid lvalue in assignment fdirvers/genblit.c:52: error: invalid lvalue in assignment fdirvers/genblit.c:52: error: invalid lvalue in assignment make[1]: *** [fdrivers/genblit.o] Fehler 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/kprattes/grx246/src ` make: *** [libs] Fehler 2
I see. Unfortunately, the code doesn't seem ready for 64 bit platforms. :-( E.g., the macros in include/memcopy.h often use "int" or "unsigned" for sizes, where it should use at least "[unsigned] long" or better yet "size_t". On 32 bit targets, the difference doesn't matter.
To really fix it would probably require some work. ATM, I don't have the time to do it right. I don't know how familiar you are with low-level C (lots of macros, memory operations, etc.). If you'd like to try it yourself, I could probably give you some hints ...
As a quick fix for this problem, you could try adding:
#undef memcopy #define memcopy memcpy
at the end of include/memcopy.h, but I fear more problems will follow that might be harder to fix. (But please let me know what happens, anyway.)
If it doesn't work (as I suppose), you could try compiling in 32 bit mode. AFAICS (I haven't used this platform, just saw http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2004/08/msg00084.html), this just requires installing the 32 bit compiler and libs (if not present) and adding "-m32" to the compiler options (CCOPT in makedefs.grx or on the make command-line). Of course, you'll have to do a rebuild ("make clean" or start with fresh sources).
im not sure, if the reply will be in the correct format. would be happy if you could help me. thanks. :-))
Well, I'd prefer plaintext (no HTML). Also, it helps readability to mark quoted text with "> " (as I did above). Most mail programs can do this automatically. And please note that the list doesn't set a "Reply-To" header, so by default, answers go to the previous poster (me) only, so please "group reply" or "reply to all" or something like that, or just make sure the reply goes to grx@gnu.de. (I'm quoting your mail in full, so no need to resend this one to the list now.)
