Optimized build.

The last build of the KirstenViewer was not as fast as expected, missed to make a release build with optimization. I usually build with Henri's scripts making this for me. But as this code came in an other form that was not possible an I goofed. I had the feeling it was not as quick as I expected but never got the time to make clean test. yesterday I did, the numbers was so bad I had to do something. Lime add optimization flags. This runs well on my AMD-64, not tested on any intel props, it might not work as well there. New build here, code diff against 1.21.6 here. Full code is here and follow the viewer at her blog.

The irritating IM tab bling bug still havn't been fixed. I was a hot issue 11 of feburary, on RC0, today we had two code releases after that and they still don't have a working forx for it. You can make it party work in a debug setting, but with that all tabs blink out of order making it annoying to look at.

Blinking IM tags

There will soon, really soon be a new EC-ea realeas with a patch tyo make the IM tab's flashing again appear in a sensible manner. I did have time to test the final version of the patch before leaving for work. But hopefully it will work great. I hope this will make a good patch to close VWR-4575.

The code containd three small changes that make SL so much easier.

• Make all tabs flash at the same time. This was teh behaivour before 1.19 and the "ButtonFlashCount" could not be used as work around for this.


• Make value less that 1 on "ButtonFlashCount" have the buttons flash for ever, not that the offical viewer took values like -1 meaing 0 flashes.


• "ButtonFlashCount" now have default value of -1 making flashed go on forever

Balp Build -w for 1.19.0 (5)

Balp Build version of 1.19.0 (5), no major changes to the GUI but many stability fixes.

There are some irritating bug's left to fix, VWR-4575 IM tabs no longer blink when new IM text is received. A so called hot, issue at LL since 1.19.0.RC1. But LL have been working getting this back and we'll probably get it in 6 months, that's about the same time if took to get the friends list out of the communication window.

Balp Build: WL-c

Windlight is now out in version 77495, and I added the patches from the previews version and it runs. So here you go.

$ wget http://firstlook-secondlife-com.s3.amazonaws.com/SecondLife_i686_1_18_6_77495_WINDLIGHT.tar.bz2

$ cd SecondLife_i686_1_18_6_77495_WINDLIGHT
$ chmod +x balp-secondlife
$ ./balp-secondlife

I assume the problem with gtk and file dialog on suse still exist, this is made on ubuntu 7.10 and tested in that environment. I think the wrapper now is executable (e.g. chmod +x) isn't needed, I'm not sure i understand the moon problem correct yet, and to be honest i have no time to look into what the windlight code actually does.

Relese: Balp Build WL-B

Windlight is now out in version 76886, and I added the patches from the previus version and it runs. So here you go.

$ wget http://firstlook-secondlife-com.s3.amazonaws.com/SecondLife_i686_1_18_6_76886_WINDLIGHT.tar.bz2
$ wget http://www.acc.umu.se/~balp/second_life/balp-build-wl-b.tar.bz2
$ tar jxf SecondLife_i686_1_18_6_76886_WINDLIGHT.tar.bz2
$ tar jxf balp-build-wl-a.tar.bz2

I assume the problem with gtk and file dialog on suse still exist, this is made on ubuntu 7.10 and tested in that enviroment.

Release: Balp Build - 18.5.3 - v0b

A build for Second Life 18.5.3 with the addition of Nicholaz patches. It needs a install of SL 18.3.5 Linux version to run.
E.g:

balp@kitiara:~$ tar jxf SecondLife_i686_1_18_5_3.tar.bz2
balp@kitiara:~$ tar jxf balp-build-v0b.tar.bz2

Then start Second life from that directory with:

balp@kitiara:~$ cd SecondLife_i686_1_18_5_3/
balp@kitiara:~/SecondLife_i686_1_18_5_3$ ./balp-secondlife

Patches at the same place for download.

Feed back on the build to me, anders (at) arnholm.se. This version if build on Ubuntu 7.10, other linux versions might have different library versions and might give strange problems.
