Was anyone able to get Self 4.1.1 to run on Solaris 2.5? Reinaldo Silveira tried on the Sparc 10 running Solaris 2.5 and on an UltraSparc running Solaris 2.5.1 and got the same results: ---------------------------------------- jade% ./Self Self Virtual Machine Version 4.1.10, Sat 06 Nov 99 19:37:28 Solaris 2.x (svr4) Copyright 1989-95: The Self Group (type _Credits for credits)

Self 4.0 runs just fine on these machines, and both Self 4.1 and 4.1.1 works ok on my Solaris 2.6 machine...
Any ideas?
Given that the differences between 4.0 and 4.1.1 are so small for the Sparc users, this isn't a big deal for now.

Gak!
BTW, I have gotten Self to work with SPARC, 24-bit frame buffers. It would take a bit of work to update Self 4.1.1. I'm not sure how soon I can get around to it. Would anyone out there use this capability? (I'll try to factor the amount of demand into my schedule.)
Thanks

He, he - it almost makes me feel ashamed of my "half a patch and run" tactic ;-)

It don't think it should be a priority right now, but once Self is running on Linux it would become important since true color frame buffers are way more popular on PCs than they are on Sparc machines.
Doesn't 4.1.1 run in true color mode on the Macs? That makes me very curious about what the main complication was. My guess would be creating 1 bit masks from pixmaps...

HI, Jecel,
Yes, Self already runs in true-color mode on the Macs. The problems are all in the X-specific code. The last few were getting the pixmap depths right, and fixing two primitives that interface to X from Self to handle deeper pixmaps.
Would the Linux port go through X?

I can't speak for Gordon, but from his email it seems that he would be happy just to get Self running with the console prompt. But I am sure that after that point, the extra effort to get X working would not be great (though I can't be too sure about that - one of my goals in life is to learn as little about X programming and C++ as I possibly can ;-)
