Hello!

Forum: black on black and very thin white lines,  but I managed to register.

Huh, uncompressed works on P4 no sse3 box, as previously reported.
Thanks a lot!
Maybe I overlooked some option in kernel?

Then laptop: segfault again.

Hm, that's interesting.
What browser are you using again? All flavours of FireFox work fine (and do respect the CSS - all fonts are light so you can read them..).

Hans Dorn tested this executable on a Pentium-M system and they worked fine for him - also, these work fine on my Athlon64 SSE2 system as well, so I don't really know.

As to you forgetting something in your kernel, not sure - shouldn't depend on anything external since it's a static binary anyway.

I don't have a test system with a P-M here so it's kind of hard to see what's what, but I'll try and see what I can do.

Regards,
Simon

Hi!

Xeon: works on new, fails on old. (/proc/cpuinfo on seti forums).
Maybe... Failed boxes run 2.4 kernels, OK run 2.6.

forum: ah, firefox 1.0.1, big CRT, bad eyes on my side.  Very thin white lines, do not bother.

--edited for better readability, this post and next (Simon)

Simon:
Ah, that could be.

All my compilation and test boxes use 2.6 as kernel version.
I will experiment with compiling on 2.4 to see if that will make it more compatible or whether performance changes.

Regards,
Simon.

Simon:
I've recompiled the clients on Linux 2.4.

I installed a 2.4 kernel and booted it, then tried to execute my binaries - it gave me a memory access error. So I made new ones under 2.4 and tested them there and under 2.6. The speed is the same, the results are okay, but the 2.4 works on 2.4 AND 2.6. So I'm switching the downloads to the 2.4-made binaries, which should now finally work for everyone (I can hope, anyway ;D).

The download links have been updated, the URLs are the same.

Regards,
Simon.
