Linux - Compile Guide and Support

[gregory]

tuxgame,
Crap, forgot about libsdl keep it. However I need you GSdx plugins.

Well I did not know about the title. I only update the console part

Edit: number version fix.

Edit2: I recompile GSdx with another linux (completely forgot about it). Please find attached.

Edit : clean attachment

Thanks for the reply.

okey, i have attach my libGSdx.so plugins. ( i tried bzip2, but i cannot attach it here)

and i try using your libGSdx.so binary, but i got the same error.
here the error from pcsx2-dbg log

Code:

btw, I try update my svn to r4571, and compile it.
i still got no info revision number in Show Console or the GUI.
looks like i need subversion version 1.6.16? is that true?
here the log when i configure it

1/ Release number must work with any svn version. Maybe you can try this small patch:

But we end up with duplicate symbol which is probably a bad things. I think we have no guarantee to use the good symbol. Potentially we have the following:

Otherwise I have no clue

Thanks for the reply.

1.after saw your patch, looklike my fault is because i delete all .svn folder from pcsx2 source, before i compile pcsx2.
now, i can saw svn version in console and gui.


2.hmm, my wxwidgets have libSDL 1.2 dependency, here ldd result:

Code:

[ai@Mandriva_2010_Spring pcsx2-svn]$ ldd /usr/lib/libwx_gtk2u*.so | grep -i sdl
        libSDL-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0 (0xb6af5000)

i have check wxwidgets.spec file, and i saw build requires libSDL devel.
here some of wxwidgets spec file

i will try to recompile wxwidgets without libSDL, and recompile pcsx2 again.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update:
Using wxwidget unicode, without libSDL support in the wxwidget.
it's work... thanks....
using r4517 , i cannot access pcsx2 gui menu, i cannot shutdown, or pause,
so to quit pcsx2 , i have to kill it.

[gregory]

good. I'm glad you are able to recompile wx. Very good I will open an issue on google to avoid to forget it. I'm not sure PCSX2 can do anythings about that.

You are not the first one with no gui. It seems related to wxwidget (changing the version fix it for one user). It was the 2.8.11 ! But that really strange. Launch from a terminal and copy paste the wx error/warning. Maybe there is something useful.

[tuxgamer]

hmm, i try upgrade svn to r4571 then compile with this option:

Code:

cmake ./CMakeLists.txt -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_BUILD_STRIP=TRUE -DFORCE_INTERNAL_SOUNDTOUCH=FALSE -DFORCE_INTERNAL_SDL=TRUE && make pcsx2 && make zzogl && make spu2x && make zeropad && make dev9null && make CDVDlinuz && make USBnull && make FWnull && make onepad && make zerospu2 && make GSdx && make SPU2null && make PADnull

when i try run pcsx2 with GSdx plugins, Onepad and SPU2x, it will crash.
and when i try with GSdx plugins, PADnull and SPU2null, it still crash.
no problem with ZZogl.
here the crash error:

Code:

The program 'pcsx2' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 119 error_code 2 request_code 1 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
terminate called without an active exception
Aborted

then i recompile with this option:

Code:

cmake ./CMakeLists.txt -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DFORCE_INTERNAL_SDL=TRUE && make pcsx2-dbg && make GSdx && make SPU2null && make PADnull && make FWnull && make USBnull && make dev9null && make CDVDlinuz

Still got the same error.

the try debug it:

[ai@Mandriva_2010_Spring bin]$

about no gui issue, i already delete pcsx2 svn r4517 source and binary.
so i cannot give the error log.
so next question, what is the best revision to try GSdx ?

[gregory]

Well better take the latest (well I use 4553 currently). Note to build all just use "make -j 2" (number of your core).

It is a new crash. It can be cause because of bad drivers/bad xorg/ bad sdl version. Did you try with my version ? Did you try several GSdx version? You can also try to get latest hg (mercurial) snapshot from libsdl site web.

If you want to try gdb, you must install gdk and gtk debug package. Then create a "break gdk_x_error()" and get a backtrace when encounter the breakpoint.

thanks for the reply.

yes the latest will be the best, but i try the latest, and when i compile i got new error. >.<
hmm, what do you mean by "make -j 2", is that when i compile, like:
make -j 2 pcsx && make -j 2 GSdx && make -j 2 CDVDlinuz , etc?

hmm, i not try using your GSdx yet, i will try it.

hmmm, what i know, sdl 1.2.14 is the latest, because the sdl developer already moving to 1.3

okey thanks for the hint, i will try gdb, or just revert back to r4553.

[gregory]

make <=> make FWnull && make onepad && make zerospu2 && make GSdx && make SPU2null && make PADnull ....

-j number_of_core <=> allow to speed up compilation. You get nearly a 4x on a quad core

Actually I mean the latest SDL 1.3. GSdx need SDL 1.3 that why it is included in the svn repository. SDL is still in development so they can fix some crashes in their repository,

i try using your Binary, buat still got the same error.

try svn merge -r 4553:4571 , give me rev 4554, and try compile, still got the same error.

then, i try svn merge -r 4554:4516, it's took to long, with my dial up internet connection right now, i got disconected before it completly merged.

i will try it later, when i get my adsl internet conection again.

about gdb, i dont fell good right now, i will try it later. (i'am to tired of work right now)
