did another release of libgnomefilesel as i got the gtk filesel fallback working. clist bites me again. of course since then, i've found a stupid bug but it doesn't much matter.
built gnome 2 on my laptop, which seems to have found a possible bug in the linux kernel. passing 0 for the length to mmap() has linux returning NULL, whilst solaris and hp-ux (correctly, i think) return -1 in this case. sent mail to linux-kernel and am currently awaiting the large amount of flamage i will get. also stupidly didn't send from my @assbarn.com address, so lost the humour in a possible kernel traffic appearance. oh well.
after doing a (trivially) easy workaround for that "bug", finished building (almost) the rest of gnome 2. libgnomeprintui still wants some headers which have been removed (gnome-paper.h). overall, it built fairly easy. running things, OTOH, is another story.
anyway got the libgnomefilesel into bonoboui - noticed that bonoboui cannot call the nice gnome window icon functions which blows a lot. too bad they aren't in gtk. and i bet i can't get them in. oh well. got the bonobo_file_selector_* working with the gtk fallback (as the component hasn't been ported - it requires gal which might take some time).
got libzvt to build after mucking with configure.in - sadly zterm doesn't run. sigh. the same gnome-pty-helper that bites every time. seems odd that it would break, as the source is the same as in gnome 1! i have no idea what it could be. this is distressing.
overall gnome 2 needs a lot of work - lots of weird things happening in the tests. this is good, as it will give me something to do.
got a call from uhaul - there will be a truck to move my (limited) belongings on the 2nd, so i will have to live in the barracks for a couple of days. sadly joe's lot is somewhat worse, and i am infinitely saddened by this. hmm i think i have been hanging around meeks too much as i feel like i am talking like him.
still using galeon.
didn't sleep very well last night, and am pretty tired today. being on benadryl does not help this either. it is funny though how i have a nice sneeze attack every 6 hours or so (when the benadryl wears off). fortunately these days i only take 1 pill at a time so i am not a space zombie.
