Right, but you can get this by doing profile directed optimisation during development so end users/production systems don't have the overhead. Also it seems to me that at some point the bookkeeping and analysis overhead for

This patch makes windows zoom in and out of a zero point on create/unmap. I've cleaned up the formatting/style to be consistent with the rest of compiz (eg adding spaces around operators, tabifying, using C style comments). This patch could use some more work. It should only apply to decorated toplevels, but right now it also affects XUL menus (I guess because they are not unmanaged like

I know this list is meant for discussion of compiz specifically, but .... 1) I sometimes see compiz spit out "Could not bind pixmap to texture" messages, even though it _appears_ to be working fine. I randomly guess that this is due to me running out of video memory (iirc I have 64mb of vram). Is that possibly a problem? I think Vista and OS X manually manage video

For those who haven't seen it, the compiz forums are now at http://compiz.net/, along with the new spiffy logo. It'd be nice to have a basic web page/wiki there as well so people can upload documentation and so on. thanks -mike

Hi, I've got Chinese Windows application that appears to have a problem with Chinese fonts under wine (emulating Windows 98). It's available from here: http://www.gtjadzh.com/ (download starts automatically after some seconds, filename is setup_dzh5_fuyi.exe. When running "wine setup_dzh5_fuyi.exe" from a console, I get get to see a window full of garbage characters (see

I'm one of many many people who submitted a duplicate bug report when this happened to me, without realising quite how old this problem is. New Wine versions are coming thick and fast, but every few days someone posts another report that the same problem exists in the latest version with such-and-such a DirectX app. Does anyone know if this is ever likely to be fixed?

why there is no general dependency analysis for the "machin code"? perhaps it's because the instruction scheduling is only implemented for sparcv9? i am going to implement a dependency analysis pass for machine code block. the result will be returned in a boost graph (http://www.boost.org/libs/graph/doc/table_of_contents.html). just to check if it has already been implemented. it

The new SUBREG target-independent instructions aren't getting mayLoad/mayStore flags set correctly. For example, in the generated X86GenInstrInfo.inc file, there is only one entry for INSERT_SUBREG: { 5, 4, 1, 0, "INSERT_SUBREG", 0, 0, NULL, NULL, OperandInfo107 }, // Inst #5 = INSERT_SUBREG THe sixth field is zero, which means it doesn't have the the

Most backends use the SelectionDAG infastructure to do this kind of thing. (Simplifying things a bit) Each basic block is selected to a DAG based IR. Then

Could we have a centos-offtopic list please, so anything that would be considered OT can be posted there? That way it would keep anything considered as OT and list-noise off the main centos specific list. So each users then has the option of being on the main centos list, and/or the centos-offtopic list as well. That would keep the more experienced centos users happy, and allow us less

This affects only 3.7p1 and 3.7.1p1. The advice to leave PAM disabled is far from heartening, nor is the semi-lame blaming the PAM spec for implementation bugs. I happen to like OPIE for remote access. Subject: Portable OpenSSH Security Advisory: sshpam.adv This document can be found at: http://www.openssh.com/txt/sshpam.adv 1. Versions affected: Portable OpenSSH versions 3.7p1

Hi all, I'm attempting to run notes 6. I've tried some techniques from Mike Hearn text. However, I lack knowledge. Description of problem itself is at http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2484 After adding trace+ntdll to WINEDEBUG, I get NtWriteFile(0xc,...) in output both before "LookupHandle: null handle" occuring and in line with it too. As far as I can tell (I could

I installed Noteworthy Composer and it changed the font to music symbols. All applications illegible as all dialog boxes are filled with musical symbols instead of normal text. How can I reset the fonts back to normal?

I have a workstation with two separate drives set up with LVM. I'm buying an LSI RAID controller to set up mirrored drives. I'd like to clone the existing drives over to the new mirrored drives somehow, but not sure the best way to do it. The original drives & their respective replacements are all identical in size (250GB + 1TB). I thought about using Clonezilla but wasn't sure
