Flickr is a great site. The idea behind it and the execution are wonderful. My only problem with it is the speed. Pages seem to take way, way too long to appear. It’s near enough painful!
I’m now hosting the code for NeoMPC at Google Code. Currently only the last release is there, but the issues raised in the original post comments will be fixed soon, I promise!
I’ve been trying unsuccessfully to get Apache installed on my media box, in order to continue development of NeoMPC. I’d been getting an error message telling me that the build environment had changed, and all attempts at getting it compiled were failing.
Tonight I found the problem, in /etc/make.conf:
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -msse -mmmx -mfpmath=sse -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
You probably can’t tell what’s wrong with that line, even if you’re a seasoned Gentoo Linux user. Here is the correct line:
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -msse -mmmx -mfpmath=sse -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
Spot the difference? Look carefully…
Continue reading…I’m in the process of getting my Media Box up and running again, the intention being to set it up as a music player with my iPaq as the remote. This means the the NeoMPC project is not dead! I’m going to make a page for it, so it has a permanent home here on PixelHum.
