Is this supported with aMule? I installed the engine and it works perfect with all my gtk apps except aMule.

[lfroen]

gtk-qt - WTF is that ? url would be helpful.

[Gusar]

gtk-qt is a gtk-theme-engine that uses qt widgets for drawing, making gtk apps look like kde apps. It worked fine with aMule the last time I tested it. I think Ateo's problem is that he has aMule (wxWidgets actually) linked against gtk1, whereas gtk-qt is gtk2 only.

[Ateo]

Gusar: I compiled amule against gtk2.

Here's the link for gtk-qt-engine: http://xserver.freedesktop.org/Software/gtk-qt

The exact issue is.... I *CAN* open aMule but anytime I click on the transfer button to view my transfers, it bombs out. I can access every other part of aMule. Here is some info when I launch amule from terminal:

Code: [Select]

OOPS! - Seems like aMule crashed.

I'm pretty sure you're going to tell me "not supported" but it never hurts to ask.

not supported



no, really, that's soem gtk-qt bug then :-(
you should report them.

Greets!

[Ateo]

Okie dokie. Thanks. I just didn't know how I should have addressed first.

[Ateo]

Well. It was me. My compile flags were too aggressive.  8o

[skolnick]

Please Ateo, tell us your wrong and your right compilation flags, just in case somebody else is having problems with this.

Regards.

The flags I was using were:

Code: [Select]

-march=athlon-xp -m3dnow -msse -mfpmath=sse -mmmx -O3 -pipe
-fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops -frerun-cse-after-loop
-frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4 -maccumulate-outgoing-args -ffast-math -fprefetch-loop-arrays
I admit I was a bit creative with my flags. 2 packages started to give me headaches with those flags so I shaved down my flags to:

Code: [Select]

-march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe -mno-sse
... and now my system seems even faster.

I run an "unstable" gentoo system so I like to try out different things. The new flags was a suggestion from a gentoo developer.

P.S. aMule looks really nice with gtk2 using this gtk-qt engine. Works great too! Visually, to me, it looks much better than emule or any other p2p I've tried in recent times. =)

[Theetjuh]

So you say wxWidgets has no memory leakes anymore with gtk2 enabled ?

[Ateo]

I haven't used rc8 long enough to say yes. I can say this... with amule running, my cpu usage lingers at around 16%.. average.. depending on what I'm doing. Memory usage seems normal to me.

This is aMule 2.0.0rc8 using wxGTK2 v2.4.2.

[Theetjuh]

I've heard that GTK2 support in 2.4.2 is very bad ... but you're using it ?(

[a-snu]

mmh tell me how can you ride your mule with gtk2 ...

rc7+wxGTK-2.4.2/2.5.3 [USE=gtk2 unicode] linked to gtk2 worked well
rc8+wxGTK-2.4.2/2.5.3 [USE=gtk2 unicode] linked to gtk2 work well 'till open connections are   limited to a bunch

are you using an ebuild or compiling by hand?

[Ateo]

I made my own ebuild for rc7-rc8. I've attached it if you want to try it out. It's unsupported by gentoo and by me. From my understanding, it's amule + gtk2 + wxGTK 2.5.3 that's a problem. amule + gtk2 + wxGTK 2.4.2 is fine. You can also use gtk1 + wxGTK-2.5.3... Again, from my understanding. I may be wrong.

Assuming you're using gentoo just drop the attachment into your {portage_overlay}/net-p2p/amule and good luck.

[Ateo]

Got me... I linked wxGTK 2.4.2 to gtk2 just fine. Works with amule even. This is so cool it makes me want to slap my mother! :-P
