Saturday 17. December 2011 Multithreading support is now built in nano (1.1.9) and works well. I wrote a hello_thread.na programm which uses 4 threads to print out the "Hello world!" message. This runs really nice. With the new opcodes is a lot more possible than before. Just imagine all the cool things you can do now! This is really cool and we will se what comes next... It's a real milestone now. ------------------------------------------------------- Sunday 11. December 2011 I'm working on multithreading support in nano VM. It's possible to run the "Hello world!" on two independent threads. Still missing: some kind of stack for the new thread, to get the caller arguments. I have to write some code for this. And a mutex function for variables is also needed. We will see... ------------------------------------------------------- Sunday 18. September I'm working on flow, the nano VM GUI and sound server. With SDL 1.3 it will be possible to open more than one window, so flow can handle more than one client. It will become a real server then. I checked out the SDL 1.3 via mercurial and I'm trying some things. It's still in alpha stage, so I'm waiting for the SDL 1.3 release. ------------------------------------------------------- Thursday 18. August Nano 1.1.5 and flow 0.5.4 released: Flow now has sound: you can play WAV and MP3 files with it. I'm working on a flow Windows version. There is a big problem: some DLLs can't be loaded. (Windows 7) The ieframe.dll and others can't be loaded. I don't know how to fix this. Maybe I have to wait for a update from Microsoft. This is a known bug. ------------------------------------------------------- Wednesday 29. December About Linux on the Lenovo Idea Pad U550: I installed Debian Lenny Custom 01160. Worked out of the box: - graphics (I installed the ATI driver) - touchpad - LAN - soundcard Needed some additional work: - WLAN with wpasupplicant Still not working: - webcam - fingerprint reader If you know how to make them work, then let me know. I'm using KPowersave for battery monitoring. Which works good. ------------------------------------------------------- Saturday 21. August I have uploaded two pictures of the moon, taken with my Bresser N203/1000 telescope. I shot them yesterday. ------------------------------------------------------- Sunday 16. May I have updated the hacks pages. There are two new hacks: the "propeller one" Parallax propeller board and my POV blinken [lights]. Both licensed under the GPL, so mod away as you like! ------------------------------------------------------- Saturday 15. May I'm currently working on a Propeller microcontroller prototype: the "propeller one". It has a serial port, TV out, keyboard connector, SD card connector and expansion ports. I can programm it now and run some stuff on it, but the keyboard connector is still untested. But I think it will work. I will put it on the hacks page, when it's fully tested. Momentan arbeite ich an einem Propeller Mikrokontroller Prototyp: dem "propeller one". Der hat einen seriellen Port, TV Ausgang, Tastatur- anschluss, SD Kartenanschluss und Erweiterungsports. Ich kann Programme laden und ausf�hren, aber der Tastaturanschluss ist noch nicht getestet worden. Aber ich denke er geht. Ich werde das Projekt auf die Hacks Seite stellen, wenn alles getestet ist. back to home |
