Latest Bugs & Tasks
Ticket #12196 (When setting the label of a BTab, the BTabView's tab bar is not ...) created
As in title.
The BTab object has no way of knowing what BTabView it's currently in, and thus no way of calling Invalidate(). So I'm not sure what the proper solution to this problem is.
Ticket #12195 ([Network] silently quits upon selecting DNS settings) created
Clicking DNS settings in Network preflet quits with _res is not supported for multi-threaded programs. message.
Ticket #12145 (Network settings catkeys missing from pootle) closed
They are now loaded, and they will be available for all languages within the hour.
Ticket #12194 (Webpositive crashes at jpl website) created
Every time I try loading www.jpl.nasa.gov Webpositive crashes.
Ticket #7041 ([WonderBrush] slow at writing its main_settings) closed
Doesn't really belong to Haiku's Trac.
Ticket #12193 ([Website] update favicons and drupal theme icons for HiDPI displays) created
Also http://download.haiku-os.org lacks favicon
Ticket #12192 ([HaikuDepot] look for package dependencies in current folder) created
When installing a package (e.g. from haikuports/packages folder) it would be nice if HaikuDepot/package_daemon looked for its dependencies in the same folder.
Ticket #12191 ([HaikuDepot] make install button default) created
When individual package is opened it would be nice to be able to simply hit Enter to install it.
Ticket #12163 (MIME sniffing can't reliably detect html vs xhtml) reopened
but there is an XML header and a doctype saying xhtml transitional. So, this pretends to be an XML file. Only when you start to parse it and encounter the meta tag, you should switch to html (and probably start parsing from the start again?).
So, you can force the MIME type of the file to "text/html" using the addattr command.
I'm switching the ticket to enhancement and changing the description. I'm not sure what we can do to improve our sniffing system, it's based on simple rules to be reasonably fast, and XHTML and HTML may simply be too similar to hope reasonably telling them apart, especially in cases like your example.
Ticket #12146 (readelf errors when building packages for x86) closed
Never seen this problem. Closing for now.
Ticket #12190 (usb_modeswitch sends us to KDL if device is plugged in at boot) created
My Huawei E5377 G4 modem uses the usb_modeswitch driver. If it's plugged in when I boot up, I go straight to KDL.
OK if plugged in after booting.
Ticket #12189 (Cannot install to Samsung SSD) created
Just bought a Samsung 840 120GB SSD for development work. (Not 840 EVO, the original version.)
Created partitions, copied everything across, then tried an install from the old HDD. The install failed to load Deskbar, haiku_loader, kernel_x86, runtime_loader and Tracker onto the new drive.
So, I copied them over manually and did a 'makebootable' but it still fails to boot. The I attempted to install BootManager but it shows up an 'Incompatible format' error.
The drive is being identified as /dev/disk/ata/0/master/
Ticket #9720 (Implement signal handling in Debugger) closed
Implemented in hrev49356.
Ticket #89 (Charts blocks drawing while '2 Threads' is selected [...]) closed
I put a workaround in hrev49353. Basically, you could have a situation like this :
bigtime_t before = system_time();
SomeCalculation();
SomeOtherCalculation();
bigtime_t after = system_time();
and you could have some cases where after - before < 1 (either 0 or negative). When used in the division right after, you would have a division by 0 (NaN) that would break the logic further down and poison the animation as the ratio is calculated from the ratio calculated in the previous cycle.. NaN * NaN, etc..
So, I made sure the after-before was at least 1 and it seems to work ok. Since the time calculation was more or less only there to calculate a load ratio, it doesn't have to be extra accurate.
