Testing Spice

Alejandro Leiva — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 10:58:48 +0000

Spice is a new and promising protocol for interaction with virtualized desktop devices.

Recipe to install it

#!/bin/sh set -x


SPICE_VERSION="master"

SPICE_VERSION="0.8"
sudo apt-get install git libtool autotools-dev autoconf automake g++
sudo apt-get install libdirectfb-dev
sudo apt-get install liblog4cpp5-dev libavcodec-dev libssl-dev xlibmesa-glu-dev libasound-dev libpng12-dev libfreetype6-dev libfontconfig1-dev libogg-dev libxrandr-dev kvm libgcrypt-dev libsdl-dev libnss3-dev libpixman-1-dev libxfixes-dev libjpeg8-dev libsasl2-dev python-pyparsing
rm -f celt-0.5.1.3.tar.gz

wget http://downloads.us.xiph.org/releases/celt/celt-0.5.1.3.tar.gz

tar xvzf celt-0.5.1.3.tar.gz

cd celt-0.5.1.3

./configure

make

sudo make install

cd ..
git clone git://cgit.freedesktop.org/pixman

cd pixman

./autogen.sh

make

sudo make install

cd ..
git clone git://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/spice-protocol

cd spice-protocol

git checkout $SPICE_VERSION

./autogen.sh

make

sudo make install

cd ..
git clone git://git.freedesktop.org/git/spice/spice

cd spice

git checkout $SPICE_VERSION

./autogen.sh --enable-opengl

make

sudo make install

cd ..
echo "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}" >> ~/.bashrc

source ~/.bashrc

git clone git://git.freedesktop.org/git/spice/qemu cd qemu git checkout spice.v42 ./configure --enable-spice --enable-kvm --audio-drv-list=alsa,oss --enable-system make sudo make install cd ..

And launch it

#!/bin/sh /usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -spice port=5930,disable-ticketing -drive file=./machines/debian.img,if=virtio -vga qxl -device AC97 -usbdevice tablet -m 1024 -enable-kvm -net nic,model=virtio -net user

Testing Orca

Alejandro Leiva — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 19:09:26 +0000

How to test Orca

Prerequisites:

orca master: git clone git://git.gnome.org/orca orca
accerciser master: git clone git://git.gnome.org/accerciser (Impressive tool for AT)
gtk2-examples: (probably) sudo apt-get install gtk2.0-examples

Run!
cd ./test/harness (in orca root) ./runall.sh -a ../keystrokes/gtk-demo/ > ~/gtk-demo.out 2>&1

Compiling GTK on osx (with jhbuild)

Alejandro Leiva — Thu, 27 May 2010 18:25:15 +0000

deactivate macports!

if (10.6)
add to ~/.jhbuildrc-custom
setup_sdk(\”10.6\”, \”10.6\”, [\"i386\"])

and build it

$ jhbuild bootstrap $ jhbuild build gettext-fw $ jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-bootstrap $ jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-core

Note: You can do a main bootstrap with –ignore-system flag but the compiled gettext version won\’t work. You need to do a build gettext-fw (until someone merge this)

Would be nice to have 64bits support!

New term coined: Hybrid posting

Alejandro Leiva — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 19:59:03 +0000

Abstract

hybrid posting: use top posting to mark a leaf on the conversation thread, use bottom posting to receive a response.

Interleaved style: an extension of hybrid posting.

Some examples

Hybrid posting

From: god@heaven.org To: gloob@litio.org Subject: start thread


Will you have bought a new car before summer?

I was thinking in buy a toyoya \"hybrid\" prius.

case A: Use top posting to mark a leaf on the conversation thread

From: gloob@litio.org To: god@heaven.org Subject: RE: start thread


i don\'t think so.
> Will you have bought a new car before summer?

>I was thinking in buy a toyoya \"hybrid\" prius.

Result One email to close the thread with one response.

case B: Use bottom posting to receive a response.

From: gloob@litio.org To: god@heaven.org Subject: RE: start thread


> Will you have bought a new car before summer?
>I was thinking in buy a toyoya \"hybrid\" prius.
Toyota is a good brand of cars, I\'m very happy with it.

Did you check Lexus, too?

Result One email to continue the thread and inviting others to response it.

I really love autogenerated graphics

Creating video with codeswarm

Alejandro Leiva — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 10:22:10 +0000

A very fast recipe to do a video with codeswarm (Relative to codeswarm home)

#!/bin/sh


mkdir project_build
svn log -v https://urltoprojectsvn/svn/project > project_build/activity.log
python convert_logs/convert_logs.py -s project_build/activity.log -o project_build/activity.xml

ffmpeg -f image2 -r 24 -i ./project_build/frames/code_swarm-%05d.png -sameq ./project.mov -pass 2

First

Es la primera vez que me cuesta leer google en una imagen de google
