I have a Clipper 5.3 app linker using Blinker designed for DOS PCs. I use the Blinker SWPRUNCMD() to swap to DOS and other programs. Needing to run this program in a Win 7 Pro 64 bit environment, I tried DOSBox 0.74. The only problem I have found so far is that when the SWPRUNCMD() is executed, the message 'Swap Failed' displays. Currently, I do not have the ability to recompile (although I may be able to re-link) so cannot try the native Clipper RUN command. Could anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance.
Using RUN instead of SWPRUNCMD() is going to be problematic, as RUN does not swap out memory before running the other binary. If the other binary has large memory requirements, RUN won't be much help.
Wikipedia does mention other dos emulators but, oddly, doesn't mention BOCHS
see SET CLIPPER information, particularly //SWAPPATH option.
Also, you can run your app with:
app //INFO > log.txt
to get more info in log.txt

im trying to make v4l2loopback work on my desktop PC (no hardware camera) with mint 19.3, kernel 5.4.0-42-generic x86_64.
I followed the official instructions and compiled from git the v4l2loopback module and everything seem to run correctly, as no error prompted while running the instructions, but when i do ll /dev/v* there's no /dev/videoN entry.
I also tried with the flags exclusive_caps=1 and devices=2 but to no avail.
Any idea what i might be missing or doing wrong?
you need to load the module (e.g. using modprobe) before you can use it.

so I have a problem. I accidentally deleted Eclipse folder and I wanted to install Eclipse again. But when I run installation it freezes the moment I run it, and I have to exit it...please help me
It would be informative to observe and mention any system error during installation attempt. By the way, I hope you are installing the right version for your operating system and more so, you have the recommended system requirement like RAM size, processor speed. I suggest:
Restart your system.
Use a system tool like Advanced System Care (free) and scan your system.
Well, I don't know what happened but I tried to install it 2 times, it freezed and didn't work. When I tried third time it worked. :D So yeah. Magic.
I had the same issue. Everytime I tried to install Eclipse, the installer froze at some point. Turned out it was a problem with the firewall. I tried the installation over a hotspot from my phone and it worked.
Might not be the problem for you, but I thought I leave this here, as I was trying for quite a while and almost gave up.
I'm running Gentoo right now, I'm using QEMU with KVM support to run a Windows VM, I need to because they're forcing us to use a proprietary CAD software at university (sadly enough). They gave us a license for a year, however when I activate it, it clearly says the license can't be used in a virtual environment. This leads me to the conclusion that somehow the system recognizes it is being emulated and I know there's a way to avoid this, but I actually have no idea what to do. I've read someone had the same problem and apparently solved it, however his solution doesn't seem to work for me. I'll leave you the URL of the question on Stack. https://serverfault.com/questions/727347/solidworks-activation-license-mode-is-not-supported-in-this-virtual-environment
This command:
qemu-system-x86_
64 -enable-kvm -hda windows.qcow2 -cpu host,kvm=off -smbios type=0,vendor=LENOVO,version=FBKTB4AUS,date=07/01/2015,release=1.180 -smbios type=1,manufacturer=LENOVO,product=30AH001GPB,version=ThinkStation P300,serial=S4M88119,uuid=cecf333d-6603-e511-97d5-6c0b843f98ba,sku=LENOVO_MT_30AH,family=P300 -m 8G
gives the output:
qemu-system-x86_64: -smbios type=1,manufacturer=LENOVO,product=30AH001GPB,version=ThinkStation: drive with bus=0, unit=0 (index=0) exists
I have no idea what to do, I also checked with ruby that the command I pasted from the post I've linked is actually ASCII, it is correct apparently.
I really need this to work, doesn't even work with a cracked license.
Thank you.
I'm using this amazing IPython notebook. I'm very interested into parallel computing right now and would like to use MPI with IPython (and MPI4py). But I can't start a cluster with
ipcluster start -n 4
on Windows7. I just get back "failed to create process". If I use the notebook and start a cluster in the "Clusters" register it's all working fine. But with cmd (even with admin rights) I just get this message. Same with all attempts of using MPI (MPICH2). All path vars are set. Maybe this problem has no connection to Python at all...
I can't say anything about IPython's parallel features, but if you're having problems with MPI in Windows in general, I would offer these suggestions. I've had quite a few issues in the past in trying to get MPI working in Windows. The most convenient method for me in the past has been to use an OpenMPI Windows binary http://www.open-mpi.org/software/ompi/v1.6/. These are now only available in previous releases. And even then, you might have to try more than one before you find one that works. I don't know why, but the latest didn't work on my machine. The release before that one did, however. After this, you have to call mpicc and mpiexec from the Microsoft Visual Studio Command Prompt or it won't work (without a lot of other stuff).
After you have verified that MPI is working, you can try installing mpi4py separately and see if that works. In my experience, sometimes this has worked fine and sometimes I've had to wrestle with configurations. You might just try your luck with an unofficial, prepackaged binary (for example, http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/).
Hope this helps!
Is there a reliable assembler for PIC micro-controllers (preferably from C) under Ubuntu? I am very familiar with PICs and getting pretty handy with Linux. I used to use an assembler (HyTech or something like that) on my windows box and download using ICProg. I'm not worried about the downloading part, but I can't seem to find an assembler. Any ideas?
discovered SDCC, which has a supply of include files for various PIC chips. Seems to work fairly well.
I have attempted to use SDCC in the past but found it lacking and buggy. Instead I have been using the Windows tools through the Wine emulator in Linux. I can run mplab and its assembler as well as the sourceboost compiler through the emulator. It works well enough and can be used from the command line and Makefiles.
