No, it's an Win32 binary in the Palm Desktop install directory (usually C: \program files\palm\) It's the "Hotsync Manager". Of course you'll need the HotSync programs on the PalmOS side too. > > No, it doesn't work with USB. > > OK that, it is clear. Well, I didn't try, it might work but I don't think so.

Could give me the right command to use for > "pi-nredir" to install > /mnt/cdrom/essential_software/acrobatreader_for_palmos/adobereader-palmos.e >xe as example ? A small step-for-step howto: *Install Palm Desktop. *install the Adobe Reader for PalmOS converter. This means running adobereader-palmos.exe with wine *Launch hotsync.exe from the directory where Palm.exe is installed. You'll get the hotsync icon in your Desktop's systray *Double-click it with the right mouse button. You'll always have to double click the hotsync icon to open the menu, I don't know why *Select the "Setup..." menu item or whatever it is called. I have the German version and it's labeled "Einrichten..." *Open the network tab, press "TCP/IP Settings". Check if the ip is correct and enter a correct subnet mask, e.g. 255.255.255.0 *Press OK to close the windows *terminate any Linux app which might access the Palm. Connect the Palm to your PC with the USB cable *Launch the Hotsync program on your PalmOS device *Open the menu and select "LANSync-Setup" or what it's called. The german version labels it "LANSync-Einst..." *Select LANSync and tab OK to close the dialog *Start the Hotsync over the usb cable. *Run pi-nredir -p /dev/pilot on your Computer 3 or 4 secounds later. The Hotsync dialog should pop up and the Device should perform a hotsync with the Win32 Palm Desktop. (replace /dev/pilot with the hotsync port visor.c provides to you. Usually /dev/ttyUSBX or /dev/usb/tts/X) To upload a pdf launch the pdf converter from it's install directory, and select the pdf file to upload. Then perform a hotsync. I hope this is correct, I wrote it down from memory. Cheers, Stefan

Janitorial : check all refcounts in Wine?
by Paul Vriens Jan. 12, 2005

Jan. 12, 2005

Hi, for the described Janitorial task 'Use Interlocked functions in AddRef and Release methods' I'm currently looking at This->ref. If I however do a wider search I find a bit more, for example: kernel/atom.c:256: entryPtr->refCount++; msi/handle.c:188: ret = info->refcount--; rpcrt4/cproxy.c:219: This->RefCount++; setupapi/virtcopy.c:106: vhstrlist[n]->refcount++; and so on. I only looked at names containing 'ref'. But there are more around where 'ref' is not in the name: ole32/compobj.c: COM_CurrentInfo()->inits++; I know it's a hell of a job, but should these also be 'fixed'/changed? Of course it's a bit hard to tell which are thread unsafe. Cheers, Paul.

[AVIFIL32] question about ACMStream_fn[AddRef|Release] in acmstream.c
by Paul Vriens Jan. 12, 2005

Jan. 12, 2005

Hi, during my code cleanup I came to acmstream.c and found the following: static ULONG WINAPI ACMStream_fnAddRef(IAVIStream *iface) { IAVIStreamImpl *This = (IAVIStreamImpl *)iface; TRACE("(%p) -> %ld\n", iface, This->ref + 1); /* also add reference to the nested stream */ if (This->pStream != NULL) IAVIStream_AddRef(This->pStream); return ++(This->ref); } the AddRef can be cleaned up. the Release however looks buggy: static ULONG WINAPI ACMStream_fnRelease(IAVIStream* iface) { IAVIStreamImpl *This = (IAVIStreamImpl *)iface; TRACE("(%p) -> %ld\n", iface, This->ref - 1); if (This->ref == 0) { /* destruct */ This means I have to do a Release twice before it actually goes into the if statement, because the decrementing takes place at the end of the Release function. Can anybody confirm my finding. Cheers, Paul.

I need to upload the Debian packages into the Sourceforge HTTP space in order for our APT server to be up to date. It'd be nice if I could do it myself. My sourceforge name is yokozar If someone could add me that would be great. Thanks, Scott Ritchie

import stubs
by Dan Notestein Jan. 11, 2005

Jan. 11, 2005

Instead of directly using native methods to export functions from wine shared libs, Wine and WineLib emulate the windows methodology for exporting/importing these functions. Is this just to enable the use of native Windows dlls in Wine, or is it needed for other reasons? I ask because we're currently using WineLib to port to Solaris and HPUX, where native Windows dlls wouldn't work anyways, and it might be nice if we can remove this overhead on these platforms (and save us some porting headaches). However, before we started this work, we want to be sure there are no "gotchas" associated with removing it.

Which > means that we will not come to the part: All the time ? Looking at COM_CreateApartment it seems COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED works but indeed COINIT_MULTITHREADED always return NULL. I think the code at the beginning of COM_CreateApartment is wrong. TRACE("thread 0x%lx is entering the multithreaded apartment\n", GetCurrentThreadId()); COM_CurrentInfo()->apt = &MTA; return apt; I think we should return COM_CurrentInfo()->apt rather than apt.

Palm OS Desktop & Wine
by FyD Jan. 11, 2005

Jan. 11, 2005

Dear All, I have a Tungsten E PDA and use K-pilot/J-pilot to backup/restore/install .pdb/.prc files with my linux box. No problem for that. => However, I would like to install a .pdf viewer on my PDA and the files provided for this installation are not .pdb/.prc files but a Windows executable file (AdobeReader305-PalmOS.exe). To install this file, I need to install the whole Palm Desktop CD under windows. => Consequently, I thought to use Wine for that: I compiled Wine_20041201 on my linux box (RedHat 9.0), configured it with 'winesetuptk' and run 'wine /mnt/cdrom/autorun.exe' to install the whole Palm Desktop CD for window. The installation seems to start ok & I get the following error message: [...] fixme:ole:ITypeInfo_fnRelease destroy child objects fixme:ole:ITypeInfo_fnRelease destroy child objects fixme:powermgnt:SetThreadExecutionState (0x80000000): stub, harmless. Please use the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG\Software\Fonts\LogPixels to set the screen resolution and remove the "Resolution" entry in the config file fixme:thread:NtSetInformationThread Set ThreadImpersonationToken handle to (nil) fixme:thread:NtSetInformationThread Set ThreadImpersonationToken handle to 0x4c Installation of D:\palm desktop\Palm Desktop.msi (SETUPEXEDIR=D:\palm desktop) failed. err:dc:DCE_FreeWindowDCE [0x20024] GetDC() without ReleaseDC()! I tried to find info on the web about 'Palm OS Desktop installation & Wine' without success... Is it possible to do install the 'Palm OS Desktop' CD with Wine and/or any idea for my problem ? Thanks a lot, regards, Francois

Re: [AppDB] mysql_query -> appdb_query in /include

Hey Jonathan, On Tue, 11 Jan 2005 00:59:44 +0100, Jonathan Ernst <Jonathan(a)ernstfamily.ch> wrote: > This patch replaces nearly all mysql_query with appdb_query in /include. We should use query_userdb() in include/user.php. We're allowing a seperate database for it. This patch was already applied tough: http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-cvs/2005/01/0257.html But also your previous mysql_query patch is using query_appdb where it should use query_userdb(). Or will we just start dropping that second database? It seems like the live server did not seperate them. Jeremy can you confirm? Paul
