i must say sorry everybody because this is my fault.
Now i can built it. Thank you very much.

Why don't you post what you did wrong, and how you corrected it? That way newcomers can learn from your mistakes.

Assuming anyone searches these forums before posting questions...

OK, think I've got it fixed now. Two simple changes to disassemble.c Like I said, I'm gonna do as full a regression test as I can to make sure nothing's broken before releasing -- this includes building EE C source with inline COP2 VU instructions, micro-mode VU asm, and (just to be safe) some IOP s...

The only C code in the tarball is ggp.c -- in it, you're dumping the GIF packet to a file, but never sending it to VU1. The vu code looks OK, assuming you send the GIF data to VU1 address 0. I didn't disassemble your GIF packet to see it's correct or not.

Ah, huh, yeah, of course: you can build vu0 code for EE, since one of its behavior is to act as the ee's cop2. So, you need to have some of the dvp instruction support for EE. I think.... Huh.... doesn't sound right to me. I'll look at it whenever I found some spare minutes to do so :P Mumble. Oh y...

I am thinking that the cause of the error is the following lines in bfd/config.bfd (in the binutils project): case "${targ}" in mips64*-scei*-elf*) targ_archs="${targ_archs} bfd_dvp_arch" ;; esac It looks like whenever building for the ...

Hmm, looks like my patch may have broken EE disassembly via ee-objdump. It seems that ARCH_dvp is defined for the EE binutils configuration, and so any attempt to use the disassembler in ee-objdump treats the object file as a DVP object (VU, etc.), and won't show the R5900 opcodes as expected. In th...

O_WRONLY - open the file for writing only O_TRUNC - truncate the file (set to zero length) if it already exists O_CREAT - create the file if it doesn't exist 'man 2 open' or look in K&R for more info, these flags are from standard C Don't know why dropping O_WRONLY would work, seems to me neithe...

Unfortunately, the actual error message was not in the output you posted, as far as I can tell. If you scroll further up, there should be some sort of error indicating why newlib couldn't be installed. The only clue I see is 'Error 141' which is 0x8d -- signal 0x0d is SIGPIPE. This may mean that som...

I also thought about trying out Xcode for the cross-compiler toolchain but it was only a thought since I have always been a command-line kinda guy. :) Yeah, me too, for the most part. I generally use Emacs (which does allow you to compile within the editor, and jump to compilation errors, which is ...

I just got a Mac mini. I love it. I have successfully moved all my ps2dev crap from my ancient Linux machine (600MHz P3 w/ 128M RAM) to this little jewel, and everything's working wonderfully, including Oopo's toolchain, pksh, etc. A real unix system with an awesome UI... and for under US$800 (start...

If you could give a little more information about why it's not building, you'll be more likely to get (useful) information. Many (most?) people here are using cygwin, with great success (although I'm not one of them). Make sure you have included all of the components of cygwin that are needed -- gcc...

Since the SPU (or is it SPU2 -- I don't even know the processor's name) is not officially documented anywhere for non-licensed developers, I have a bunch of questions that have arisen from digging through what code is available. Some are pretty obvious, but I'd just like some confirmation... LIBSD i...

An interrupt is typically generated by an external event (most CPUs have an INTR or similar pin). On the PC, which is more general purpose, you have the various interrupt request levels which any hardware device can claim (e.g., IRQ3). The EE has stuff a little more hard-wired, as far as I can tell,...

Is anyone here planning on attending GDC (San Francisco, 7-8 March)? I'm not, but would be curious to hear any reports.

Maybe next year ps2dev.org can get a booth ;-)

According to the geography I was taught in school, Turkey, like Russia (it was the Soviet Union back when I was in school), is in both Europe and Asia. The little bit of Turkey that's west of the Bosporus -- the channel connecting the Black Sea with the Mediterranian -- is considered Europe. Of cour...

It currently only deals with APA/PFS. I actually got about 75% of the way with an ext2fs driver for ps2sdk. It's read-only, and there are many many missing features. I don't know what state it's in right now, this was a couple months ago and it's been relegated to my ever-growing pile of semi-finis...

A good resource for anyone interested in the industry (in North America, anyway) would be Game Developer Magazine They have an annual salary review in the mag, and they have a more comprehensive one from their site (don't think it's free though).

We use something similiar to what you describe - a thread woken up by a vblank interrupt handler.. You can use AddIntcHandler() to add a vblank handler. IIRC there are some ps2dev examples that show how to do this. Cool, thanks. Also, I see this in kernel.h: void SetVInterruptHandler(s32 ha...

I finally had to buy a 2nd one a few months ago -- my son kept wanting to play games on it!! Kids... He got the new one, and I got the old one with the cranky CD drive tray (from my adventures with the "knife trick" in the pre-exploit days). I found my old Amiga 1000 monitor in the attic (...

A lot of the code I've seen has a vblank routine that looks something like this: while(!((*CSR) & GS_VSINT)) /* do nothing */ ; This is obviously going to eat up all of the CPU cycles that it can while it's waiting for the GS to set the VSync flag....

Yes, the PL2301 is special -- it's essentially a "null modem" or "crossover cable," although there's a little more to it than that (i.e., you can't just swap pairs like you can with serial or ethernet cables). Here's what I can remember about the way USB works: The USB standard h...

Here's what I discovered after grepping the ps2sdk source: This error is reported in iop/usb/mouse/src/ps2mouse.c in the ps2mouse_config_set() routine. This is passed as the 'doneCB' callback function to UsbSetDeviceConfiguration(), which is invoked from ps2mouse_connect(). According to the usbd.h h...
