Pulseaudio depends on libatomic_ops. However, libatomic_ops don't have support for mips. I've created a patch for mips, though only work on 32bit userland. Get it here . Pulseaudio now compiled and installed on my loongson box. Can't use it to play though. The following is some detailed info, if you are interested in. My setup is to use alsa's pulse plugin. I tried aplay, for example: $ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Right.wav aplay: pulsecore/mutex-posix.c:75: pa_mutex_lock: Assertion `_r == 0' failed. Aborted Before this assertion failed, aplay is stuck on a futex system call. connect(7, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/var/run/pulse/native"}, 110) = 0 send(6, "W", 1, MSG_NOSIGNAL) = -1 ENOTSOCK (Socket operation on non-socket) write(6, "W", 1) = 1 gettimeofday({1187375795, 973686}, NULL) = 0 write(6, "W", 1) = 1 futex(0x45dd1c, FUTEX_WAIT, 1, NULL

Thanks to neysx! Take a look: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/zh_cn/handbook/ I have just submitted /doc/zh_cn/{index,metadoc}.xml https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=189247 Two problems have been discovered since I wrote the stardict 3.0.0's ebuild. One is that stardict 3.0.0 needs gconf-2.m4 file in the m4 dir in order to run eautoreconf successfully. Because stardict can disable gnome support, and as a result user may not have gconf installed. The other problem is related to newest speech-tools. This one is stardict 3.0.0's dependency. you can find details here: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=188820

layman -a gentoo-china to get it, or view it online: http://gentoo-china-overlay.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/app-dicts/stardict/ I wrote two patches which could make it compile when --disable-gnome-support. Stardict 3.0.0 supports text-to-speech engine festival. It requires the latest version of festival and speech-tools. So I wrote ebuilds for them. They are also in gentoo-china overlay now. I haven't become an ebuild dev yet, so I can just put them there. I will submit to bugs.g.o later. I have reported relevant issues to stardict.sf.net. You can find it here.

Synced with English version. Take a look: http://www.gentoo-cn.org Progress: http://www.gentoo-cn.org/doc/zh_cn/progress.xml BTW, this website is powered by my loongson machine, ;)

My little patch to mldonkey's Makefile donesn't satisfy mldonkey developer. I didn't come up with a better solution. So I resorted to modify mldonkey's ebuild. Maybe not so elegant, but it works, at least for me. I added the following snippet to src_install(): EXE="mlnet mld_hash get_range copysources make_torrent subconv" if [ -f mlnet.byte ]; then for i in $EXE; do mv $i.byte $i done fi dobin $EXE || die "dobin failed" The ebuild could found here: http://www.gentoo-cn.org/loongson-overlay/net-p2p/mldonkey/ This overlay is independent from the one on dev.lemote.com, although the latter was actually registered by me. Because I can't access dev.lemote.com's svn repository, probably due to network problem. So I just maintain this overlay locally, using git. To get it, run: git-clone http://www.gentoo-cn.org/loongson-overlay/.git BTW, I have just registered a domain name: gentoo-cn.org. I will make it theportal site...

In short, ocaml doesn't have native code compiler for mips linux, but it can compile byte code which is also an ELF executable. The only difference is that bytecode runs slower than native code. But there is a little problem with mldoney's Makefile. I will try to make a patch to solve the problem. PS: maybe i misunderstood something. I found that mlnet.byte can't run on its own, it needs bytecode file. PPS: I found the mlnet.byte i have installed into /usr/bin is not the right one. PPPS: it is the right one, but gentoo stripped it, haha, now it works, finally! http://caml.inria.fr/pub/ml-archives/caml-list/2002/08/492887df149fb58b1c21ffa89e6fee66.en.html The following is a conversation happened on #mldonkey @ freenode (r0bertz) what is the difference between mlnet and mlnet.byte * lb001_ has quit (Remote closed the connection) * lb001_ (i=irc@gateway/tor/x-f2c1251672831851) has joined #mldonkey (jave) r0bertz: mlnet.byte is byte compiled (jave) you will normaly use plain ml...
