Try tooltype WINDOW=NIL:

WINDOW=NETSURF works.

I can publish Release Candidate now.

NetSurf-m68k-3.1-RC1:

* fixed some reported bugs
* works 'out the box' now. No install script.
* auto check for gfx
* added support for WallGet download manager by marcik.
Use option download_manager to choose between: wallget, httpresume, wget.
Wget works with modern file host sites ie. Dropbox.
* simplify search of resource files
* handle Amiga keys

Download in The Zone!

Has anyone tried this yet?



Arti,

I'm currently working on a new (optimised) SDL port (based on v1.2.15) that includes both RTG and AGA support using a single library (you'll just need to pass in the driver type when you initialize it).

This will make it easier for you to build AGA and RTG versions using a single code base.

I'll let you know if I can get the sucker to work!

[arti]

Cool! Looks like NetSurf will get nice speedup soon:
-NoTTF
-disk cache
-optimized SDL

Grab it in The Zone! or here

The main problem IMHO is that the AGA version isn`t really useable. At least the version from Apr 21 2014 I tried.

artur, testing quickly on aros68k under uae, bsdsocket enabled, i can reach the net with aros own owb.

325 [7] Mount Open AmiTCP:devs/Inet-Mountlist Read Fail..

which results apparently in that netsurf cant resolve hosts, is there any setting to get around that? why is there this amitcp dependance, is it hardcoded?

also seems you still link somewhere against ixemul, or maybe rather against ixnet perhaps only for connecting stuff, since the browser itself starts even without the library present. bernd ixemul has annoying habit to complain on 040 under aros about missing math emulation, perhaps because it cant detect the 040 lib or whatever.. would be better to complelely get rid of linking against it.

@novacoder:
ideally the sdl library should check the availability of rtg and only if it fails fall back to aga, none with rtg card wants to run the ports on slow low color display. should be possible to get the right display with bestmodeid.

can you give me your lib, btw? i might ressurect some port attempts from long ago, and adapt them to aga.

[NovaCoder]

SDL AGA is on AmiNet but you should wait till my next release.

[attila06]

Cannot try this one, still asking for AmiTCP.

[arti]

In Assigns file comment out line with amitcp

[attila06]

it doesn't work.

@arti

I tested it on Amikit, and it hangs when I try to resize its window.

BTW, thank you for your work!

[arti]

@gulliver

Strange, works here on fresh AmiKit 1.7.0.

[gulliver]

I am using the previous version 1.6.7, the one which is free.

Maybe it is some old component.

---------------------------------------
Update:

I tryed on a fresh & unmodified Amikit 1.6.0 installation, and I still get the same issues

Not much information here. Try from command line with -v parameter and post output.

[attila06]

Don't know if it can help:

unable to init SDL
unable to initialise nsfb surface

[gulliver]

On a clean 3.9 setup, I can resize its window, but when I increase its window size, the full window doesnt get refreshed.

[arti]

NetSurf in present form doesn't let you resize window. There small hack for this atm. When you set size you prefer and press F7 or right click on reload button NetSurf will restart with new size.

[gulliver]

Ok then, I can sure wait until that feature gets implemented applying the hack you mentioned.

Thanks.

Did this happen also on RC1, Development, 3.0 ?
