New VM behaves odd?
by goran＠krampe.se 03 May '06

03 May '06

Hi fellas! I use IRCe under Linux in a 3.8 image and have noticed that with the new VM the UI "blocks" when doing operations like connecting or typing a line of text in the IRC channel etc. For example, I type in a line and press enter - it "hangs" for a second obviously trying to send the line or something, and when it succeeds I get the UI back. I can't say it behaved like this before. Same weird thing happens when I move the IRCe window I think, but I am guessing that is also related to communication - perhaps IRCe tries to poll for more data or something, I dunno. So my question is: Have anyone else noticed Squeak behaving differently with the UI having "blocks" like this with the newest VM? And of course - happen to know why? ;) I haven't had time to figure out a test case yet, just wanted to check my sanity first. regards, Göran

Hi List, in http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/transcriptions/EWD08xx/EWD831.html Dijkstra put a remark about a language called Mesa, developed at PARC. Wonder why the Mesa experience didn't carry over to Smalltalk. Greetings, Wolfgang -- Weniger, aber besser.

Problems while installing via SqueakMap and also direct file-in
by Nagy Attila 03 May '06

03 May '06

Dear list, I use Squeak 3.8 update #6665. I very frequently encounter errors while trying to install packages from SqueakMap. For example, say, I'd like to install LifeMorph. First, it complains that there's no published release for my version. No surprise, as there are no published versions at all. I say Yes, try any release. Now comes the complaint that there are no releases at all. Take the last unpublished release? Yes, take it. The third complaint says compatibility is not listed, so it may not work. Ok, proceed. And now it says: "Error occured during install: SMDefaultInstaller>>nonMultiSuffixes" Let's open a debugger. It says the SMDefaultInstaller doesn't understand #nonMultiSuffixes. What should I do? The other error I frequently encounter is that ByteString doesn't understand #fullName. I tried to install SqueakAmp by filing in its two .cs files, and that's what I got. Again, what should I do? Thanks for your help, Attis

SqueakMap Password Reset Hangs
by Todd Blanchard 03 May '06

03 May '06

I can't remember my squeakmap password. I've tried to use the password reset page - entering my email address and clicking submit causes the browser to hang waiting for a response indefinitely and the email never arrives. Can whomever has power over this service reset my password to something arbitrary and email it to me? Thanks, -Todd Blanchard
