Dave,

  I see quick hangs or closes in Dooble QT6 with github too. Just thought it was because of the age of our WebEngine, but maybe not?

Paul,

 Yes, this one seems to work as well as the previous working version - with the same limitations (mostly occasional random system hangs). Any thought on trying to build the 6.2.12 version of webengine?

Hey Paul,

  I get the same result as you, but I also have my RPM environment totally current. I was able to get it to work by just copying QT6WebEn.dll from your last package (20250505) to the new one and then it all worked.

Regards,

 Thanks Paul - every QT6 app I've tried works just fine with this build! Haven't tried any examples yet though...

 Hey Neil,

In desperation I reset to VGA, then installed Panorama, and now I can get full resolution in Virtualbox. I always run full screen (no windows), so this will be good for now. No idea what went wrong before...

Virtualization / New higher-res monitor with ArcaOS on VirtualBox
« on: May 02, 2025, 10:18:07 pm »
 Got a newer wider screen monitor with 2560x1080 resolution to replace an old standard 1920x1080 res monitor. Booted directly to ArcaOS using Panorama it works fine. Running ArcaOS under VirtualBox inside Windows 11 it seems to only be able to get 1920x1080 resolution (black bars on left and right sides of full screen).

 Has anyone gotten higher than 1920x1080 in VirtualBox under Windows?

 I followed the Arca Noae instructions to change resolution using the VBoxManage app (I tried 2560x1080x16 and 2560x1080x24 and 2560x1080x32) but when I do that, the only choice I get in the 'Screen' object is 1600x1200x16777216. So I set back to 1920x1080x32. Kinda implies it can't be done. Is there something else I need to do to get the desired resolution? Did increase video memory to 128MB, but it made no difference.

Applications / Re: SSL update: Firefox XUL.DLL can no longer load

Lars,

  I also noticed on my system that Firefox itself comes with a ssl3.dll, so maybe you could also reinstall that too (not sure why it needs it's own version).

Hi Lars,

  ssl3.dll is part of the 'nss' package. Try re-installing it (yum reinstall nss). Firefox works OK here after updating openssl.

Thanks Paul - this one works with PMUniMix. When I first ran it, all settings were on zero, so had to reset them, but once done they stuck and sound still works.

 Thanks Paul - yep, this works on VBox using the hda driver. If I start PMUniMix though, I lose sound altogether. Next time I start PMUniMix, everything is set to zero. So as long as I don't start PMUniMix, sound works OK.

Hey Paul,

  I tried this last build in a VBox 7.1 machine and can confirm your results: ac97 'works' and hda hangs while booting.

 I have never used ac97 for sound in a VBox because it always plays sounds too fast - voices sound like chipmunks. Wonder if anyone else has noticed that. HDA has always been fine.

 Thanks - didn't know about the environment variable. Added it and now don't need the file in root for dictionaries.

 I wonder why does Dooble write the settings file at all if it already exists at startup? it clearly reads it from %HOME%, but maybe some part of the code does not get the message it already exists and goes ahead and writes it?

Regards,

Thanks again Dave! This also works well here - still get the dooble_settings.db in the root. As an experiment, I made a bunch of changes to my settings, closed dooble, then deleted the dooble_settings.db in the root. Opened dooble and all the settings changes I made were still there.  So it seems that dooble_settings.db file in the root is totally vestigial and is an extra copy.

Another thing I had forgotten about - it still need the dictionary file to be in the root too...
