Stable working version of compilers, libraries and assemblers. - binutils - 2.10/2.11/2.12 (?) - gcc 2.95.x (ok) ( anyone w/ 3.x series experience ? ) - nasm 0.9x (0.98 ok) - glibc -2.1.x / 2.2.x (2.2.5 ok ? ) and: - mixed libmpeg stuff versions.... - mixed MAD lib, LAME, etc ... - mixed AVI stuff - mixed qtime stuff Having P55 MMX K6 K7 compatible optimizations.... In such context what would be "best" ? Currently I am trying to upgrade my messy mixed system to binutils 2.12/glibc 2.2.5... trying to keep old stuff running AFAP ... BTW, I loved this black magic art ;-) : > mkfifo /tmp/audio.raw /tmp/video.raw /tmp/audio.mpg /tmp/video.mpg > divxdec -W /tmp/audio.raw -Y /tmp/video.raw movie.divx.avi & \ > mp2enc -o /tmp/audio.mpg [other options] < /tmp/audio.raw & \ > mpeg2enc -o /tmp/video.mpg [other options] < /tmp/video.raw & \ > mplex -o movie.mpg /tmp/video.mpg /tmp/audio.mpg > rm -f /tmp/audio.raw /tmp/video.raw /tmp/audio.mpg /tmp/video.mpg > -- HOM: http://www.momentus.com.br/users/hook/ GPG: http://www.momentus.com.br/users/hook/GPG-PauloCastro.asc
