- Subject: Latest version of MiNTOS, or whatever, and my uptime patches.
- Date: Mon, 11 Apr 1994 12:49:02 +0100 (BST)
- Mime-Version: 1.0
-
- Firstly, I've placed the latest version of the MiNTOS (or whatever people
- want to call it) package available via anonymous ftp from our ftp host:-
-
- earth.ox.ac.uk:/pub/mintos/mintosbn.tgz
-
- This is a gzipped tar file of a directory tree containing all the programs
- in the correct placed relative to the root directory. Move your /etc/..
- whatever files out the way else they'll get overwritten.
-
- earth.ox.ac.uk:/pub/mintos/mintossc.tgz
-
- This is a gzipped tar file of the source tree, including a top directory
- called mintos.
-
- The versions of the programs not produced by me, eg. talk, are not the
- latest.
-
- What's new:-
-
- login & su are now the 4.4BSD versions.
- Lots of minor fixes.
-
- It would be nice if the syslog routines and possibly some of the other
- "standard" routines I've implemented were incorporated into the MiNT-libs.
- The socket library would be nice in there too.. :-)
-
- Anyway.. onto the next item.
-
- Below is the latest version of my uptime/load average code. This is
- effectively a hybrid of the first version and the second, ie it uses the 5ms
- interrupt to run a timing loop but runs the main code via the Vertical Blank
- Interrupt. (The 5ms code merely counts down to zero from 200 and resets, the
- VBI routine monitors the value, if the value increases then it runs the
- uptime/load code.)
-
- This means that (a) minimal extra overhead is added to the 5ms interrupt
- code, and (b) the timing is rock solid, well as good as the 200Hz clock
- anyway.
