Carsten, I noticed that you had already been yourself part of that 2014 discussion I referred to.

Plus, 1 self-correction: Flash-plugin was (and even after the attempted "fix" still is) broken for another reason, not because stuff got removed but because new CPU instructions got added in November 2012. I have a fix which makes it work again (without loading ortder nonsense like first visiting http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ and reloading it many times). For many sites like watching Webcams of public places and factories in China Flash is still mandatory, suach as for this site: http://jia.360.cn/pc/view.html But before I return to the plugin wrapper and the kernel fix to revive native Flash support, first Vbox5. BTW, this night I finally got USB really working. The reason was very silly, all the usb diff as uploaded yesterday was useless: This single compile line _must_ be compiled with gcc4.5, not Illumos-patched-4.4.4 (worse) and before all not with 4.9 or newer, this only matters for this single compile line of the entire Vbox src tree, the rest _can_ be compiled with 4.9: in build/amd64/src/VBox/HostDrivers/VBoxUSB/solaris /usr/gcc/4.5/bin/gcc -c -O2 -std=c99 -m64 -mcmodel=kernel -I/PHOTOSVIDEOS1000GB/COMPILE/00__ILLUMOS/code20160608wed/04__solaris11/code/ALP__KMS_MATE__checkout20160911sun/oi-userland/components/virtualbox5_qt4/build/amd64/src/VBox/HostDrivers/VBoxUSB/solaris -I/PHOTOSVIDEOS1000GB/COMPILE/00__ILLUMOS/code20160608wed/04__solaris11/code/ALP__KMS_MATE__checkout20160911sun/oi-userland/components/virtualbox5_qt4/build/amd64/src/VBox/HostDrivers/VBoxUSB/solaris/include -I/usr/platform/i86pc/include -I/usr/include -I/PHOTOSVIDEOS1000GB/COMPILE/00__ILLUMOS/code20160608wed/04__solaris11/code/ALP__KMS_MATE__checkout20160911sun/oi-userland/components/virtualbox5_qt4/build/amd64/out/solaris.amd64/release/obj/vboxusb/dtrace -I/PHOTOSVIDEOS1000GB/COMPILE/00__ILLUMOS/code20160608wed/04__solaris11/code/ALP__KMS_MATE__checkout20160911sun/oi-userland/components/virtualbox5_qt4/build/amd64/include -I/PHOTOSVIDEOS1000GB/COMPILE/00__ILLUMOS/code20160608wed/04__solaris11/code/ALP__KMS_MATE__checkout20160911sun/oi-userland/components/virtualbox5_qt4/build/amd64/out/solaris.amd64/release -DVBOX -DVBOX_OSE -DVBOX_WITH_64_BITS_GUESTS -DVBOX_WITH_REM -DVBOX_WITH_RAW_MODE -DRT_OS_SOLARIS -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DRT_ARCH_AMD64 -D__AMD64__ -DVBOX_WITH_DEBUGGER -DVBOX_WITH_HARDENING -DRTPATH_APP_PRIVATE=\"/opt/VirtualBox\" -DRTPATH_APP_PRIVATE_ARCH=\"/opt/VirtualBox/amd64\" -DRTPATH_APP_PRIVATE_ARCH_TOP=\"/opt/VirtualBox\" -DRTPATH_SHARED_LIBS=\"/opt/VirtualBox/amd64\" -DRTPATH_APP_DOCS=\"/opt/VirtualBox\" -DIN_RING0 -DIN_RT_R0 -DHC_ARCH_BITS=64 -DGC_ARCH_BITS=64 -D_MACHDEP -D_KERNEL -D_STRICT_STDC -DIN_RT_R0 -DIN_SUP_R0 -DVBOX_SVN_REV=110634 -Wp,-MD,/PHOTOSVIDEOS1000GB/COMPILE/00__ILLUMOS/code20160608wed/04__solaris11/code/ALP__KMS_MATE__checkout20160911sun/oi-userland/components/virtualbox5_qt4/build/amd64/out/solaris.amd64/release/obj/vboxusb/VBoxUSB-solaris.o.dep -Wp,-MT,/PHOTOSVIDEOS1000GB/COMPILE/00__ILLUMOS/code20160608wed/04__solaris11/code/ALP__KMS_MATE__checkout20160911sun/oi-userland/components/virtualbox5_qt4/build/amd64/out/solaris.amd64/release/obj/vboxusb/VBoxUSB-solaris.o -Wp,-MP -o /PHOTOSVIDEOS1000GB/COMPILE/00__ILLUMOS/code20160608wed/04__solaris11/code/ALP__KMS_MATE__checkout20160911sun/oi-userland/components/virtualbox5_qt4/build/amd64/out/solaris.amd64/release/obj/vboxusb/VBoxUSB-solaris.o /PHOTOSVIDEOS1000GB/COMPILE/00__ILLUMOS/code20160608wed/04__solaris11/code/ALP__KMS_MATE__checkout20160911sun/oi-userland/components/virtualbox5_qt4/build/amd64/src/VBox/HostDrivers/VBoxUSB/solaris/VBoxUSB-solaris.c Nothing else works, neither changing optimization to -O0 nor removing or changing any individual or permutation of the gcc flags. It really has to be gcc4.5 (or 4.4.x but without specific Illumos diffs). I noticed that the official Oracle provided VirtualBox bins also were created with *this*: GCC: (GNU) 4.5.2 ld: Software Generation Utilities - Solaris Link Editors: 5.11-1.2458 Quicte odd, perhaps a stack corruption. IPS didn't even let me install 4.5, I had to mount over an old archive from my userland work in 2014 that was originally planned for OpenSXCE2014.11. I really dislike this behaviour of IPS, that it simply thinks it knows better than myself what I should install or not. Until IPS finally tells me such heroic output takes several minutes (5 to 10, depending on available memory). Ok, but pkgutil'ified SVR4 on the other hand has other but also significat flaws . So unfortunately we don't have anything better than IPS which still offers full backwards compatibility to SVR4 pkgadd while offering all the benefits of something like IPS/apt-get/yum rpm etc. Regards, %martin _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
