Hi, every buddy
I got a platform with crusoe 400MHz
and Ali chipset, 176M RAM. I want to run gnomemeeting on
this platform, and my OS is redhat 7.1. Well, I just
instsalled on a PII PC and then move the
harddisk with OS installed to the crusoe platfom. I've download gnomemeeting source code and
compile it myself on redhat 7.1. This software works excellent on my PII, however it is not so
stable on the crusoe platform. Some times the both local and
remote video will freezed while
another end at least can see himself alive, while voice
still go on. The other end may be both
Microsoft NetMeeting or another
Gnomemeeting. Such situation always happen the first
time I
start a browser such
as mozilla or netscape, but only the first time.I mean If I
restart
Gnomemeeting then restart the browser, the
Gnomemeeting session will go on even it will pause
for few second during mozilla start up. But if I visit some
web site, the video may freeze
when the browser begin show the webpage. I've changed camera
from ov511 to pwc, but same things
still happening. And the kernel is a 2.4.1 compiled by myself with some modification to
pwc
driver and with CPU indicated as crusoe. Later I noticed that I can specify CPU type during
compile pwlib and openh323. After that,it seems to
be better then before, however still not
very stable: now the video won't freeze when I browse those
web site which will cause freeze
before safely ,but the first time start the browser, the video
still will be freezed. And I've
followed some suggestion Sandras's suggestion given here last month to someone else to run
it
with --debug option, I noticed that when the video freezed, there will bo less information
for
TxChan. In fact only two type lefted: Statisical information and some information about
silence
compress, so far as I know the later shoule be some information about voice compress but have
nothing to do with video. It seems that
the loop dedicated to gather local video blocked. I
wonder
dose any one have similiar experience before and can give me some suggestion.
Thanks
Pan Deng
