====== Scratchpad ====== Note: The Firefox related stuff now got [[firefox|its own page]]. ===== Z-Buffer-Fighting and Linux ===== Try the following * Make sure Z-Buffer is explicitely enabled at the call to ''glutInitDisplayMode'' (eg: ''glutInitDisplayMode( GLUT_DOUBLE | GLUT_RGB | GLUT_DEPTH);'') * Invert normals * Set Z-Buffer depth to 24bit ===== The "Nupsi" ===== If you have the problem of owning a notebook which doesn't come with a hardware mixer and therefore offers no possibility to make sure the sound is indeed muted, the Nupsi((not to be confused with [[http://xkcd.com/243/|the nub]])) might be something for you. * Take a 3.5mm headphone plug, * saw off half of it, so that only a small, approx. 5-7mm high not-plug-part remains, * fill it with hot glue (and paint the glue afterwards if you want to), * and plug it into your headphone jack whenever you want to make sure that the sound is muted. Sounds stupid, but works. Patent pending :-P ===== Eclipse, JavaHL and Debian ===== For using [[http://www.eclipse.org/subversive/|the Subversive plugin]] with the JavaHL connector, add ''-Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/jni'' to your ''eclipse.ini''. ===== "Invalid JAR" errors when using EclipseME ===== Found the following fix:
When trying to install my MIDP application generated with EclipseME on the Nokia phone I kept getting “Invalid JAR” errors. According to a [[http://www.mail-archive.com/eclipseme-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg00633.html|post on eclipseme-users]], this is due to EclipseME not including a vital piece of information in the JAD file. To fix it, simply open the generated JAD file with a text editor and add the following: MIDlet-1: Classname,,packagename.Classname “Classname” should be the name of your MIDlet class, “packagename” should be the name of the package it’s in. After I added this line to the JAD it installed just fine. [[http://workshop.evolutionzone.com/2007/07/06/carbidej-bad-eclipseme-good]]
