Sorry about the delay in responding. The steps you are taking look
correct. Things to check:


1) You indicate that you are getting a partial display, i.e. the simple
gui buttons show up. This means that your problem might not be the same
as Tomas', because he was not getting any display. Are you using VMware
like he is? If so, then it may be the same problem he had: Newer
versions of VMware need an updated Neutrino VMware graphics driver. I
have attached one to this email you can try.

2) Make sure that only one devi-hid is running. When you boot Neutrino
if you exit photon the devi-hid used by Photon may still be running.

3) I notice that you are getting the "Could not set cursor" message.
This indicates that the gf_cursor_set() call is failing. I'm not sure
why it would be failing, but you can try passing the -C option to owb
which makes it not attempt to draw the mouse pointer.

4) When you run "owb" are all the shared libraries being found and
opened correctly? To get this information, run owb with the DL_DEBUG
environment variable set, for example: 
# DL_DEBUG=1 ./owb http://www.google.com 

If this does not solve your problem, please send me the output of "pidin
arg" and a copy of your display.conf file.

Regards,
Max

Hi,

I am also facing the same issue. is this issue resolved. ? I am trying
out this on QNX 6.4.1 self hosted.

Steps I have followed.
I downloaded the latest version of OWB webkit from SVN sources.
With the steps given in README , I could build the webkit.

Later I followed the pre-inquisitive instructions given in the README

I ran the display driver with display.conf file.
I ran devi-hid -P mouse kbd



After running, I am getting black screen with partial display.

Where am I doing wrong ?

your inputs are appreciated.

Thanks
Satish P.

Hello Max Feil,
 
I got your e-mail ID in QNX forum , I have already posted this issue on
QNX "web browser"  discussion forum.
Just mailing you direclty if you could help me resolve this at the
earliest.
 
The issue:
On launching OWB browser with some valid url, the system is gettng hung
& I am seeing a partial web browser (with some buttons at the bottom)
& a black screen displaying some text which goes like this
 
#./owb http://www.google.com
Window w 1024, height 768
Could not set cursor
 
Steps I followed:
 
1> I compiled OWB from latest SVN sources on QNX Neutrino 6.4.1(Self
hosted)
2> ran graphics driver with display.conf which has the vendor & device
ID for display matching with the output of "pci".
3> Then I ran "devi-hid -P mouse kbd"
 
Am I missing any steps ?
 
Your inputs are appriciated.
 
Thanks & Regards
Sateesh Pattar
