Hi All,

Wicknix has released the BrassMonkey 33.5.1 Internet Suite. It contains a web browser, email client, HTML editor, IRC client, News client and RSS client.

I compiled it for Linux PPC today.

Preparation of the Linux PPC64 version:

Download the UXP source here: UXP master.tar.gz

Grab BrassMonkey source here Source code

Extract the BrassMonkey source, then extract UXP source. It'll extract to a folder called "uxp". Rename it to "platform" and move it in to the BrassMonkey source tree.

Compiling the BrassMonkey for Linux PPC64:

It needs GCC 7.1 or newer.

Upgrading of GCC to version 8.3.1:

Code: Select all

sudo dnf update gcc-c++

(This upgrades the packages gcc-c++, gcc, and cpp)

If you want to use "rpm -U" then you need to download the rpm packages of gcc-c++, gcc, and cpp first.

.mozconfig

Code: Select all

export CC="gcc -flax-vector-conversions -O3 -falign-loops=16 -falign-functions=16 -falign-labels=16 -falign-jumps=16 -maltivec -mabi=altivec"
export CXX="g++ -flax-vector-conversions -fpermissive -O3 -falign-loops=16 -falign-functions=16 -falign-labels=16 -falign-jumps=16 -maltivec -mabi=altivec"

Remove the following line from the file "platform/security/nss/lib/freebl/freebl.gyp":

Code: Select all

      'target_name': 'gcm-aes-ppc_c_lib',
      'type': 'static_library',
      'sources': [
        'gcm-ppc.c',
-        'sha512-p8.s',
      ],
      'dependencies': [

./mach build

./mach run

Please note: Copy the icudt63l.dat to obj-powerpc64-linux-gnu/dist/bin before "./mach package" and then extract the BrassMonkey bz2 package and copy the icudt63b.dat to the brassmonkey folder.
