#3 Keyboard stops working

Steven Sostrom — Tue, 07 Apr 2026 05:30:02 -0000

Actually, I tried r1068-trunk version 5.03 and r1095 version 06.00pre.
Unfortunately, today, I am not able to reproduce this problem today in any version to see if it happens in r1046-trunk version 5.03.
Today, with r1095 version 06.00pre, after doing some web browsing on the same computer, the linrad interface became slow or sluggish. This is not like the time when the keyboard stopped working.

Keyboard stops working

I am running a Raspberry Pi 5 running DietPi debian trixie.
There is an intermittent problem where if you switch to another window, linrad stops responding to the keyboard, except for ESC, arrow keys and enter. I am not sure if you have to type something in the other window. After a relatively long period of time, it sometimes reverts to normal.
I have observed this in r1046-trunk version 5.03 and r1095 version 06.00pre.

#2 error: "MAX_SVGA_PALETTE" redefined

Right, I guess Leif will agree with this change
because of his comment in palette.c.
I am not sure if Leif reads postings from this group.
It is probably a good idea to contact him directly.
Thanks for your helpful contribution.

Hi sm5bsz

I propose the following change to be able to let linrad compile again on Arch Linux after the latest change in r999:

Index: screendef.h
===================================================================
--- screendef.h (revision 999)
+++ screendef.h (working copy)
@@ -95,7 +95,7 @@



-#define MAX_SVGA_PALETTE 59
+#define MAX_SVGA_PALETTE 60


 // Note that these definitions give the order by which data is

The following error is produced in r999 without this change:

palette.c:29: error: "MAX_SVGA_PALETTE" redefined [-Werror]
   29 | #define MAX_SVGA_PALETTE 60
      | 
In file included from palette.c:28:

Thank you and 73

#1 The .deb package is only source code

Hello,
in the latest Linrad_snapshot_x86_64.deb there is a binary executable.
The file clinrad is included and that is all we supply with the .deb file.

The .deb package is only source code

As the title states the 04.15 .deb packege installs the source code to /usr/local/linrad
Is it supposed to contain binaries or is this the way it is distributed? The latest version I can find in a .tbz is the previous 04.14a on the site.
