Discussion / Re: Wiki email confirmation broken?

« on: March 05, 2011, 14:50 »

I did some research. Apparently, these colours are set in MediaWiki's CSS files. The default CSS fragment for categories is

Code: [Select]

#catlinks {
    border: 1px solid #ccc;
    background-color: #f9f9f9;
    padding: 5px;
    margin-top: 1em;
    clear: both;
}
To deuglify, you have to change those colours (presumably background-color: black and border: 1px solid red, or some darker shade of red). To do that, you have to place

Code: [Select]

#catlinks {
    border: 1px solid red; /* or whatever */
    background-color: black;
    padding: 5px;
    margin-top: 1em;
    clear: both;
}
into the page http://doom.chaosforge.org/wiki/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.css

Problem is, only admins can do that. Maybe an admin is reading this thread?

Nothing in the spam folder. Email provider is Global Message Exchange (gmx.net). I tried with a different email account now, and guess what, it worked like a charm. Thank you for this hint!

In my edit, I also added a category just for kicks. (http://doom.chaosforge.org/wiki/index.php?title=Pistol) Unfortunately, the category bar at the bottom looks a little ugly (it appears to keep the default MediaWiki colours). Can these colours be changed to match the general DoomRL style?

Discussion / Wiki email confirmation broken?

Hi, on http://doom.chaosforge.org/wiki/index.php?title=Pistol I wanted to fill in the missing weapon_source parameter and registered an account (User:Moodguy). In order to be able to edit, I apparently need to confirm my email. However, no confirmation code arrived. I re-requested a confirmation code under "my preferences", but still no email arrived. The email address I entered is correct, and I also succeeded in sending a test email to myself. Is email confirmation broken, or have I missed something?

Best,

Bug Reports / [0.9.9.2] Sound error message destroys screen content (with workaround)

« on: February 25, 2011, 03:16 »

Version number of DoomRL: 0.9.9.2
Version type of DoomRL: linux-i386
Platform you were running on: GNU/Linux

The following error message is printed across the screen (wherever the cursor happens to be) every few seconds:

ALSA lib pcm.c:7223:(snd_pcm_recover) underrun occured

This destroys the screen content over time and thus makes the game unusable. I have found the following workaround:

• Run gnome-terminal --geometry=80x25
• In the new terminal window, run ./doomrl 2>>stderr.log

This causes the error message to be appended to the file stderr.log instead of being printed on the terminal.

Note that despite this annoying error message, the sounds do work fine.
