And, despite me having posted about it numerous times in the past, the Mypal fork is based on the release (stable) upstream branches of UXP+Pale Moon, while NM28 is based on the master (unstable) branches of UXP+Pale Moon (i.e. newer code; don't just let appVersion numbers fool you; arithmetic may dictate 28.13.1 > 28.10.2a1, but it's not the case code-wise); if that "bug" (probably connected to specific hardware setups and/or use of certain extensions) doesn't bite you yet in Mypal 28.13.1, it might when you later upgrade to Mypal 28.14.0 or later... IOW, switching to Mypal 28.13.1 from recent NM28 builds might be akin to @sal here downgrading his St52 copy to older buildID=20200904161558 What is unfortunate though is that our maintainer can't replicate it (yet?), so things for now look grim...

I open basilisk 52, I go to this website of peertube instances: https://instances.joinpeertube.org/instances then I choose any instance and launch a video. I watch the video for a few seconds and close the instance tab of the video to go back to the instance list tab to choose another instance. By moving the mouse cursor over the list, after a few seconds the bug occurs every time. basilisk 52 is portable-loading. with "ublock origin" as the only add-on...on xp2 I tried this on my basilisk52 (2020.09.25 ia32) and nothing happened - no error. I moved the cursor over all visible cells of the table. Then i tried several more times... Just when i thought my build may not be affected - it happened, lol. Crash log here.
XPerceniol Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) There were no changes from my side (no hardware changes, no software changes, and no configuration changes) after buildID=20200904161558 - it wasn't until the two builds following that BuildID the application error bug began for me?! And I've been surfing and posting.. here, there, and everywhere this evening with not a single error whatsoever with buildID=20200904161558. Ever since I started using roytam1's builds, I've updated every week with no issues up until now with Basilisk/Serpent, so whilst I'd rather not go backwards, I'll give every new build a try again and see what happens before downgrading again.

rereser Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 @VistaLover. thanks for the download manager fix. as to testing Mypal vs New Moon. it is not my intention to switch browsers. just was curious as to how Mypal works with the "instances " page. am happy to see that this is a more friendly board compared to the upstream one. and a big thanks to roytam1 for maintaining New Moon and other weekly builds. did not mean any disrespect. regards. 1

Could you explain what this means? Is this a v28-only build preference or does this effect recent v27 builds also (ie, the week or two that Roytam had computer issues)? My default is v27 dated 9-12-20. Edited September 29, 2020 by ArcticFoxie

Mentioned files, as pretty much expected, continue to reside inside Serpent 52.9.0's main appdir (as well as in upstream official Basilisk 52.9.2020.09.11 ) Now, as a test, I went along and deleted those 3 "errant" files and latest New Moon 28.10.2a1 32-bit (buildID=20200918232718) launches and runs fine here (Vista SP2 32-bit, build 6.0..6003) without them... that's the accessibility libraries, official builds and my old builds used to have --disable-accessibility specified. I lost the build config and then it turns on that on compilation. ... and On 9/20/2020 at 4:56 AM, roytam1 said: On 9/20/2020 at 3:09 AM, VistaLover said: How do you intend on pursuing this? Will you be going back to a --disable-accessibility build config flag for your future NM28 builds, continue as things stand now or is this simply now out of your control? will go if I remember to do this. As to: 3 hours ago, ArcticFoxie said: or does this effect recent v27 builds also (ie, the week or two that Roytam had computer issues)? I'm not currently using NM27, but do you now (i.e. in latest builds) see extraneous accessibility files inside its main directory? FWIW, one can always consult built-in pages like "about:buildconfig" to read build-time configuration flags... 2
NotHereToPlayGames Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Ah, thanks. I would like to learn how to compile but every instruction guide I've tried was OUTDATED and no longer works. A how-to-compile thread would be nice
rereser Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 (edited) NM28XP Win32. temp solution for the app crash on https://instances.joinpeertube.org/instances layout.css.resizeobserver.enabled - set to false. RESET the pref when roytam1 releases a new version. (hopefully with the download manager fix) should work for other forks where the pref is present also but not tested. this however could "break" some other sites. Edited September 30, 2020 by rereser
