devkitPro

Hey All,

I am trying to get some Wii/Gamecube development underway and have run into a Bus Error when compiling some of the examples.

Here is my setup:
OS X 10.4.11
devkitPPC_r17-osx
libogc-1.7.1a
gamecube-examples-20090509
wii-examples-20090509

Basically I followed the setup here:
http://wiki.devkitpro.org/index.php/Get ... /devkitPPC


I can successfully compile many of the examples.
The problem occurs when making some of the stuff in a /graphics/ directory. The error I get is to the effect of:
>textures.scf
>make[1]: *** [textures.tpl] Bus error

As far as I can tell it only happens when the main source file has includes like
#include "textures_tpl.h"
#include "textures.h"
or
#include "NeHe_tpl.h"
#include "NeHe.h"
But the files don't exist as far as I can tell...


Any insight to this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

OK, after some digging I have traced the problem to the gxtexconv executable.

Here is a backtrace of the error:

I guess I'll post this in the bugs section?

Here is the output of uname for my system:
Darwin Kernel Version 8.11.1

And I'm running
OS X 10.4.11
Macbook w/ Intel Core 2 Duo

Give this a shot & see how it goes.

I'll get these universal binaries to work right yet :p
