OK, thanks. I should have clarified. What I've been doing for months (or years) now is that I've set Tools -> Options -> Mail Format -> Plain Text. As a result, whenever I send a message, if I go up to the Format menu, I see that Plain Text is already set (because of what I did in Tools -> Options). So, the per-message menu has Plain Text checked; all the mails I send and receive in this tool appear as plain text; and thirdly, when I send messages to other accounts (e.g. my academic or home account) they appear that as nothing more than plain text. So it baffles me how it is that Wolfgang could be receiving HTML from me. For example, I sent a message to my academic account with nothing more than the single word "test" in the message body. Here is the message as received at my academic account: >From XXXX.XXXX(a)XXXXX.XXX Tue May 25 12:43:58 2004 Return-Path: <XXXX.XXXX(a)XXXXX.XXX> Received: from antispam1.avnet.com (antispam1-outb.avnet.com [12.9.139.194]) by mathpost.la.asu.edu (8.12.9/8.12.9) with ESMTP id i4PJht0Z008071 for <kerl(a)mathpost.asu.edu>; Tue, 25 May 2004 12:43:58 -0700 Received: from unknown (HELO uschd00mx03ims.AVNET.COM) (172.16.125.103) by antispam1.avnet.com with ESMTP; 25 May 2004 12:36:14 -0700 Received: from uschd00mx11usr.AVNET.COM ([172.16.125.111]) by uschd00mx03ims.AVNET.COM with Microsoft SMTPSVC(6.0.3790.0); Tue, 25 May 2004 12:36:04 -0700 Content-class: urn:content-classes:message MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft Exchange V6.5.6944.0 Subject: test Date: Tue, 25 May 2004 12:36:12 -0700 Message-ID: <E8E581FE5C58614B85A22AF2A495C64909E390(a)uschd00mx11usr.AVNET.COM> X-MS-Has-Attach: X-MS-TNEF-Correlator: Thread-Topic: test Thread-Index: AcRCjz41q6aJ00MHT0uRNBuG6oD86g== From: "Kerl, John" <XXXX.XXXX(a)XXXXX.XXX> To: <YYYY(a)YY.YY.YYY> X-OriginalArrivalTime: 25 May 2004 19:36:04.0464 (UTC) FILETIME=[848A7700:01C4428F] Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-MIME-Autoconverted: from quoted-printable to 8bit by mathpost.la.asu.edu id i4PJht0Z008071 Status: RO test Note that nothing more than the word "test" has been received.

Herm, could you use ppc-linux-objcopy with --adjust-vma, then point GDB at that modified executable? -----Original Message----- From: u-boot-users-admin(a)lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:u-boot-users-admin@lists.sourceforge.net]On Behalf Of Stuart Yoder Sent: Tuesday, May 25, 2004 11:28 AM To: u-boot-users(a)lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [U-Boot-Users] debugging relocated code What is typically done to debug relocated code with gdb? For example, u-boot is linked at 0xFFF0000, but then relocates itself to 0x0FF03000. The debug symbols all reference the linked location.

Anyone know of a way in gdb to relocate all the symbols? Thanks, Stuart Yoder

[U-Boot-Users] AMD dbau1550
by Leif Lindholm 25 May '04

25 May '04

Hi I've been working on getting u-boot 1.1.1 up and running on <subject>, in little endian mode (which someone asked for a few days ago I believe). I've been able to get as far as "Starting kernel ..." after downloading the kernel u-boot image through tftp. I know this tecnically means u-boot is finished, however the same kernel (in srec format) boots fine from the original yamon loader on the board. When I halt the processor through jtag (bdi2000), the PC is always at 0xbfc00424 (somewhere in ROM exception land?). The loaded image has been configured using tools/mkimage -C gzip -a 0x80100000 -e 0x80246040 -A mips -O linux -T kernel -d vmlinux.gz vmlinux.u-boot 0x80246040 is the location of "kernel_entry". Does anyone have any hints about how I could work my way past this problem? regards / Leif

[U-Boot-Users] Interface between u-boot and linux image
by wyu hotmail 25 May '04

25 May '04

Hi, Is there a standard of the interface between u-boot and linux image? Since the u-boot should passing some information to kernel at the begining of linux image start up, but for different CPU type, the bdinfo structures are very different in u-boot, how does these structures co-work with linux image made from different version of embedded linux such as eldk, hardhat or others? thanks. yuwp

Hi, I'm trying to understand file u-boot.lds.But I'm puzzled about the syntax of pseudoinstruction used in this file. Where can I get help documents about these strange instructions? Thanks. yuwp

> And BTW the RTC on MPC8xx draws much to much current! It's broken. See Errata for these proceossors. We use a diode-decoupled 1 Farad GoldCap on KAPWR, and with the XPC860T-D4 Mask the clock keeps running for several days, much more than we anticipated.

[U-Boot-Users] question of changing the default settingof the ocotea board
by yan weichuan 25 May '04

25 May '04

Dear all, I use the ocotea board, and I want to change the default setting #define CONFIG_IPADDR 10.1.2.3 and #define CONFIG_SERVERIP 10.1.2.2 to my own ip addresses in the file of include/configs/ocotea.h, then compile the source. When I unpacked a new u-boot source package to do this, the change take effective, then I change it again in the dirty source, strange things happened, the changes didn't take effective, and they keep in default setting of 10.1.2.3 and 10.1.2.2. How do this happened? _________________________________________________________________ 与联机的朋友进行交流，请使用 MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com/cn
