Phoronix: ADriConf Looks To Move Under The Mesa Umbrella As Linux Driver Configuration Utility

Jean Hertel who has spent the past year developing ADriConf as as the Advanced DRI Configurator is now looking for this project to officially live within Mesa...

Such simple applications should be written with Python to reduce amount of code and files and make the usage and the maintaining easy.

Then Do it, you heroic super developer.

Actually I sort of hate Python.

LMAO, good stuff!

I buy Linux compatible hardware and software so I do not need to modify the drirc file.

If you don't care about this project, then why are you posting/trolling in this thread and derailing it with programming language holy wars?

It's a one-wo/man project. If the dev is more comfortable with C(++), then that's what s/he should use. End of holy war.

Weasel, is tildearrow your twin brother??? lol

Bringing this up from time to time has proven to be effective:

For you some python code then:

#!/usr/bin/python

import gi
gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0')
from gi.repository import Gtk
import subprocess

class MyWindow(Gtk.Window):

def __init__(self):
Gtk.Window.__init__(self, title="PS3 Controller")
self.box = Gtk.Box(spacing=16)
self.add(self.box)
a = subprocess.check_output(['cat', '/sys/class/power_supply/sony_controller_battery_04:37:7f:85:63:25/capacity'])
label = Gtk.Label("PS3 Controller Power Level = " + a)
self.box.pack_start(label, True, True, 0)

win = MyWindow()
win.connect("delete-event", Gtk.main_quit)
win.show_all()
Gtk.main()

How is that going to go on a python 2 and python 3 systems. What about if python 4 appears. Python and other interpreted do have their own set of problems.

Yes C and C++ is horrible more code but it does produce a solid binary that is not explode because someone updates python or some other interpreter.

Really i would love to see a ncurses version ADriConf so if you have screwed the settings up that X11/Wayland cannot start due to what you have set that you can ssh in and fix it with something kind of graphical.

Wait for the HTML and CSS version, you will love it!
