Rockbox Development > Starting Development and Compiling

Why is "make" taking so long?

mschneider:
Whenever i try to make after i have downloaded the source, half or so will be compiled before i get this message:

"Warning: the file [insert path/file here] has a modification time of (example) 3e+4s in the future."

The 3e will count down to one and then finish compiling but this takes all day. Why is it taking so long?

This notice is a cygwin issue. And cygwin in know to be dog slow, especially in direct comparison to a linux box.

mschneider:
but i'm using vmware...

I've gathered from those posts that i should sync the two clocks and wait a few minutes after copying the files. Is that right?

Llorean:
I've found the best solution is to have VMWare properly shut down, rather than simply suspending, when you close it. It takes longer for VMWare to launch, but assures that the clocks are in sync (or did for me).
