Via Vt6102 Net card

Hi all! This is the hivesys.inf PCNet section. I copied fetnd5a.sys to pcnet.sys. I can query network properties w/o a crash! All I get is IPHLPAPI.dll need more work and GetAdapterInfo did not return the expected data. Bus 0, device 18, function 0, Ven 1106/Dev 3065/class 0200. Start->Settings->Settings Menu->Network Properties Select VT6102->Properties, get the VIA PCNet Status Menu, select Properties, get the VIA PCNet Pro~ Menu, select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), select Properties, get the Error menu. Wow! Did not crash! Need to check if I'm on the right track here!

Hi all, I tested some small files to and from root and subdirectories on the ext2 (D:) partition w/o any errors or lockups.

Hi all Jh sent me a better look: http://reactos.com/newsite/reactos_index.html I think it looks better! I've also reworded our slogan at the top to read what Steven suggested. Magnus: I'm sorry but your critism is not constructive! Which links do you want on the frontpage that aren't already there? You cannot link to everything on the frontpage either! Cheers Jason

MSI already does everything you want to do. Add support for loading MSI packages by developing your application on Windows and then it should work in ReactOS as we share msi.dll and msiexec with wine. Vendors can already use Wix to package thier applications. For bonus points make it tie in nicely with NSIS. Thanks Steven __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Most people just write a Install Shield wizard and have the software packaged in a msi but it can do self-repair and modification and all sorts of cool stuff. Most third partys now ship apps as MSI as its what Microsoft supports or they use NullSoft Install System so making a easy to use interface to both of them will win the most support. Its like a mini-sql database so you can even use XML to mess with it in your Package Manager. If I understand correctly the Microsoft tool for creating MSI packages "WiX", uses a xml file for input. The only problem is that WiX is CPL and not GPL so we cannot ship it with ReactOS unless we make it a seperate download. Thanks Steven __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Idea for NTFS replacement
by Mike Swanson 31 Mar '05

31 Mar '05

NTFS is an important feature of Windows NT, it is one of the most advanced file systems devised. It contains many security devices that makes Windows NT secure. It is much more reliable than FAT. Perhaps instead of waiting for someone to make complete NTFS support in ReactOS (not that it shouldn't be done), we may make a filesystem of our own that is designed with NTFS features in mind (http://linux-ntfs.sf.net/ntfs/), but since we make it we have complete support for it. I was thinking of the name MUSCLE, a pun of FAT. I'm not exactly sure if the letter mean anything yet, but they could be in the future ;) -- Mike

Package Manager

Hallo, As you might remember firk85 and me have started coding a package manager for ReactOS. More information and a download linkcan be found on the wiki on http://wiki.reactos.com/PackageManager . Since it is now so far that it is at least a bit useful, I'd like to ask what you think of adding it to the svn-tree ? Maarten Bosma

Xen port of ReactOS
by Ge van Geldorp 31 Mar '05

31 Mar '05

Hello, After doing some research, I've decided to go ahead and start a port of ReactOS to Xen. For those in the Xen community not familiar with ReactOS: it's an open-source (GPL) re-implementation of the Microsoft Windows NT-based line of operating systems, aiming to provide binary compatibility for both applications and drivers (http://www.reactos.com). For those in the ReactOS community not familiar with Xen: it's an open-source (GPL) virtual machine monitor that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation (http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/index.html). Initially I'll focus on getting ReactOS running as a guest OS. This should benefit ReactOS primarily, since this will make it possible to develop large parts of ReactOS (everything except for hardware drivers and some low-level memory management) inside Xen. It will also give ReactOS access to some hardware not natively supported yet (by using the Linux driver). The benefit for Xen at this stage would be the development of ReactOS device drivers for interfacing with Xen, which could also be used for a Windows XP port. On the longer term, I see no reason why ReactOS couldn't function as a driver domain. As driver compatibility improves in ReactOS, this could provide Xen guests access to hardware for which the manufacturer provides only Windows drivers (due to Xens nature, not every driver could be used this way, but I bet a large percentage of the drivers depend on the kernel to do the really low-level stuff). All in all, it seems a win-win proposition for both projects. And even more importantly, I think it's a cool project :-) I've made a branch in ReactOS svn, svn://svn.reactos.com/branches/xen, for this port. Of course, the goal is to merge the changes into trunk eventually. I expect the port to take at least a few months, my initial feeling is that it should be done by the end of the year (there's lots of other stuff in ReactOS I want to work on too). The wiki page at http://wiki.reactos.com/Xen_port will be used to keep track of progress. The game plan is just start working from the boot code, until a problem is hit. Fix that problem and continue until the next problem. Any support and help from the Xen and ReactOS communities are of course greatly appreciated. Gé van Geldorp.

confusing smss routine (ea)
by Gunnar Dalsnes 31 Mar '05

31 Mar '05

I was doing some changes to RtlCreateUserProcess and saw the strage rotuine SmCreateUserProcess: http://svn.reactos.com/viewcvs/trunk/reactos/subsys/smss/smapiexec.c?rev=14… It has several bugs/problems/confusions: 1) RtlDestroyProcessParameters is not called if RtlCreateUserProcess failed. 2) If WaitForIt is TRUE and you specify a timeout, the caller in not notified if SmCreateUserProcess returned due to timeout. The process will stay running forever. 3) If TerminateIt is TRUE, handles are closed. This is wrong/confusing. Closing the handles does not terminate the process (wrong name?). 4) If you dont pass a UserProcessInfo and TerminateIt is FALSE, it will leak thread/process handles. 5) If you pass UserProcessInfo and TerminateIt is TRUE, the thread/process handles in UserProcessInfo will be invalid. etc.etc. VERY confusing and bug prone: SmCreateUserProcess is used once in the end of this file and it pass FALSE for TerminateIt and pass no UserProcessInfo thus the thread/process handles will never be closed. I should have fixed it myself if i just understod how this routine is _supposed_ to work:-D Regards Gunnar

Network connection config dialog prototype
by Andrew "Silver Blade" Greenwood 31 Mar '05

Following some discussion with Art Yerkes via email, I've been toying around with a resource editor and shifted XP's network connection configuration dialog around: www.furrybeans.co.uk/stuff/netdlg.jpg Note that this will not be the final dialog, nor will that exact one be used - I'm using a resource editor just so I don't have to painstakingly recreate each control just to see what it looks like. It's just convenient for laying out a prototype. Ignore the image at the top left - that was there already. Compare with XP or 2000's dialog and let me know what improvements you can think of. -Andrew
