Via Vt6102 Net card
by James Tabor 14 Jun '06

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!

DIB code generator
by Ge van Geldorp 08 Jul '05

08 Jul '05

One of the things which has bothered me a bit is the code duplication we have in our DIB engine (subsys/win32k/dib). Most of the BitBlt routines in there are very similar. With the recent interest in optimizations a bunch of new (almost identical) routines were added. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that adding those optimizations was a bad idea, I'm just pointing out that we have a lot of code duplication. There are 256 possible ROP codes, we support 1bpp, 4bpp, 8bpp, 16bpp, 24bpp and 32bpp, so in theory there could be 1536 routines with basically the same structure. I've been playing around with the idea to write a code generator which would generate the source code for those routines. That would cut down on the duplicated source code and associated maintenance problems (you only need to change the code generator) while still allowing optimized code for each individual ROP code. Just to give you an idea what such a code generator would look like, I've attached my first attempt. Please note that it doesn't really try to optimize the generated code yet, it's just to give an impression. The code generated (16bpp only atm) is rather large, you can get it from ftp://ftp.geldorp.nl/pub/ReactOS/dib16gen.c if you like (or compile the code generator ("gcc -o gendib gendib.c") and run it). A possible problem is that the generated code is quite large. When using the generated 16bpp code, size of win32k.sys increases by about 350kb. Extrapolating this for all bpps, it would mean that win32k.sys would triple in size. So, I'm wondering what you guys are thinking. Should we basically trade memory for speed? Problem is that I can't quantify the speed increase at the moment. Gé van Geldorp.

New ReactOS Homepage: ideas, new features, etc.
by Klemens Friedl 02 Jul '05

02 Jul '05

I wrote all my ideas about the new ReactOS page (that came to my mind) together: http://reactosde.re.funpic.de/mediadetail.php?sec=Articles&cat=ideas&mdnr=1… What is your opinion about that? There are two (or more) possible solutions for the static main pages: * wiki system that generate the static pages (HTML/XHTML) (maybe language support problem ?) * selfwritten simple CMS system (very flexible, easy to use, only a few php-scripts so fewer bugs, better integration (design, layout), language support, generate HTML/XHTML, ...) (* CMS system like the current one) What system do you prefer? (wiki, CMS, ...) Compatibility and Package Manager section: * wiki based (like in the current mediawiki only a long list) * php based dynamic list (with filter features and tree structur; mysql database): example: (first alpha page) http://frik85.fr.funpic.de/packmgr/?page=tree&sec=view&sec2=2 * winehq's application database (or something else; redesign it?) What system do you prefer? (wiki, dynamic list (tree structur), ...) I will have time in july/august/sept. to implement the Compatibility-, Package Manager section and the simple CMS system that can generate the static pages, if it is okay for you. But I will wait until I get a "start signal". If someone else want do it alone or want help me, it will be no problem (for me; then I will have more time to code for ReactOS). I wrote this because the current ReactOS page is awful (design and CMS system) and we need a better and more beautiful page to gain more visitors, get a bigger ReactOS community (and more devs). I hope the UI-Team will finalize the layout of the homepage in the next two months. Thanks for reading this, and maybe you find time to write your opinion about that.

Booting problem
by Mike Lerwill 30 Jun '05

30 Jun '05

I have recently acquired some second-hand hardware that will be dedicated to my testing and development of reactos. It will, however, not boot either 0.2.6 release or current SVN and I would appreciate some assistance on how to debug this problem. The output from the two versions is as follows. 0.2.6 Used memory 131072Kb (mm/mminit.c:375) Kernel Stack Limits. InitTop = 0x800bb000, Init = 0x800b8000 (mm/virtual.c:214) FIXME: MEMORY_AREA_SYSTEM case incomplete (or possibly wrong) for NtQueryVirtualMemory() (ke/bug.c:56) Found Bugcheck Resource Data!

Is it some kind of ego boost the hostilix team is a after? Is it because they want people to think they have the skill the ROS devs have? Is it because they want people to think they wrote the code? IMO, if you use code from another project, you leave the code as it is, i.e. no claiming copyright, no adding headers to claim ownership, or to trick people into thinking it's your code, or any other type of header just for the sake of adding it. The only time you should be adding your own mark is when you have altered the code in some way. Your mark should then be added, in addition to the current list of programmers. To be honest, I find it all rather sad and quite pathetic to need to stoop to this level. Just take the damn headers off and all this hostility will end.

They aren't violating the GPL by misrepresentation (per se); they're (likely) violating the underlying copyright law by making a false claim to ownership.

Grab the latest ReactOS SVN, export it, re-import it into your SVN, then DON'T MESS WITH THE COPYRIGHT NOTICES. I mean, you've obviously had to do a lot of work to add your name and replace the contents of the other files, and look at how much good it's done you? In reality, the "right" process is really, really easy. It's not necessary to plaster your name all over the place, especially if you haven't done anything in a given file. Whenever you make a change, just add your copyright to the start of the file. It's that easy. It means you do 0 work up front, *and* you don't have angry devs breathing down your neck about blatently ripping them off. "Branding" all of the files, to be frank, is a *very* stupid waste of your time, and has (clearly) only served to piss everyone off. Now, that's not to say people still won't be disgruntled about it, but they'll grumble much more quietly -- and it's WAY easier for you to cover your ass by saying "all of the original copyright notices in the source are intact" (because if you only add notices, it doesn't remove or alter the existing notices). Release everything under GPL, and bam... you shouldn't run into too much trouble. Cheers, -- Travis ____________________________________________________ Yahoo! Sports Rekindle the Rivalries.

my first time - userenv lang file
by Sebastian Gasiorek 28 Jun '05

28 Jun '05

Hi,. I'm polish fan of ReactOS. I would like to help you in making ReactOS better. I have some developer skills with C++ on Windows (x86, CE) platform but i don't have enough time to help you in this area (maybe i'm to sluggish :-( ). At this time i would like to help you with translating ReactOS to Polish language. In attachement there is a polish translation of userenv. Sorry for my poor english. Sebastian Gasiorek
