06 Sep '05

In the wiki page related to Known problems for R..2.7 -->> http://www.reactos.com/wiki/index.php?title=Known_Problems&curid=786&diff=0… , it is mentionned that "The install CD wont install reactos in some computers. LiveCD might boot in the same computers without problems" I cannot Boot using Boocd based on svn 17600 and created using the recommended "Built Environment" as indicated in the Wiki -->> http://blight.reactos.at/reactos-be/ReactOS%20Build%20Environment%200.1-3.4… The problem is reproductible on my 2 computers in real hardware , as per debug messages below. => Is it the same problem ?

Poll Results

Hi, I've compiled the results from the poll that I posted on the forum (some of you may know about it, some may not, that's fine, the presentation is quite clear about it) and published it as a slide presentation in four formats: Open Document Format: (For OO 2.0): http://www.relsoft.net/ReactOSResults.odp Adobe Acrobat Format: http://www.relsoft.net/ReactOSResults.pdf Macromedia Flash Format: http://www.relsoft.net/ReactOSResults.swf Microsoft Powerpoint Format: http://www.relsoft.net/ReactOSResults.ppt I hope I've been diverse enough with the formats ;) Best regards, Alex Ionescu

RE: [ros-svn] [ion] 17650: - Fix kernel32 and ntoskrnl build issues.
by Ge van Geldorp 05 Sep '05

05 Sep '05

> From: ion(a)svn.reactos.com > > - Fix kernel32 and ntoskrnl build issues. > - Define public version of DEVOBJ_EXTENSION in DDK. Ok, I have to wonder, did you bother to do ANY testing on your DEVOBJ_EXTENSION/EXTENDED_DEVOBJ_EXTENSION changes at all? Like, uhm, just trying to boot? 'cause it seems very unlikely to me that you were able to successfully boot. IoCreateDevice allocates only enough room for DEVOBJ_EXTENSION, but the allocated pointer is cast to PEXTENDED_DEVOBJ_EXTENSION (a much larger struct) all over the place, so we're reading/writing outside allocated memory in a zillion places.

It does only accept 3 of 8 types to setting the computer name. The setup uses ComputerNameNetBIOS, which isn't implemented. - Hartmut

State of the Repository September 2nd 2005
by WaxDragon 04 Sep '05

04 Sep '05

First, some stats: In August there were: * 676 Commits * 49 bugs opened * 139 bugs touched * 44 bugs closed Looking over the logs, here are some of the big and/or highly visible changes: *sedwards bought in some winetests (in regtests/winetests) This resulted in some immediate fixes *navaraf replaced the pesum tool with pefixup *sedwards brought dosfsck in late July, and enabled writing in August. Still needs testing, but seems to work. *brandonturner implemented windows style tab completion, replacing the bash style we had before. I believe this can be toggled. Also, cmd has really been getting attention from brandonturner and greatlord, may little bugs have been fixed. Thanks guys! *ion removed the third-party driver info from the hives and placed them in the wiki. I felt this was a good move, since it will motivate people to fix/implement driver installation. The interim solution was going to be creating .reg files to import or just re-add the info to your local hives. This had the side affect of breaking our vmware video driver installer. After some bugfixes, vmwinst now loads the driver, but ReactOS seems unable to set the resolution. *navaraf fixed the i8042prt detection, partially fixing the AllocConsole bug. This was merged to 0.2.7 and we shipped it as a known bug. We have received just a few reports of the AllocConsole bug on IRC, so it seems to work for most. *navaraf fixed the translation of extended keys, fixing my bug hilighting text with Shift+Arrow keys. Merged to 0.2.7, thanks Filip! *ion twiddled the priority code, fixing some winetests * ea returned to work on subsystem code * gdalsnes fixed ftol, progressing Abiword 2.0.3 * ion corrected the LPC Message Structures * amunger fixed the freeldr.ini Timeout ;0) * hbirr fixed several bugs that were blocking selfhosting (ros-on-ros compilation) I am able to compile ros on ros with the patch from the selfhosting bug. Thanks Hartmut! * We found that release builds of msi.dll allow the VMWare Tools installer to run, several bugs were fixes in relation to this. Thanks everyone! *fireball got USB keyboards working on the XBOX, along with various USB fixes * ion cleaned up the NDK headers * gvg added the autogenerated DIB code for 32 and 8 bpp * navaraf reimplemented the HAL DMA routines * There was some work on the MSVC backend, thanks to sedwards and royce * navaraf fixed some bugs in NDIS * navaraf tweaked the explorer taskbar, fixing the misaligned buttons under windows This exposes a bug in ReactOS, so the taskbar looks a little off now. 17604 seems like a good way to start September: * shutdown bug fixed * Default Abiword 2.2.9 install works * Abiword 2.2.9 runs and opens documents. * 7-Zip 4.23 Installer works * 7-Zip GUI has several issues * 7za.exe (cli) works * OO installer unpacks, but bombs a few pages in * notepad opens and saves files properly * winemine doesn't work * solitare works * ps works * mc seems like it has issues (I'm not a user per se.) * format still doesn't work * calc doesn't even start * cat works * regedit can set values * wallpaper stays if set in registry, not if using desk.cpl Networking: * qemu networking fixed * ftp fixed * ping works * ipconfig has issues * finger works * "route print" works * netstat doesn't work * ncftp has issues * hostname works * arp doesn't work * mIRC installer works, fails creating icons (or start menu I don't remember) * mIRC has several issues, can't get it to connect and the usual implementing new functions, syncing to wine, and bugfixes. Overall 17604 "feels" good and stable. I was able to use the command line without too much trouble, installed many packages, and only saw a few BSODs, mainly in the network code. I think that is a pretty good summary, and since it's been the day of long emails, I won't go any further. Please reply to this email if there is something I forgot, overlooked, got wrong, etc.. WD -- #irc.freenode.net #reactos 01:03PM <filip2307> i don't know about any bug 01:04PM <filip2307> none exist 01:04PM <filip2307> ReactOS is prefect

ReactOS Revision ISOs
by Sylvain Petreolle 04 Sep '05

04 Sep '05

Hi all, After doing some regression tests with SVN ISOs, it appears some are missing/badly numbered. Here is the updated list. ReactOS-trunk-rxxxxx.iso -> real revision ReactOS-trunk-r17465.iso -> r17560 ReactOS-trunk-r17466.iso -> r17539 ReactOS-trunk-r17468.iso -> r17559 ReactOS-trunk-r17471.iso -> r17567 ReactOS-trunk-r17472.iso -> r17553 ReactOS-trunk-r17473.iso -> r17565 ReactOS-trunk-r17478.iso -> r17552 ReactOS-trunk-r17479.iso -> r17569 ReactOS-trunk-r17490.iso -> r17572 ReactOS-trunk-r17495.iso -> r17553 These files did show the same version (md5sum proved they are different) ReactOS-trunk-r17480.iso -> r17564 ReactOS-trunk-r17482.iso -> r17564 ReactOS-trunk-r17476.iso -> r17566 ReactOS-trunk-r17483.iso -> r17566 ReactOS-trunk-r17489.iso -> r17566 Kind regards, Usurp (aka Sylvain Petreolle) humans are like computers, yesterday the BIOS was all - today its just a word

The caller waits on a semaphore and the semaphore is only signaled if a message is in the queue. This means, the caller can't get a NULL pointer from EiDequeueMessagePort(). The real problem is anywhere in KeWaitForSingleObject, which does return STATUS_USER_APC for a non alertable wait. That is wrong. - Hartmut
