Re: [ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [cfinck] 36643: Update some links properly and update the description of Opera (sounds stupid to use the same for Firefox and Opera)
by Aleksey Bragin 05 Oct '08

Using "latest-X.0" looks more correct than specifying exact version number two times. WBR, Aleksey.

Re: [ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [fireball] 36426: [FORMATTING] - Reformat to the kernel coding style.
by Alex Ionescu 05 Oct '08

Please show me where the developers of this code agreed to having their code GPL V3 licensed. I would like to see a full trail of every developer that wrote this code, as well as written permission from them for you to slap on this license. Thank you.

Re: [ros-dev] Reformat to the kernel coding style.

Pasting gpl notices in every file of a project, takes up space. better to put in license.txt in project root to encompass all source files. but most that don't like a license will refuse to use it and just copy paste the code anyways, and not say where they got it. (happens all the time). kinda makes me wonder why we got licenses for software in the first place, seems to be silly constructs of obstructionism. GPLv3 don't allow you to control the software that runs on the custom hardware, inability to link to the code with out upsetting the original author. ce From: James Tabor <jimtabor.rosdev(a)gmail.com> To: ReactOS Development List <ros-dev(a)reactos.org> Sent: Saturday, October 4, 2008 12:38:23 AM Subject: Re: Reformat to the kernel coding style. 1st: No to v3! 2nd: No to v3! 3rd: No to v3!

Why wrap into #ifdefs? I thought it's supposed to be runtime, not compile time. WBR, Aleksey.

CMPXHG8B Support
by Alex Ionescu 01 Oct '08

01 Oct '08

I was asked on IRC to add support for non-Intel and AMD CPUs to the kernel. Obviously I can't do that -- but I mentioned that some special "magic tricks" need to be done to enable support for the instruction on other CPUs, which is why I made the kernel bugcheck. Thankfully, someone documented the steps required, so I won't get in trouble for pointing out this link for you: http://www.geoffchappell.com/notes/windows/kernel/cpu/cx8.htm. I can confirm that's what the kernel does. Do that too, and you can then support Transmeta/Rise/VIA CPUs. Best regards, Alex Ionescu
