Sign driver for 64 Bit Build of Virtual Floppy Drive for Windows?
by Carsten Krüger 05 Jun '11

05 Jun '11

Hi, I know that for some open source projects React OS sign's windows drivers. Could you please sign the driver for virtual floppy drive? Motivation: Virtual Floppy drive is very helpfull, for example take freedos floppy image, include Samsung SpinPoint F4 EcoGreen HD204UI firmware update into the image and put it with unetbootin on usb stick. Problem: virtual floppy drive didn't run on windows 7 x64 because the need of driver signing. Homepage: http://vfd.sourceforge.net/ Description: >This is a virtual floppy drive for Windows NT / 2000 / XP developed by Ken Kato >(Reported to work also on 2003 Server and Vista). <-- and windows 7 x86, too. > >You can mount a floppy image file as a virtual floppy drive and directly access the contents -- >view, edit, rename, delete or create files on a virtual floppy, format a virtual floppy, >launch a program on a virtual floppy... almost anything you can do with a real floppy. vfdwin x64 driver build (unsigned) from "critical0" http://sourceforge.net/projects/vfd/files/2.1%20(February%2006%2C%202008)/v… vfdwin x64 driver build (unsigned) from "Igor Levicki" http://levicki.net/downloads/sendfile.php?path=vfd_x64/vfd_x64.zip Discussion about the different versions: http://levicki.net/articles/stories/2007/08/17/The_story_of_the_vfdwin_21_6… greetings Carsten

About debugging ROS
by Xu Liu 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

I am just a new person who wants to debug ROS, so my questions may be stupid. I have checked http://www.reactos.org/wiki/Debugging . It seems the main debugging way is "Debugging through text messages" (I think it is more like "checking logs"). If I want to use GDB, I have to use QEMU. Would you please tell me is Kdbg the only way to debug code in VMWare or VirtualBox? And if I want to debug ReactOS, do I have to install QEMU or VMWare or VirtualBox? Using "make install" in RosBE can generate many binary files. Is there any build-in way to start ROS from these bin files without any virtual machine? Thank you in advance.

BuildBot changes
by Colin Finck 24 Jan '11

24 Jan '11

Hello all, As you have certainly noticed, Amine, Olaf and me have upgraded the BuildBot some days ago. While doing this, we have added Olaf's build slaves which used to be available at http://reactos.ath.cx:8081. The new BuildBot version finally enables authenticated access for features like forcing a build. When you want to do this now, you have to enter your SVN credentials into the respective fields. If you are a tester and need these BuildBot features, please ask Aleksey or me for getting the appropriate credentials. In the next few days, we're probably going to make the testing results of his CMake bot available at http://reactos.org/testman and upload his builds to http://iso.reactos.org. I might also change the BuildBot Web page design. Now that the main part has got wider, we might remove the ReactOS design around it to get some space for the real important stuff. - Colin

Getting a Windows Server 2003 license for the project?
by Colin Finck 19 Jan '11

19 Jan '11

Hi everybody, I've been thinking about getting a license of an English Windows Server 2003 Standard 32-Bit for the project. It could be installed on one of our servers and be made available over RDP. This would enable project members to do development and testing work on our actual target platform. Considering that some developers even use a non-Windows platform for development work, it might simplify their work as well. We may as well use the license for other purposes (Buildslave, Testslave, whatever), but at least native building could be done by any Windows version. And in this case, I might be able to donate an XP Pro license myself (German though). As I don't know about the needs of the other members, I'd like to hear your opinion about my idea. It would also be nice to hear if anybody knows a cheap (but legal!) way to get such a license or can even donate one (e.g. unused OEM license shipped with a server, unused license after getting Server 2008, etc.) English Windows licenses are rare/expensive on German eBay, so this would only be a last resort :-) Cheers, Colin P.S.: If you have the opposite problem and actually need a Linux VM available over SSH/RDP (e.g. for testing build system changes), just let me know and I could set it up.

Re: [ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [mkupfer] 50398: - Fix draw of cursors in static controls - Last part of fix for bug #4874
by Timo Kreuzer 16 Jan '11

Shouldn't that work the same way (at least if there is any hbmColor)? Cursors can have a different size as well, so maybe we should rather query the hbmMask, if hbmColor is 0(=) I didn't bother reading the context of the function though.
