Virtual consoles using ntvdm
by Javier Agustìn Fernàndez Arroyo 04 Sep '18

04 Sep '18

A crazy idea .. What about implementing some kind of virtual consoles, just like Linux? The point is, using ntvdm subsystem, we could allow only console (DOS) apps to run in there. And some kind of "you are running a console. Switch to desktop to run this app!" Message is anyone tried to run another stuff What do you think? A side effect could be, allow remote connections, etc ... :)

Valve support for ReactOS?
by Javier Agustìn Fernàndez Arroyo 31 Aug '18

31 Aug '18

i was thinking about Valve's Linux support (Steam play) and i was wondering about asking them to support ReactOS via development... Since Windows XP/2k3 are being abandoned, maybe ReactOS could still run Steam games... if they support it. what do you think?

Broken booting since commit ae11022712db7a5a1e818e33a5f4052eac7e8e3c
by David Quintana (gigaherz) 30 Aug '18

I believe from the testbot log, that my commit made some DLLs grow out of their assigned memory allocation, but I don't know how to update the dll address mappings. Help appreciated.

Status Meeting (August 2018)
by Colin Finck 28 Aug '18

28 Aug '18

Hi all! Let me invite you to the August 2018 meeting, taking place this Thursday, August 30, 2018 at 19:00 UTC. Invited members will again receive their credentials shortly before the meeting. The current agenda is: 1. Status Reports (extended) Note that this is the first meeting after both GSoC and the Hackfest. Participants in either effort are encouraged to also report their related work, what they liked and didn't like about GSoC/ Hackfest, and what we could do better next time. As always, I'm open for additional proposals. I also have to announce that I will definitely be unavailable during the entire September, so someone else has to invite for and lead the September meeting. Best regards, Colin

Test_VBox finally fixed - but a flawed test remains
by Colin Finck 27 Aug '18

27 Aug '18

Hi all, I took some time during Hackfest to upgrade our Test_VBox Testbot to Ubuntu 18.04, which finally brings us VirtualBox 5.2.x support for sysreg2. Pierre also worked on the relevant BuildBot scripts to improve their reliability. This has resulted in https://github.com/reactos/buildbot_config/commit/388a831eb5ccf67535d8cbd6d… and since using that script, the infamous "IVirtualBox object is null" bug hasn't occurred again :) The upgrade from VirtualBox 4.3.40 to 5.2.10 also resulted in unbearably slow serial port output at first, but this could be fixed by https://github.com/reactos/sysreg2/commit/a4eb4a4551618b4af4dc1985ad8c55fe0…. Have a look at this commit if you encounter a slow serial port output in one of the latest VirtualBox versions with either operating system. This only leaves a funnily flawed WINE test left, which currently causes the entire regression testing process to come to a standstill: https://jira.reactos.org/browse/CORE-14975 Cheers, Colin
