P.s. it might help if I attached the app I mentioned ;) James Tabor wrote: > I have some arc code but it's not tested and I really want to finish this ASAP! After someone mentioned the state of the radio buttons the other day, I had a quick look at it. Our user32 code draws them pretty well (with one or two mods) As we're swapping test apps, I've attached one comparing the Windows and ROS variants. The problem ultimately comes down to NtGdiPie, NtGdiEllipse. If you don't have any updates to these 2 functions, I'll look at them when I get chance. > Here is a test program. Guess what part doesn't work? They all look pretty good, but strangely, they all appear to draw 1 pixel larger than the Windows version. Does the Windows code draw slightly undersize? Ged.

FAO JimT (or anyone else who may have secret fixes in their tree, Filip ;) ) Do you have any improvements to the mentioned functions. They need attention/improvement to improve the drawing of some of our UI controls. Don't wanna double up on work if someone already has something on this. Cheers, Ged.

Yet another VM
by Klemens Friedl 17 Jan '07

17 Jan '07

I read in the news that a new virtual machine software got released under GNU GPL v.2 (dual license) today (2007-01-15). It's called VirtualBox (VirtualBox.org) and is partly based on qemu code. On of the advantages are that it support Intel's VT (vanderpool), run as GUI app on Win and Unix and support WinNT 6 without glitches (as heise.de says). News entry and review (both in german): http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/83680 http://www.heise.de/open/artikel/83678 Heise.de said it is ready to compete with the latest versions of VMware, Parallels and VirtualPC. If that statement is based on facts or not and if it is a good reliable tool; I don't know as I have not tested it myself, as I am busy right now. I just posted it here, as it might be useful for someone. Klemens

Re: [ros-dev] Yet another VM

I'll probably get another weird email from the postmaster for this, but it is sufficient to me to say that the GPL allows commercial ventures to include code without the requirement of making the product open source. There are a few rules though - and I'm not the one to ask about those, but I know of many companies that include GPL code in their product without the need to make their product open source.

QEmu supports multiple snapshots as well, as it does USB, and it's fully open source. QEmu supports named pipes, mounting raw hard drives and any other disk that Windows can see, audio, networking etc. So I don't think it contains anywhere near as many features as QEMU, especially since most of the advanced ones you mentionned are *not* Open Source. I'm also quite curious on how they were able to take QEMU (a GPL product) and add USB support under closed source (which QEMU already has as GPL). Sounds like a bunch of hacks to me. -- Best regards, Alex Ionescu Project Lead, TinyKRNL Kernel-Mode Software Design Engineer, ReactOS _______________________________________________ Ros-dev mailing list Ros-dev(a)reactos.org http://www.reactos.org/mailman/listinfo/ros-dev

A small patch
by Grant A. Brady 15 Jan '07

15 Jan '07

I noticed a small problem with ROS's calculator; it was missing 8 pixels from the bottom in both normal and scientific modes. This lead to the calculator appearing chopped off at the bottom and looking rather bad. Here is a small patch fixing it. Grant A. Brady A.K.A bragr p.s. Here is the unmodified ROS calculator compared to Microsoft's on Windows XP: http://wtmfp.boldlygoingnowhere.org/calcs.png -- This email may or may not contain a virus.

Hi, So of you might already know that I have been working on desk.cpl appearance page patch for some time. (bugzilla #1732, but I have already some more local changes/fixes) Eric Kohl is working on the same area now, so I'd like to talk about it with him, so we will not do the same work twice. I could not contact him so far. so if you read this, Eric, please reply, or if someone can contact him, please tell him. Thanks, Timo
