I'm back :)
by Andrew Greenwood 30 Aug '04

30 Aug '04

Who would've thought living without broadband for a week would: - Feel like you've lost a limb - Result in 700+ emails from mailing lists being downloaded upon my return! Although I haven't contributed much to the project, I just thought I'd say I'm back... Been busy moving into a flat, and messing with wireless networking. Shame I don't really get time to do coding at the moment :(

Linux World in Germany
by Steven Edwards 29 Jul '04

29 Jul '04

Hello, I need to know who all is planning on comming to LinuxWorld.de so I can get us passes. We are limited to three exhibitor passes for free and any extra are 15 Euros I think so if you are going to come give me your name now. Seeing as how we only have a small space I dont want our booth to overflow or anything so maybe you just want to get a visitors pass and stop by and say hi. At the last LinuxWorld is was just myself and GvG so I hope that more will come this time. We only have two chairs as well so if there is going to be more of us showing up then we will have to trade off. The list is Me (99% sure), GvG, KJK:Hyperion, w3seek and ?

Crash report
by jh 25 Jul '04

25 Jul '04

ReactOS-core-20040724 Advent laptop - 850 MHz Pentium 3 - 320 Mb ram Having down-loaded the latest snapshot, I was having a look around this version for the first time. >From the start button I had gone into, Browse Files - Drives - C - Program Files - Amaya. From there, with all the pop-up windows still open, I moved the mouse to the rosexplorer item at the top of the first pop-up window from the start button, and click on it. ros then crashed to the blue screen, with these error messages: Bug detected (code 1e param 0 0 0 0) KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED Page Fault Exception: 14(2) Processor: 0 CS:EIP 8:c00012db <ntoskrnl.exe: 12db> cr2 f000ff83 cr3 1317c000 Proc: c1570768 Pid: 4 <csrss> Thrd: c15c6e08 Tid: 26 DS 10 ES 10 FS 30 GS 10 EAX: 00000001 EBX: 00000000 ECX: f000ff83 EDX: c15c6948 EBP: deacedbc ESI: 00c10eb0 ESP: deaced3c EDI: deacef84 EFLAGS: 00010292 kESP deaced3c kernel stack base deacc000 Frames: <hal.dll: 32c6> <win32k.sys: 1323e> <win32k.sys: 133f4> <win32k.sys: 1c701> <win32k.sys: 1ccdc> <win32k.sys: 1d005> <ntoskrnl.exe: 361d> <77E6FC5B> I have have repeated the moves above, this time rosexplorer appeared (I may have clicked on a empty part of the desktop window), and ros crashed again, but this time there was no blue screen and no error message. All there was, was a screen with one quarter green with vertical lines and the other three quarters were red with horizontal lines which changed to squares then back to lines, looping constantly between the two (lines then squares). Hope this can be of some help. Regards, jh

ROSLive CD - trial run
by Wesley Parish 22 Jul '04

22 Jul '04

FWIW, I burnt the ROSLive CD while in Win98SE, and then had a look at it. I could fire up the cmd.exe file while in Win98 and it ran and did everything I asked it to. A bit bare - I'll try to roll my own LiveCD with a few apps I need like AbiWord, emacs, etc. Any caveats, any warnings, any ideas, any suggestions? (I.e., is there a specified layout for files/directories? Or do they go any old where?) Very impressive - now I'll have to grab some old unused machine and test it out on that.

ReactOS 0.3.0 TODO
by Steven Edwards 19 Jul '04

19 Jul '04

Hello All, Well Arty and Alex along with a lot of help from others have networking almost to a usable state. So far the wish/feature list includes: - OpenOffice - FireFox - IRC - CVS - SEH (done?) Lets get some ideas of other things that need to be fixed or implemented. Sound support is going to be a post 0.3.0 bug for me as I dont have the time or knowlege to try and fix winmm/mmdrv. If you want to see sound on 0.3.0 you need to step up to the plate. Thanks Steven __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!

RE: [ros-general] ReactOS 0.3.0 TODO
by Colin Burn 13 Jul '04

For what its worth... I think getting a single networking app, such as cvs, running is sufficient to warrant a release. Other apps will follow and I think holding back until networking is complete is a waste of time. Getting some form of networking working should generate interest in the project and may get those illusive new developers to join in. Col

I'm back
by Robert Köpferl 12 Jul '04

One month without one's computer connected to the telecosmos. That's hard. There are of course these public internet access but you know ... webmail + 6 Mailinglists or downloading and building software... that's not possible. So, since I am available again, Steven, Ge and Co. I am now able to overtake the build job.
