RE: [ros-general] Small issue with vmware and a small gripe

by Colin Burn

Maybe a couple of weeks of sun and beer? I've never managed to get into the spirit of coding on Reactos. I would love to, but I think at present everything is far too low level and the learning curve is just too great for me. -----Original Message----- From: Betam4x [mailto:eek2121@comcast.net] Sent: 06 August 2004 07:46 To: ros-general(a)reactos.com Subject: [ros-general] Small issue with vmware and a small gripe Hello all, long time no talk, working 2 jobs sucks ;) Anyways, one small issue here...the vmware wizard no longer pops up during installation...it used to at one point. BTW i'm using VMWare 4.5.2 build 8848 It's been a while since i actually worked on any part of ROS...mainly i haven't had the motivation to code or work on any projects at ALL. Anyone know of a cure for such a problem? I used to go DAYS coding and working on ideas i think up, now...nothing. Can't even bring myself to open ultraedit32 or visual C++... _______________________________________________ ros-general mailing list ros-general(a)reactos.com http://reactos.com/mailman/listinfo/ros-general

Here is a short and sweet draft of a ReactOS newsletter for the month of July- comments and suggestions are more than welcome.

by Wierd Wierd

ReactOS Newsletter, July 2004 ReactOS is an Open Source project licensed under the GNU General Public License, which aims at the high mark of being a commercially viable alternative for markets currently using versions of Microsoft Windows(tm) based on the NT kernel, such as Windows NT 4, Windows 2000, and Windows XP, with full application and driver support. While development of Reactos is still in its early stages, great amounts of effort have been poured into the project over the past month. Art Yerks and Alex Ionesco have been diligently working on ironing out all the snags with their TCP/IP implementation, and with several other networking related tasks. While it is still uncertain when truly functional networking will be working under ReactOS, the work done this month has brought that goal tangibly closer. Another boon this month was Structured Exception Handling. While not terribly interesting to most users, it is an important feature of a stable NT based kernel, which provides a means to trap exception faults, and prevent them from causing other problems for the host. S.E.H is a big step toward a functionally stable environment within ReactOS. While work continues, ReactOS now has a crude, but serviceable S.E.H implementation. Other things that have received attention this month are preliminary sound card support, a performance rewrite of the FAT file system driver, fixes for removable media support, and the beginnings of porting WINE's DirectX implementation, in addition to a multitude of compatibility and bug fixes. For more information, please visit the ReactOS homepage at HTTP://WWW.ReactOS.COM . Feel free to visit us on our FreeNode IRC channel, #Reactos, or on our mailing lists. We look forward to hearing from you! __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo! Mail - 100MB free storage! http://promotions.yahoo.com/new_mail
