BLIT/BLID
by Mario Frank 21 Jun '10

21 Jun '10

Hello, everyone. I am testing ReactOS for a few months and I am of the opinion that it is a really interesting Project. I am also here to anounce something. I saw on the homepage thay the ReactOS Team was present at CLD. Since I am Member of upLUG (Potsdam Linux User Group), I would like to forward a request. The 7. BLIT (BLID - Brandenburg Linux Info Day) will take place at Griebnitzsee (Potsdam/Berlin) on 6. of November and there is a possibility to present ReactOS on the BLID. If you are interested to come, you can find information on www.*blit*.org. But I have to warnyou , the website is german and I didn't find a button for changing the language. sincerly, Eladrion

Hallo, I have found a problem. SVN-version cannot boot from cdrom on real HW and Qemu (?!), but on 1 of 2 systems only. ros-3.11 works on 2 of 2 systems (real,qemu) s. details Whats going wrong? maybe a conflict with any HW.

Disscussion remove 3.11
by Heiko L. 20 May '10

20 May '10

Hallo, Yes, ROS is alpha. my recommendation: - please remove 3.11 from [1] causes: 1. Error opening freeldr.ini or file not found. - if boot from hda after install from cdrom - problem only if ! (hd0,1) (example: sda3) - workaround: replacing freeloader.sys from ReactOS 0.3.10 2. repository opendn.org offline (domain parking) - s. [2] - new: svn.reactos.org, but impossible to config in rapps.exe!! - workaround: wget rappmgr.cab An interested testuser will try to install a software at firsttime. The probability of successfulness: < 5% (0.5*0.1) heiko (qemu:3.10,3.11,bootcd-47265) ------------------------------------------------------------------- - workaround wget rappmgr.cab lnx # mount /dev/$part $mnt lnx # cd $mnt/ReactOS/rapps lnx # export http_proxy=http://proxy:3128/ ## optional lnx # wget http://svn.reactos.org/packages/rappmgr.cab lnx # cabextract rappmgr.cab [1] http://www.reactos.org/en/download.html [2] http://www.reactos.org/archives/public/ros-general/2010-May/002562.html

Please set up capturing of debug logs, as described on our wiki. Without those no one would have any idea what is going on with your install.

It works a lot better now. Screen is good, but performance is average. Also it hangs often :( I can't seem to open the ReactOS Explorer. It did open ONCE, but not any more. When it did open I couldn't find any software to install. Nothing seemed to happen. Any ideas ?? Thanks, Brendan.

Trouble with ROS on VirtualBox (OS X host)
by Brendan Simon (eTRIX) 19 May '10

19 May '10

I'm having trouble running Reactos 0.3.11 on VirtualBox (on an OSX host). The splash screen is fine, but when the desktop appears the colours go all crazy. Looks like this happens when some kind of background/desktop image is being displayed. Also, when the mouse is moved over icons (e.g. MyComputer), the icons get smudged. I have tried using VB 3.1.6, 3.18 and 3.2.0 but they all do the same thing. Anyone else seen similar issues ?? I did have it working once (on VB 3.1.6 I think) for a short while, but as soon as I installed the guest additions things when belly up. So, any tips or hints on how to get ROS working smoothly on VirtualBox ?? Are there any settings that I should definitely set or unset ?? Thanks, Brendan.
