Hi, I've just been able to make ReactOS up & running, but whilst trying to launch the File Explorer, a bluescreen occurred. :-( See the attached screenshot I made with my virtual machine (VirtualBox 2.0.6).

ReactOS on VirtualBox 2.0.6

by Jacek Rużyczka

Hello everybody, I am now trying to test the last release of ReactOS on VirtualBox 2.0.6 with Windows XP as preset guest system. However, I encounter reproducible crashes at boot time. This is what the log says: 00:36:00.871 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 00:36:01.871 Changing the VM state from 'RUNNING' to 'GURU_MEDITATION'. 00:36:01.921 Display::handleDisplayResize(): uScreenId = 0, pvVRAM=00007fe1d2a52000 w=640 h=480 bpp=0 cbLine=0x140 00:36:01.921 ERROR [COM]: aRC=NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) aIID={09789f63-4525-48e5-a5e4-1080453b0eab} aComponent={Display} aText={Could not take a screenshot (VERR_BUFFER_OVERFLOW)} aWarning=false, preserve=false 00:36:06.416 Console::powerDown(): A request to power off the VM has been issued (mMachineState=6, InUninit=0) 00:36:06.417 vboxClipboardDestroy: shutting down host clipboard 00:36:06.421 Shared clipboard: host clipboard thread terminated successfully 00:36:06.425 Changing the VM state from 'GURU_MEDITATION' to 'OFF'. 00:36:06.425 Changing the VM state from 'OFF' to 'DESTROYING'.

I am taking a break...

by Eric Kohl

Hi! Effective immediately I am taking a break from working on ReactOS for an undetermined period of time. It may even be the end of my involvement with ReactOS. There are several reasons for me to quit but the most important one is lack of time. I have a pretty exhausting job and spend more than 2 hours a day to commute so there is not much time left to spend on ReactOS. So working on ReactOS happened on weekends only. After my latest patch was partially reverted, I decided that I am not willing to create and maintain a development branch for improvements to LSA and SAM. I am not willing to spend an hour or two each weekend for branch maintenance and debugging and another two or three hours for developing new code. It just does not make sense to me. Maybe I will be back one day, maybe I will not. Time will tell. Over and out! Eric

FOSDEM booth/devroom sharing

by François Revol

(sent to AROS (please forward, I'm not on the dev list), ReactOS, Syllable, CCed to Haiku) Hello, I'm a Haiku developer, <http://haiku-os.org> and I would like to propose sharing a devroom, eventually a booth at FOSDEM with some other FOSS OS projects. I sent to the mailing lists as I couldn't identify a specific contact, and I don't know how much centralized each project is. Last year we had our own booth at FOSDEM (we it shared with an ERP software), I really enjoyed the event, and would like to also get a devroom this year. But I'm not sure we will have enough people to animate it all the time (currently 3 or 4), plus we'd still have a stand to look after. http://www.haiku-os.org/blog/mmu_man/2008-02-25/hello_from_fosdem I know we shared a booth at last LinuxWorld with ReactOS and I heard it was interesting: http://www.haiku-os.org/blog/umccullough/2008-08-06/day_1_at_linuxworld_200… http://www.haiku-os.org/blog/umccullough/2008-08-07/day_2_at_linuxworld_200… As the deadline for booth and devroom application approaches (it's before 22 nov.), I was thinking about sharing a devroom that could be called "alternative OSes", "grep -v GNU/Linux" or alike, with other projects. This way we could all get a devroom with fewer people to man it. As for our project, we could have talks and hacking sessions on many subjects, from architecture and design to installation, and specific things like the using the FreePascal port, porting applications, using replicants (like NetSurf). We could also have common talks, about the platforms we support, our design and goals. And if needed we could probably also share a booth with another project I suppose, last year we shared with a totally different software. I'll be mailing a booth and devroom request tomorrow precising it, before it's too late. François.
