I'm by far no expert, nor am I even on this developer list, but it doesn't make sense to me that Open Source NT cannot be supported being compiled in a completely open source environment - Richard Stallman would probably have a fit to hear this!

Is it mean that cross-compilation of ReactOS under *nix not supported longer? It's no good...

Blue Screen of Death
by Nathan Lane 11 Dec '06

11 Dec '06

Hi, I am new to this project. I have been experimenting with the QEmu package that is available for download on your site, and I have come up against: every time I install an application, specifically the Mozilla ActiveX plugin for any of the Internet browsers I get a blue screen of death. Here is the info on it: How do I get around this problem? I'm a pretty good QEmu user I think, so if you have any ideas, then I'd appreciate it. Thanks, Nathan

Hi!, im currently working in the ext2 driver, although only in my local copy (i'm still learning about the ReactOS kernel...). I currently got it to compile with the current trunk, after solving some header problems (the ext2 branch is based on the old ReactOS tree structure and it doesnt work (at least the last time i checked)). Note that i have applied all my changes to a CC patched trunk. The CC branch is currently working, applied to a recent version of the trunk. It has a "minor" problem under QEMU which slows down disk access at the middle of the installation. I dont know why this happens. I had taken a look at the ReiserFS v3 driver in the vendor folder in the SVN. Im trying to get it to compile, but i'm having problems with SEH (i took some parts from the ext2 branch to disable it). At this moment my time is very limited. I hope to have some time in the next months to continue working on this. Thats it, Regards, Logan_V8 PS: Resending due to wrong format :P -- _______________________________________________ Get your free email from http://www.linuxmail.org Powered by Outblaze

ReactOS case study
by Roman Hoegg 20 Nov '06

20 Nov '06

Hello everybody! My name is Roman Högg (RomanH) and I have occasionally posted to this mailing list and the web site forum in the past for a variety of reasons. (offering/asking for help, submitting the Swiss German keyboard layout, etc.) I now contact you for something completely different. Together with the Helsinki School of Economics, Luleå University of Technology, Nokia and IBM Business Services, our institute ( http://www.mcm.unisg.ch ) is conducting a study called "Collabora-tion4Innovation (C4I)". The study is funded by the European Commission and is examining the im-pact of diversity within teams on factors such as innovation, creativity and productivity. By diversity we mean things like cultural diversity, different skills, different educational backgrounds, etc. In the first phase of the project we are currently conducting a number of case studies from a variety of areas. The goal is to find the "state of the art" and later define areas in which further research is needed (e.g. organisational aspects such as process design, improving collaboration technologies, etc.) Since ReactOS is - as far as I can see - developed by a pretty diverse set of people (developers from different countries, probably with different skills and non-developers/users/testers that try to improve the software in whatever way they can) I wanted to ask whether it would be possible to conduct a "Reac-tOS Case Study". I think it would be nice to not only have companies in the case studies. If you agree to this idea, I would like to conduct interviews with 2-3 persons of you (in English or German, most likely via phone). Each interview would last between 45 minutes and 1,5h maximum. (or I could send the questionnaire/interview guide in advance and we would only discuss the more open questions over the phone). After the interviews I would condense everything into a 3-4 page description of the project and the aspect of diversity. You would then get that text and could tell me whether you agree with it or whether I would have to change things. Nothing will be published without your consent! Unfortunately I can't offer you any money for the collaboration, but I think the study will give the project some additional promotion and, if you want to, you may of course use my text for documenta-tion purposes. Please let me know what you think and thank you very much!!! kind regards Roman ------------------------------------------ Roman Högg Research Assistant =mcm institute for Media and Communications Management University of St. Gallen, Switzerland Blumenbergplatz 9, 9000 St. Gallen Phone +41 (0)71 224 34 39 Mobile +41 (0)79 418 59 13 e-mail roman.hoegg(a)unisg.ch http://www.mcm.unisg.ch http://www.alexandria.unisg.ch/Personen/Roman_Hoegg

I've just read the filesystems section of the Developer FAQ and it says: * -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Q* Why don't you implement Ext2/3 instead of focusing on NTFS?* - A* Because NTFS is a major feature which must be supported at some time. Ext2/3 is of course a topic for us, however there are already projects whose goal it is to implement Ext2/3 for NT. We will utilize these drivers when they are good enough. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So... if you are going to use the code from one of the many projects for ext2/3 drivers around there "when they are good enough", why do the ROS source has a driver in /reactos/drivers/filesystems/ext2? Is it one of the popular IFS ext2/3 drivers that has, meanwhile, become "good enough"? Or is it a ReactOS internal subproject? And what about NTFS? Does the driver in /reactos/drivers/filesystems/ntfs do something? Does it read? Is it an internal project? JJ _______________________________________________________ Novidade no Yahoo!

ReactOS problems
by Escorter 16 Oct '06

16 Oct '06

Hi everybody! I have some problems with ReactOS. Today, I've tried to install the latest stable release ("0.2.x") to my old DOS gaming computer. The computer booted the installer, I set the preferences of the system, I formatted the hard disk, the file copying was successfull. At the end of the installation, the installer ordered me to remove all media, so I removed the install CD. The last screen said that the installer is checking the files on the hard disk, and when it's done, the system will reboot automatically. But something is wrong: the progress indicator at the bottom of the screen said: "Flushing cache", and my machine locked up completely. After I did a hard reset, the bootloader said: "Disk error". I've tried to reinstall ReactOS about 3 times, but the installer always locked up at the last screen. The system is: CPU: Pentium II (with MMX), 300 MHz RAM: 64 Mb Graphics card: S3 Trio64 Hard disk: Quantum Fireball, 540 Mb Later, I've created a ReactOS LiveCD. It boots up corretly, but the system is weird: when I drag an icon in the explorer, then I release the mouse button, I get a completely empty Blue Screen of Death. I've also tried to set the video preferences, so I've opened up the controll panel, then opened up the screen preferences. But when I clicked in the last tab, the system closed the window. When I open an explorer window, the content of the window is messed up. But when I drag the window to a different location, the content is displayed correctly. What can I do now?
