What about internally rendering it at double the pixel dimension, then applying bicubic resampling before screen render? How about an OpenGL solution for hardware antialiasing support? Just a couple of ideas.

Sub-pixel rendering coup

by George Edward Purdy

The one thing a lot of people I know who use Windows 2000 have talked about that tempted them to switch to Windows XP despite the bloat is ClearType subpixel rendering technology, an alternate to simple font smoothing introduced in Windows 95. If ReactOS can offer superior subpixel rendering of fonts (ala Photoshop or better) I could see it seriously competing.

It's funny, I used to think MS tried too hard to put every feature under the sun in their OS, but after reading discussions like this, I realize the conundrum they were in. I suggest we build several explorers, the explorer shell should have the SDI approach with an optional directroy tree pane, a winfile style shell with an MDI interface, and a filezilla shell with a tab interface. Then we let the users decide which shell they like. >_______________________________________________ >ros-general mailing list >ros-general(a)reactos.com >http://reactos.com/mailman/listinfo/ros-general Rex Jolliff rex(a)lvcm.com ReactOS (www.reactos.com) -- Check it out

Problems booting

by James Pritchard

I've been trying to use the 0.2 release on some real hardware and am having problems with getting it to boot. I've tried the binary version using a windows 98 base and booting into a dos prompt. This method results in the computer restarting almost immediately. That was using aboot.bat or boot.bat (modified to debug to screen). I then tried the iso which booted and started the installer. I installed it fine on to the first partition of the first harddisk which is set as active. When it reboots at the end of the install freeloader fails to find it configuration file.and one time said that it had found invalid partition magic. I'm keen to get this working so I can start debugging the code and making the GDI more functional. The machine I'm trying to run this on is a Pentium 133 with 48 Mb of ram a 4 gb HD on IDE1 master, cd on IDE2 master. Any ideas or advice on how to get a log file out of the loader? I do have yesterdays CVS and have built it but haven't tried it yet. James Pritchard
