why are people still making screenshots of unthemed ros :(
Chungy
Hmm?

Win2k theme is the best theme.
Mark
its not even a theme
Chungy
Sure it is
Mark
sure

Sure it is
For the note, you were arguing with one of developers who partially fixed some bugs in themes support
Chungy
Win2K theme at least gives it the venier of professionalism and looking like it's made for real work.
Everything else is... kid's toys.
Chungy
*shrugs* :p

<hbelusca (Gmunu=8PiG/c4Tmunu+)> 👍 👍 👍
Chungy
some of us actually prefer it :b

<hbelusca (Gmunu=8PiG/c4Tmunu+)> Alternatively there is the Watercolor (aka. Whistler) theme. This is a theme, but still gives that "veneer of professionalism" you were mentioning above.

the Zune theme kind of goes half-way to that too

What performance issues?
Can
On Development channel, Jerome Gardou said it's slow.
Anonymous
But what is slow about it?
Can
Seems it's running so slow

It was reported running in 2014. You can try it again

<hbelusca (Gmunu=8PiG/c4Tmunu+)> Can anyone stress-test https://github.com/reactos/reactos/pull/3361 ? (running your preferred programs on ROS compiled with this PR present) ? This is going to be otherwise merged this Monday, and it would be nice if ROS doesn't break more than what it currently is. Thanks!!

I tested it somewhat

It didn't break anything for me

Made it possible to install without corruption on my Macbook

I will do more testing of it on the VM I have games installed to soon

Very nice!

I tested it with the games

They all run fine

I did have a bsod but I don't remember how I got it

Need to do more testing

does ReactOS support booting from PCMCIA storage device?
Harrison
Seems it's behaving just like USB case.

Freeldr works but system won't start.

The bsod didn't happen

I still got fat32 corruption when closing a VM while it was running a batch file that continuously overwrites a file
Mike
I'm curious, could you please share that file?
Anonymous
Huh?
Anonymous
The batch file is as follows
Anonymous
@echo off
Anonymous
:loop
Anonymous
echo Dummy > Dummy
Anonymous
goto loop
Anonymous
Make a batch containing those lines, run it, wait a little bit and then close the VM
Anonymous
On the next boot, it will give the Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to logon dialog box
Mark
killing the VM almost always corrupts the FS
Mark
does not really matter if you find 3000000 different things to do while you are killing it
Mike
Jonathan
Wait, when did you get a bsod?
Jonathan
Because today afternoon I got a bsod at boot after selecting ReactOS in the menu
Jonathan
My disk is formatted with fat32
Anonymous
You're welcome
Chungy
just trying to make it do the Ctrl-Alt-Del dialog thing, installed a few times, killed the VM on the desktop... just makes FreeLoader crash every time :D
Chungy
rosbridge
<hbelusca (Gmunu=8PiG/c4Tmunu+)> killing the VM will usually lead to any operation pending or being done in the registry to not being completed, and since we don't have any registry journalling and recovery as Windows has (and that triggers at reboot), the only thing that can happen in ROS when freeldr is loading the SYSTEM hive is to hit some failed assertion in the registry code, and you get that bugcheck screen.

My issue happens when a file not related to the OS is being overwritten and I close the VM
Chungy
the OS is doing a lot of things all the time
Anonymous
That shouldn't corrupt other files

Okay
