Re: Visopsys 0.7 release candidate
No no, that can't be a filesystem error. Those error messages are generated before any filesystem is mounted. Those are hardware detection errors. Actually, it sort of looks like a problem was generated during mouse detection. There is a known bug wherein moving the mouse during PS/2 mouse detection...

Re: Visopsys 0.7 release candidate
Well alright then :P Here's the new release candidate: http://visopsys.org/files/visopsys/visopsys-2011-02-11-iso.zip It has changes to the IDE drive detection code, which should fix the problem seen in VirtualBox. It works in VmWare also, and a couple of real systems I've tested, but it would be he...
Re: USB
That's right, yes, I think the top-level USB layer should be implementation-agnostic enough, meaning you can add other host controller types. In the current version, there's even a kernelUsbOhciDriver.c file that detects them, etc. So, implementing it would mean taking that file and expanding it by ...

Re: Visopsys 0.7 release candidate
Cheers for the info! I think I've fixed the IDE problem, so it works in VmWare and VirtualBox, but I have to test on a few systems to make sure it doesn't break them. Turns out I was previously booting VirtualBox from a floppy disk image, and didn't notice that it wasn't detecting the IDE disks :doh:

Re: Visopsys discussion forum
Don't have time to type it up right this minute, but I can do later. Have a look at the messages files stuff in Linux (.po and .pot files). All the strings get extracted into a text file, and you just add the translations. Then the locale variables can be set to tell the application which language f...

Re: Visopsys 0.7 release candidate
Is this using VirtualBox?
It was working for me the other day, but when I tried it this morning I think I'm seeing the same problem..
Argh.

Re: Visopsys discussion forum
Absolutely, cut and paste is something that's needed. Obviously it would need a generic 'object' framework so that different kinds of things could be used with it (e.g. text, images, dragging and dropping icons, etc). I don't think it will be in 0.7 final though :lol: I'm just trying to nail down on...

Re: Suport for animated cursors.
Hi lukves, I haven't tried to do anything like that, yet, but you're right that the animation of a pointer wouldn't be too difficult from the point of view of the OS. However, it looks like the ANI/RIFF file formats would take a bit of getting used to; the RIFF file format specification looks (at fi...
