Re: What is the goal of ReactOS?

It is just that we devs are tired being constantly reminded that "ReactOS sucks cuz Alpha, hurrr durr ReactOS development slow, hurr durr OS buggy, hurr durr devs slow like snails" , so much that the view is blurry on determining if someone has a legitimate concern for the project on how ...

Re: What is the goal of ReactOS?

Wishing leads to nowhere. I agree. In these forums I avoid complaining that features I desire are absent, progress is too slow, etc. Such complaints show disrespect to the developers and direct participants in the ReactOS project. All that said, I do not believe the OP (original poster) intended an...

Ha! That's no criticism of ReactOS itself. Every fan of ReactOS wishes that the dev team was bigger, faster, stronger, etc.

Re: What is a definitive objective of respond os?

What's so bad about ReactOS's design? How did you conclude that the original poster (OP), zanewiller, believes ReactOS's design is bad? I did not conclude that. I believe zanewiller wished that the ReactOS project was closer to its goal and that more developers would join the project. Rocket engine...

Re: What is a definitive objective of respond os?

...what the hell is respond os? Also I must admit I haven't heard of those "cycles" before. I suspect that the native language of the OP, zanewiller , is not English. Perhaps zanewiller must translate these reactos.org web into zanewiller's native language. Zanewiller wrote a post in zane...

Re: reactos priority? or mess?

...dude you (LMH1, the original poster) fail to understand it's alpha... Reviews of ReactOS on some of the online publications fail to mention that ReactOS is at the alpha stage of software development . The very slick ReactOS.org web site's home page gives visitors the impression that ReactOS is a...

Re: Can't set IP Address

I'm running release 11 under VirtualBox. The networking doesn't work. ... Welcome toml_12953 and thank you for giving ReactOS a try. I'm not a super-expert on ReactOS and I know little about its networking support. But one of the super-smart developer team members (devs) will probably see your supp...

Feel free to update any or all of those places with the updated information.
I do feel free to update the ReactOS Wiki. But I do so on only for topics that I know something about.

Re: 0.4.13 on IBM T42, working with glitches

... The laptop does not have the COM/RS-232 port directly on its chassis. It is however accessible via the port replicator. I tried fetching debug information this way and it worked just fine.
