Ok cool :) I just thought it would be nice intigrated... better than windows anyways. After a clean install on windows as soon as I connect to the internet to attempt to go to the zonealarm site to download it I get worms. That's just a question of configuration. A well configured PC doesn't really...

Networking isn't complete on ROS. I suggest you use something else.

For using php, why not use the KNOPPIX livecd. Nothing to install.

whenever I run "svn up" I'm impressed by the fact that I see changes no matter how often I do it. I see many oss projects go days or even longer without any changes to the cvs or svn repository. Microsoft obviously will try to counter reactos and wine. Maybe a radical change that would tak...

According the the bugzilla entry for bug #688, the AllocConsole problem was fixed in r18699. Yet I just burned 2 CDs, 0.2.8 and SVN r18867. Both CDs have the AllocConsole problem. What's the problem?

I just built a livecd from r-18311 from svn. My mouse doesn't work. It's an MX700 connected to the USB port.

Is this the problem?

I'd really like it ReactOS could handle hardware clook being set to UTC.

How should I partition my hard drive so I can multiboot ReactOS, Windows XP Home, and Gentoo Linux? I'm asking because ReactOS is quite picky about the partitioning.

B,E,(none of the above: A working installer),3D Accelerators,A,A 1. Wine seems to have taken the 2nd mentality. And Office works perfectly in it. But throw anything else odd at it, and you'll be glad if you finnish the installer. So ROS should focus on completing the OS to be as compatible with as m...

What's the problem with WPA? I use WPA-PSK on my wireless network, so I'd need it to connect to my wireless network. ROS should definitly aim to implement WEP and WPA.

Installation of ReactOS takes a fraction of the time it takes to install Windows XP.

Without application compatability ReactOS could turn into another Wine. I've been following Wine since 1998 and there is still a mountain of Windows appliactions which kinda-sorta run but not very well, or don't run well enough to be usable. Without Windows application compatability ReactOS might a...

The first thing ReactOS should focus on is making sure the installer works. None of those other items even matter at all if I can't install it.

I have not been able to install ReactOS on real hardware yet for this reason. If you notice the bug report was for reactos 0.2.4. I just tried it in 0.2.6, same problem.

It would really help if this small thing (floppy drive support) was fixed so I could use reactos.

There is a lot of things that need to be done in ROS the IMHO are a lot more importent that performace increases on muli cpu, multi core, and hytperthreading machines.
