Unfortunately they're still upside down on r64947.
The icons also got a bit worse on 16-bit depth in some cases - Rapps has black parts of icons (r64947, r64915) - maybe it's this CORE-8695

I nominate Eric Kohl (ekohl) for a retroactive Fix of the Week for the week of September 28 through October 4, 2014. His partition code rewrite committed in several revisions from r63355 to r64487 (last commit on October 3, 2014) has resolved these bugs:
  • CORE-4261 - USetup damages partition table (over 5 years old!)
  • CORE-5206 - Setup fails with typical Linux Partition Table
  • CORE-5673 - ReactOS setup generates corrupted FAT filesystem

Hermes Belusca-Maito and his continuous effort of improving freeloader abilities

https://code.reactos.org/changelog/reac ... t/freeldr/
66051 changed 6 files trunk
[REACTOS]
Add basic Hybrid-CD generation to our build system.
Few changes were needed, especially in how we deal with the CD target "all": it's only for all the CD targets *BUT* the hybridcd. For the hybridcd you need to always specify the target manually (like in "... FOR all hybridcd" or "... FOR bootcd hybridcd" for example).
Since at the moment we cannot have the bootcd in RAMDISK, and I want to be able to either have the hybridcd booting livecd from within the CD (i.e. read/writes from the CD) or in RAMDISK, I need to also add the files that are going to be copied into the bootcd or livecd into the hybridcd.

Many thanks to all the devs who work on ReactOS.

Also, thank you Jedi-to-be for pointing out some especially notable fixes as Fix of the Week. I enjoy learning about them.

I nominate the work of aandrejevic and others on the Fast486 FPU for Fix of the Week.

aandrejevic's log message for revision 67934 is, "Now that the Fast486 FPU is feature-complete, tell programs that we have a built in FPU. (This commit may cause regressions if there are bugs in the FPU.)"

Have you gotten it to work? I haven't.
I use ReactOS on real hardware. Will you? My Computers: https://www.reactos.org/wiki/PC_ROS_Rigs Go all the way to the bottom.

This is not about a certain fix, but about a week. In this week we have already seen over -150-160 commits by ROS devs, which is awesome! Depending on your definition of week and your timezone, there may be up to a day and a half left :-)

Too many commits which deserves the Fix of the Week, but since I am an "user" guy, I would say:

James Tabor for his Layered support commit, which will make a lot of apps which uses layered windows really happy.
It is just a green commit but more work is hopefully following. There are a lot of "this window is not shown when clicked here or launched" bugreports in Jira and most are due "unsupported layered windows". So expect some bugs being fixed...

The ReactOS Rocking Week hasnt ended. All started with a HackFest.
