Commit by mjmartin :: r51344 reactos/drivers/usb/nt4compat/usbdriver/keyboard.c: (link)
[usbdriver]

KbdDispatch: Set Status vice IoStatus.Status for all branches of switch. Use break instead of goto intcontfailure. The previous code would set Status to what ever was in the IoStatus.Status of the IRP and return that Status. Some times this would be STATUS_PENDING, which IIRC is a no-no. This caused the kbdclass to enter into a wait that would never be satisifed hence blocking the keyboard thread. This should fix the failure of keyboard input bugs.

Fixed bug 4724

[WIN32K]

Revert part of 37148. One FontGDI is used for fonts with different sizes. Do not cache font metrics then and instead calculate them every time when needed. It fixes spacing in menus if some application uses default GUI font with size other than 11. See issue #4106 for more details.

Commit by Jimtabor: [Win32k] Fix KsStudios actions with Hooks. r51468

I personally love this Fix. Jimtabor Patch:
- UNIMPLEMENTED;
- break;
+ // We do not support anything else here so we should return normal even when sending a hook.
+ return 0;

The results:
Before that revision: User32:MSG 10255 tested.620 failed.
After that revision: User32:MSG 10522(+267)tested.600 (-20)failed.

I have never seen such performance (lineschanged/testsfixed)

[EVENTLOG]

Add event sources "EventLog" and "Service Control Manager" to the registry.
Implement an internal event reporting function and report the successful start of the event logging service.

Thanks to the recent work from Eric Kohl on the event service and event viewer, events start getting registered:

Commit by jimtabor :: r51571 reactos/subsystems/win32/win32k/ntuser/ (input.c msgqueue.c): (link)
[Win32k]

Move up the chain to convert F10 to system key mode before going into the queue, so when in menu tracking, the message can be removed and processed, see bug 1009.

James Tabor is working hard to get keyboard shortcuts working, thanks to his recent work now F10 and Shift-F10 work properly.

Add Switch Class support. See bug 5378. Original patch by David Quintana. Alt-Tab works the same as windows, Alt-Esc needs more work.
