Re: [Freedos-user] {Spam?} [OT] Problems in the ReactOS community...

2011-09-08 Thread japhethx gmail
What have I ever said in the ReactOS community that calls for threatening me with prosecution? If nothing merits this, there is proof then that the ReactOS community is troubled and possibly that this trouble is as serious as I suggest. Judge not, that ye be not judged. IOW: don't spam this

Re: [Freedos-user] Using vim 7.3 (vim73_46d32) crashes JEMMEX 5.74b

2011-06-05 Thread japhethx gmail
Just a note to let you know that repeated use of VIM 7.3.46 (DOS32 binary) will crash JEMMEX 5.74b if it is used. M$'s HIMEM and EMM386 works perfectly with it. I tried and I have no problems with VIM - that is, I DO have problems, but they are not related to crashes, but to the funny user

[snip] I think everybody has learned the last years that GPL software can be used without any second thoughts and distributed freely.[snip] No. I am also a real fan of the Free Software idea. Otherwise I wouldn't use FreeDOS (which is released under the GPL as well). Some developers may

1). NOEMS is rarely used, and a lot of things don't handle it well. ... ... I wouldn't do this. Just load a XMS driver only (and not via NOEMS). NOEMS is ok and safe, the switch which causes problems with some programs is FRAME=NONE. 2). Actually, I've noticed JEMM386 will hang if you

Re: [Freedos-user] jemm not allowing upper memory

2011-02-23 Thread japhethx gmail
I can’t get jemmex.exe to supply any upper memory. It seems to think that it is supplying it. Yes. And if is thinking that it does then it does, because it has full control over the paging tables. UMB supplied at a01f-b7ff, free. The UMBs are there, but DOS has ignored them. You should

I don't really use DOS any more, so I'm afraid I am unlikely to use your tool; I am just trying to clarify what you are being asked for, as you seem not to be getting it. He's getting it pretty good IMO. Additionally, there is this info: Reading the file LANSTAT.TXT, which is included in

In my previous UIDE comments the word P-R-E-S-E-N-T was truncated by whatever forum software is in use to the word S-E-N-T!! No problem here. There are 3 occurances of sent in your first post, and all threee have a nice pre prefix.

Re: [Freedos-user] Freedos 1.1 distribution...

2009-11-01 Thread japhethx gmail
I see no reason why there couldn't be a 1.1 release followed by a 1.2 release up to a 1.9 release. There is one very good reason: we don't have up-to-date packages... To release a v1.1, we'd need to have a complete liste of all latest FreeDOS packages. See
