Anybody know int-31?
by Bob Goodwin May 21, 2001

May 21, 2001

I want to run an application that requires win95 but relys heavily on DOS interupt functions. Specifically it requires interupt 31 which is just a stub in Wine. It appears (from R.B.'s list) that there is no limit on calls to interupt_31-AX=0305 (request the address of (?:the:a) save/restore handler.) That implies more than one thread could have a save/restore pointer. When calling the save/restore handler function, the only parameter passed is a byte in AL to indicate whether to save the current context or restore a saved context. My question is, are there multiple copies of the save/restore function or at least multiple entry points? It seems that this would be the only way of having multiple unique context saves. It would be differrent if a unique `handle' was returned by int_31 instead of a call address. If only one context can be stored at a time, do I need a spin-lock within the save/restore function to keep other applications holding until their turn? Thanks. Bob Goodwin

Re: Networking with Mandrake 8.0 and SuSE 7.1
by Steve Fox May 21, 2001

May 21, 2001

This weekend I upgraded to Mandrake's 2.4.4 kernel from Cooker (since it fixed both my mouse and token ring) and suddenly this problem has gone away (using Notes 5.0.7 and wine-20010305). I'm still planning to go through Mandrake's 2.2.19 SRPM and find which patch messes things up (I can't use a Linus-only kernel because I need reiserfs). I will post again once I have narrowed down the list of suspects. I'm guessing it has to be a common patch since SuSE seems to have the same symptoms.

Hardware messages need to be integrated into the new queue handling, I'm working on it but it will probably take a few days. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

I guess that this one is probably because of a still incomplete implementation; what happens is : - I click in the vertical scrollbar - the text begins to scroll (for some reason this particular text is very slow to scroll) - the scroll timer expires and scrolls again the page The WM_LBUTTONUP (supposed to end this loop) is not received until 20 pages later. If I test with a text that scrolls much faster, the problem is much less severe (only one page too much). It seems to be a message order problem; before Wine had - hardware messages (mouse, keyboard) - timer Now it is - timer - hardware messages There is a nice FIXME in the new message handling around the old timer handling code, so maybe fix is pending ?

Ah, I was not understanding how the moderation is working (just read Andi's explanations on cemw). So the extraordinary delays I see sometimes on my posts to wine mailing lists are probably caused by my ISP beta testing IP on avian carriers. >(This is not the case with the >integrita archives, though, since integrita is just one of the >subscribers, subject to the whims of the MTA.) Did you use Reload? It's hard to remember what I did past 2 in the morning. I think that the following morning I looked only at Integrita; they seem to have not taken in account anything since. I'll take a look more accurately next time. Thanks for the explanations. Gerard
