.SYS Drivers
by Andrew Neil Ramage 01 Jan '07

01 Jan '07

Is there any way to interface between the hardware and windows .SYS and .VXD device drivers ? If it is possible, I would be interested in writing the interface. -- Andrew "Oh, bother," said the Borg. "We've assimilated Pooh."

Does it make a real difference for your program ? regarding #3, it's a left over from old code, where we handled differently read and write operations. However, your proposed fix looks acceptable (and is similar to what is done for ReadComm16 anyway). I'd suggest anyhow to split this patch in smaller chunks, since they don't correlate at all (in their fixes) you should provide : - #1 & #2 together (if #2 is really needed) (as typos in ntdll/serial.c code) - #3 as a speed improvement for 16bit comm support - #4 as an erroneous wait operation A+

Wine 32-bit address space
by Nick Burns 01 Jan '07

01 Jan '07

According to http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/aa366912.aspx The range 3GB (0xC0000000) - 4GB (0xFFFFFFFF) is considered system memory and apps should not write here (not sure why you would want to read from there either). But Wine tries to mmap this range (on Mac OSX at least) I was wondering why this is? Should this range just be left as it is? -- is there a reason to mmap this range? Any ideas? for reference -- this mmap is spurred from libs/wine/mmap.c:356 (mmap_init) - Nick

winbench '96 (and '97)
by Dan Kegel 01 Jan '07

01 Jan '07

After trying out Winbench '99 without too much success, (http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2006-December/052818.html), I managed to buy a copy of Winbench '96 on ebay for $3 or so. It seems a little closer to running -- the things that stop it appear to be more garden variety problems, not whacky COM stuff. While there aren't any more copies on ebay, I discovered that searching http://froogle.com for winbench found three books that come with a copy of the tool: "Using Windows 95 : Platinum Edition" (0789707977) comes with Winbench '96 "Optimizing Windows 95 & Windows NT 4.0" ( 0789708418) comes with Winbench '97 "Tom's Hardware Guide" (0789716860) comes with an unspecified version, maybe '99 (which is downloadable anyway, so maybe that's not so interesting). I guess I'll pick up a copy of that one that comes with Winbench '97 just for completeness... - Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv
