Kolibri 0530
http://www.kolibri.hut1.ru/downlo_e.htm Here possible to download the version 0530. It is last distribution kit, which i made. I shall not throw the project, but I shall not gather any more distribution kits. In it other people will be engage. Good luck. Mario79 P. S. I bring the apologies, but it still in Russian. Probably, Andrey Halyavin will translate it on English. I not have time, and unfortunately my English - no best skill.

Wow !! very nice ! They fixed mouse problem and lots more. Very stable, will start working on conversion project soon. :) Thanks Mario79 and all others that worked on this.

Thanks 8) .

Cool Thanks. :)

The following changes and fix in a kernel are made: From Mario79 1) Parallel processing of mice: PS2, COM1, COM2 2) Detection of the mouse PS2. 3) Switching FPU (coprocessor) in Protect Mode with reset. 4) Returning focal point (activation of the application) previous application at completion of the active application. 5) Change skin of the window 4 types, at loss and returning of focal point. 6) New algorithm of output of the mouse pointer. 7) The small fix From Andrey Halyavin (halyavin) 1) The error in shed.inc is corrected: a crash of a kernel at termination 2) The reallocation of interruptions IRQ to the standard circuit(scheme) is added at transition in real mode at termination. 3) Improved code of boot-up 4) The error bringing to a crash is corrected at restart of the system from memory. 5) The functions are added: 18/16 - to return a size of free memory (in a KB) 18/17 - to return a size of all memory (in a KB). 6) An error-checking of change skin at loss and returning of focal point (the variable aw_yes is transformed into the push-down parameter) 7) The strange figure of the button for buttons of bright colours is corrected 8) The size of the code of the memory manager is reduced 9) The small fix From mike.dld 1) Refinement of functions minimize, deployment and rollup of windows. Now situation of the window is remembered and in what sort you for example have minimized it in the panel, in such sort it will be restored then. 2) For usage in @Panel the functions in a kernel are added: 48/5 - to receive a working area of the screen 48/6 - to set a working area of the screen 48/7 - to receive edges(territory) skin 48/8 - to place(install) skin of the window 3) Deleting call check_window_move_request from main loop of operating system, now windows move at once. 4) New format skin of the window 4 such as - now all data skin in one file (*.skn). The output of windows with skin is accordingly changed (is used in the complex with the code Mario79 item 5). 5) The small fix From Diamond 1) New code of the load screen in real mode. Saving parameters (is supported at presence of the loader mtldr) and hot combination Ctrl + Alt + Del for reset of the computer. 2) The debugger API is added 3) The write error of files on RAM disk is corrected. 4) Correction of an error of the keyboard and PS2 of the mouse in VmWare (correction of the code Mario79 item 2) 5) Correction of an error of restart of a kernel from memory at loading from the hard disk. 6) The small fix With the applications the following finishings and corrections are made: @PANEL - Mario79, paging of the list of the applications. mike.dld, installation of a working area of the screen and correct operation at usage VRR. Andrey Halyavin (halyavin), the error which is eliminated carried on to an incorrect position of the panel after minimize and restoring by the right side button of the application. The error could be shown if the system would not limit drawing windows for limits of area of the screen. FASM - port for OS - Mario79, version 1.65.12 * Are remote: the files skin (BMP) as they now contain in *.skn the file. * Upgrade and addition of the applications MTAPPACK - Diamond, packer of executable files, only one on today working in the operating system, but on compression it is better than all others (which all varieties MXP and MXC) work under DOS -. END - - Diamond, decrease of a size of the application. PERIOD10 - Navanax and Johnny_B, periodic system Д. И. Mendeleev, great Russian chemist. The good quick reference for training in school. CALC - Heavyiron, calculator of the version 1.1 alpha. The improved design new procedure of output of the window, window types 4. VRR - mike.dld, mode change without killed of all applications and without restart of the application Launcher ICON2 - mike.dld, is modified for correct operation with application VRR, without restart of the application. DESKTOP - mike.dld, added possibility to change skin of the window ' on summer ' (with preview, without reboot of operating system). CPU - Andrey Halyavin (halyavin), correction an error of offset on one output application at each return paging of the list of the applications. FLATWAV - macgub, good demo - artful processing of a flying flag.

Rumour has it that 3Com NIC driver can crash the system? Is it really true? Is somebody among you who uses this NIC type and could confirm the problem? T.

Ooops... It seems Mario posted his translation prior to me... What's new in Kolibri 0.5.3.0 ----------------------------- 1. KERNEL Marat Zakiyanov (Mario79): 1) PS2, COM1 and COM2 mice work in parallel 2) PS2 mouse autodetect 3) Switching FPU to protected mode & resetting at booting stage 4) Returning focus to the previous window when closing a window 5) Different skins for active/nonactive windows 6) New algorythm of drawing the mouse pointer 7) ... Andrei Khalyavin (halyavin): 1) Fixed bug in shed.inc 2) Rerouting IRQs back when switching to real mode 3) Improved boot code 4) Fixed bug when rebooting the kernel from RAM 5) Added new functions: 18/16 - get amount of free physical memory available 18/17 - get amount of RAM 6) Fixed bug when activating/deactivating a window 7) Fixed drawing buttons which color is light 8) Reduced code size of the memory manager 9) ... Mikhail Semenyako (mike.dld): 1) Improved minimizing, maximazing a window 2) Added functions for @PANEL 48/5 - get work area 48/6 - set work area 48/7 - get skin margins 48/8 - set skin 3) Deleted check_window_move_request from the main OS loop. It's not needed anymore. 4) New skin format (for windows of fourth type) - skn. 5) ... diamond: 1) New boot screen Supports saving parameters (with mtldr) and Ctrl+Alt+Del 2) API debugger 3) Fixed bug in writing a file to RD 4) Fixed bugs with keyboard and PS/2 mouse (in VMWare) 5) Fixed bug in restarting the system from a hard disk 6) ... 2. APPLICATIONS a) improvments @PANEL (Mario79, mike.dld, halyavin) - many improvements FASM 1.65.12 (built by Mario79) END (diamond) - reduced code size CALC (Heavyiron) - improved look VRR (mike.dld) - changing screen mode without killing all processes ICON2 (mike.dld) - fixed to work with new VRR DESKTOP (mike.dld) - added switching skin on the fly CPU (halyavin) - fixed bug b) deleted old skin files in BMP format which is not used anymore MIDI files (due to GPL license) c) new programs MTAPPACK (diamond) - the best packer for MeOS executables, works directly under MenuetOS PERIOD10 (Navanax, Johny_B) - periodic table of elements also called Mendeleev's table FLATWAV (macgub) - a nice demo

hidnplayr If you write about a square figure originating at moving the mouse, I agree this error still completely is not corrected. In the near future code will be rewrite, with the purpose of exception of output of the mouse from MAIN OS LOOP. The mouse pointer will be output directly at output of the buffer of a video of area in which to be the cursor.

http://www.kolibri.hut1.ru/download.htm 0530 beta 2 CPUID 1.11, correction of a spelling and inaccuracies in text files hidnplayr Sorry, but i not changed network part of kernel. Don Me have asked to not gather more distribution kits, as my style of dialogue and mine of preference in colour and design result in a rage of some people. :-)

Mario79 I'm sorry to hear that. You are a great coder best wishes :)

cool! ... very good job guys. This Kolibri Version will replace the 0.5.2.0 i had in one of my pc's ... keep up the good work!

just a question, how is the EZ distro going??? There will be an "open software" meeting in my city and I wan't to show the guys this OS :)
