As near as I can tell, they haven't done a thing, and weren't the slightest bit interested in the bug report.
They don't even seem to keep track of reported bugs. If a developer happens to see a bug report about something he worked on, he might check into it. But otherwise it gets forgotten in a day or two. I'd think that the bug tracker at Savanah would be very useful for a project, but apparently it doesn't get used. I don't think any of the devlopers or Fabrice have even suggested it get used to track bugs. Savanah has a number of useful tools.... bug tracking, file download areas (for executables, etc.), task manager. Even a patch manager, so people can submit patches easily. Lots of things to help developers and users alike. But none of that gets used. Everything gets done though a mailing list, where it's easy to forget about stuff. (Or in my case, not even get the message, due to spam filtering.) FreeDOS mouse, various cd changing bugs, and qemu-img raw with 2g+ images are three other significant items that have never been fixed. Plus there are times when qemu effects the host's mouse, even after qemu shuts down. (Might be a Windows / SDL problem. Dunno.) One minor one (but relatively easy to work on) is spaces in filenames. Qemu can't do it in the monitor. Can make it impossible to change floppies or cd's, some times. I'm not even sure if anybody has investigated the problems. If a developer has a problem, then they can check into it themselves, of course. All us users can do is make a report and sit back and wait to see if anything happens. Sometimes it can be a long wait. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Wiegley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <qemu-devel@nongnu.org> Sent: Monday, June 13, 2005 12:49 PM Subject: [Qemu-devel] Norton Ghost crashes with page fault for me too. >I noticed that one other person a long time back had > this same problem. > > http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2005-02/msg00345.html > > Basically, when I boot from an original boot/rescue disk created by > Norton Ghost 2003 I also get: > > Microsoft (R) Mouse Driver Version 8.20 > Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp. 1983-1992 > Copyright (C) IBM Corp. 1992-1993 > Mouse Driver Installed > Loading... > Page Fault cr2=0fffbbb0 at eip-214; flags=3283 > eax=ffffab00 ebx=1a001000 ecx=00000004 edx=ffffbbb0 esi=00281cb1 > edi=00001031 > ebp=ffffab7f esp=00003ffc cs=af ds=b7 es=b7 fs=a7 gs=0 ss=a7 error=0004 > A:\GHOST> > > Which is exactly the same as the original author. > > I was wondering if anybody fixed it and if so how? > > -- > Jeff Wiegley, PhD http://www.csun.edu/~jeffw > Computer Science Assistant Professor EA1407 Engineering Addition > California State University Northridge email [EMAIL PROTECTED] > 18111 Nordhoff Street office phone 818.677.3887 > Northridge CA 91330-8281 CS Dept. phone 818.677.3398 > USA (ignore:cea2d3a38843531c7def1deff59114de) > > > _______________________________________________ > Qemu-devel mailing list > Qemu-devel@nongnu.org > http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
