there is another file (except system/rules.inc) which contain CFLAGS?

sorry for the long delay. yes there are other files containing CFLAGS. these are files needed when you try to build the libs and apps. you can find them in include/scripts.

As for the -fno-stack-protector flag, we will add it to the detection flags. Thx

We have just released a new developer snapshot. This version fixes a lot of drawing bugs, wrong sizes and most of the crashes occurred during testing. Even some new applications are available and the existing apps have been extended. You can grab the new boot cd linked at the news entry at www.tabos.org

Thanks for testing

Sorry if I'm annoying you, but I can't compile TabOS for the same reason.
Now only USB driver seems to not compile:

make[1]: *** [all] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

Can you resolve this?

Hello I tried your os in vmware. The gui froze and ran one of my cores to 100% cpu usage on boot, but the cli version worked very well. Attached is image of gui ( not sure it will help any )

Just had some time to checkout the svn code and add the support for gcc with stack-protector flag. you can update the sources now.

@blound: thanks for reporting the vmware bug. i discovered the same 100% issue with VirtualBox, this is very strange as qemu do not have this bug. Everything is fine and fast. I'll add it to the TODO list; and of course the gui problem.

I have a similar problem with my real PC. I have a NVIDIA GeForce 6600.

I have another problem in compiling.
I can't make the bootable cd. There isn't the node bootcd/ and if I create a directory bootcd there is another error: there isn't the stage2 eltorito.

Just added a document BootCD in Documentations which should guide through the bootcd creation. At the moment i requires alot of manual stuff and should be done via a script later on....
There is also a new bootcd image which fixes the vmware problem, and should work on your nvidia card aswell.
Thanks for pointing out those problems.

Well, it is time for a new image release.
New features: ACPI support, initial i855 support, fix ocean timer bug, new widgets, fix pci bridge bug, usb hid autodetection, event notification and pty support.
The download link is included in the news entry on www.tabos.org .

Thanks a lot for testing

the screenshot is definitely cool.

I call that a huge achievement.

Jeko · Post by **Jeko** » Thu Mar 20, 2008 10:47 am

Very cool!

I will test it in my PC!

Impressive screenshots. Looks very nice.

I'll download it and test it later.

I tested it on 2 computers and it works ,but reponse time is a bit slow and there are not help files.

@octavio: can you please be a bit more precise. where does it behave slow?
