Stanislav

meh, I just barely compiled the latest CVS yesterday haha.

At least I get to see my reported fixes in 2.4.1. =)
btw, kudos to "sshwarts" as he's fixed both the bug reports within a day or two perfectly. I just barely got a sourceforge account so I couldn't thank him or anything.

I'm thinking about getting some CVS rights and submitting my own patches (as I'm sure I'll find some more bugs along the road). Anyways, Great job guys!

Stanislav = stlw = sshwarts

I've got a bug in the BIOS that I'll be passing on, myself. And Stanislav wanted some mods to the Page Table code in the GUI -- so I'll look at a patch for that while I'm at it.

And I've got to see how you can have deadlock issues in singletasking code, too!
