Assembly Demo
At the moment, I’m at the beginning of gathering the required programming and technical knowledge to start writing my own OS. I’ve been messing around with assembly, and now I have a very-very-and I mean VERY simple screenshot to show you:
What do we see here?
The video mode has been switched to VGA.
We’ve printed the string [...]

For some time now, I have been having trouble with deleting folders that contain a lot and – I mean a _lot_ – of files. Such folders are very hard to remove either with Windows Explorer or Total Commander.
The reason for that is unknown to me. I guessing it has something to do with reading [...]

2GB
… of RAM. As of some time today, there is 2GB of RAM in my laptop. That’s twice that size than before. As I expected, boot time and the overall performance did not improve that much. On the other hand startup time for VS2010, Photoshop and the like did in fact improve a lot.
The in-depth [...]

The full title should be First Impressions on Visual Studio 2010 Team Suite Beta 1 – Part I. For obvious reasons (khm, it wouldn’t fit) I truncated it. Part I refers to the fact that this really is a first impressions review. I installed it, and now I share what I’ve noticed when I first [...]

Where to begin?
Yep, that’s the big question. I’ve finally decided that I’m going to have a go at operating system programming again. I’ve been reading about kernels, osdev concepts, protected mode, and similar stuff lately. I’ve found that by taking small and carefully designed steps from time to time, I can actually make something happen.
Hence the question [...]

Display problems
Some time ago I wrote a post about the problems that have arisen with my old desktop PC. I doubt that you’d remember, but the two problems is question were the wrong RAM modules and the strange lines running through the screen.
These problems render the rig completely useless, and I have just figured out, that [...]

Strange
The weirdest things happen to computers around me. Today I’m talking about my own desktop.
After about two years of sleeping, the sleeping beauty has awaken. After – it seems – an eternity, I have finally succeeded in gathering all the components of my desktop computer together, and armed with a new 21.5 inch widescreen LCD [...]

Vihar előtti csend
Lassan de biztosan közeleg a nyugodt semmittevés vége, hétfőn újra indul a show. Másnéven az egyetem, a 6. félév.
Ezt az utolsó néhány napot – egyszerűen fogalmazva – bütyköléssel töltöttem. Rendszereztem a CD-imet, az adataimat még nem, Mac OS X-et telepítettem, a jövő félévre vonatkozó teendőimet vettem számításba és egyéb ilyesmi dolgok. Most meg Vista installer [...]

Chrome 2.0.158.0 alpha
Ha a címben jelzettnél alacsonyabb a verziószám ne frissítsetek erre, mert egy merő bug az egész.
upd.: Van új, a 159-es. A bug ebben is benne van, de lényegesen kevesebbszer. Viszont jött más. Nem érdemes.

Nem is olyan rég, t’án egy hete jelent meg a Chrome böngésző 2.0-ás változatának alpha/beta/isten ökre verziója. Mindigis lelkes használója voltam a non-featur-complete illetve kifejezetten instabil fejlesztői verzióknak. A Firefox 3 fejlesztői verzióját majd’ fél évig használtam, a megjelenés előtt.
Minefieldnek hívták és többször fagyott, mint a Win98. Amikor azonban nem fagyott, álom gyors volt. Kevés [...]
