The old VBox port from year 2008 contains the code for capturing the keyboard via a keyboard hook DLL. It intercept all keyboard input including special keys and modifiers, hotkeys etc. Here I attached the patch for a Makefile to build a VBoxHlp.dll -- a helper DLL which contains a keyboard hook. The work remained is to refactor the keyboard code to different source files and classes. This is needed because the source code structure is changed in the upstream. Without this code, the Qt frontend may block PM on waiting the input events. It can be used though, if start the frontend like this:

VirtualBox.exe --startvm winxp

Then the selector window will be not running and no communication between them and the VM window. Also, the user experience is even better if you install the VBox additions and use mouse integration (see #29).

Some parts of VBox code (like src/VBox/Devices/Storage/DrvVD.cpp)require the AIO API, either, win32-like or posix-like. This API makes possible asynchronous I/O requests put in queue, without immediately blocking and getting status. Without these API's, SATA/SCSI/SAS won't work. We have no such API's on OS/2, so we need to emulate them somehow. For UNIX/Linux, there exists libAIO -- maybe, we could take this as a base.

Hi, I'm getting this pthread error when I try to compile, Hopefully you can figure out what my problem is from the info following below.

[E:\5.0.6Netlabs]ash sh: can't access tty; job control turned off # export WATCOM=E:/WATCOM # export PATH_SDK_LIBSDL=E:/Tools/os2.x86/libsdl/SDL # # ./configure --with-ow-dir=$WATCOM --enable-vnc --disable-docs Checking for environment: Determined build machine: os2.x86, target machine: os2 .x86, OK.

} using the following command line: g++ -Zomf -g -O -Wall -o E:/5.0.6Netlabs/.tmp_out E:/5.0.6Netlabs/.tmp_src.cc "-lpthread" ilink.exe: No such file or directory

Something is screwed up, I don't think ./configure needs ilink.exe! Have I left something out? I preformed the entire Development Setup as specified using YUM (pthread & pthread.devel included).

Here's the portion of configure that looks like possibly is causing the problem?

YASM="yasm" IASL="iasl" XSLTPROC="xsltproc" GENISOIMAGE="genisoimage" MKISOFS="mkisofs" INCCRYPTO="" LIBCRYPTO="-lssl -lcrypto" LIBPTHREAD="-lpthread" LIBCAP="-lcap" GSOAP=""

Also, I don't understand the “grep: invalid back reference “ statement in the Start-up script, could this be causing my problem?

Thanks for any ideas dickk
