Years have passed and the urge to store settings in .ini file have risen again.
I propose to commit a new program that loads settings from .ini and applies them to kernel at launch.
This will replace setup application and setup.dat
There is no gui, but settings can be easily changed with any text editor. If somebody feels the urge, they can still write a GUI.
system.ini would look like this:
Code: Select all
[system]
skin= ; for example: /sys/default.skn
volume=10
language=en ; Use ISO 639-1 language codes
keyboard=us ; Use ISO 3166-1 country codes
speaker=on
[mouse]
speed=2
delay=10
[low-level] ; Low level access for applications
PCI=on
LBA=off

It spreads, like a plague, consuming everything on it's pass...
But I personally, have thirst to get rid of that annoying image, to just put kernel on disk or some folder.

What does this have to do with my proposal? Do you agree, disagree or just don't care?

I wander, can I set the 1680x1050 video mode through "vbemode" setting? I did not manage to load KOS with extended primary loader, so maybe this will work?

Current idea is just to set all personal configuration into single ini file that can be easily changed by any program: when you set desktop image, change skin, volume, mouse settings, etc - all this points will be saved into ini file and loaded at system start-up.
I think that is very good undertaking.

... yes, it should have been renamed to "Settings", "Setup" is totally misleading.
Is it so bad, that can not be upgraded?

То, о чем я давно мечтал. Не хватает еще настройки для скина и обоев.
Запилил сохранение и загрузку настроек мыши через system.ini

Вынос настройки языка в INI файл сейчас работает не верно.
По-умолчанию пункт language=en нужно удалить из SYSTEM.INI,
в этом случае при запуске SETUP, он должен браться из сисфункции 26.5.
Сейчас же получается нужно дублировать SYSTEM.INI для каждого языка в папке svn://data/, зачем, если ядро и так компилируется с определенным языком.
Из-за этого уже непрвильный язык отображается в программе DRVINST (я потратил какое-то время, чтобы понять в чем проблема).

Напоминаю про баг выше, его нужно исправить.

Leency,
I fixed this in the kernel,
r7601.
Remove 'language=en' from
system.ini if my fix did what you asked for.
