Subject: [Qemu-devel] Using "invisible wall" patch to produce 0.8.2?
Date: Thu, 15 Jun 2006 22:04:26 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.WNT.4.64.0606160752020.2884@med> (raw)

Following recent discussion of the "invisible wall" patch...would the 
developers consider quickly releasing a 0.8.2 version which contained 
only this change from 0.8.1?

I can't help but think that many potential new adopters of QEMU might be 
put off for ever by this problem -- as Julian Seward pointed out, QEMU is 
effectively unusable without the patch, but seems to work perfectly well 
once it is applied.

Call it a "customer-facing improvement" :-)

(I didn't realise just how often one needs to sweep the mouse to the edge 
or into a corner of the screen when using Windows, though it stands to 
reason when you think where the [Start] menu is, and where the principal 
window controls are when a program is maximised. It does give an entirely 
false but bad impression of the rest of QEMU that this important activity 
seems to be impossible.)
