Can you send your patch to Basilisk-devel list, so we can discuss it there? A few syntactic comments I off the top of my head: Please don't reformat code where you don't need to (like here): - struct sk_buff *lskb = skb_copy(skb, GFP_ATOMIC); + struct sk_buff *lskb; + lskb = skb_copy(skb, GFP_ATOMIC...

@ Myrd I wonder if it would be better to have SheepShaverLauncher and SheepShaver as two separate applications, with no SheepShaver executable inside the Launcher application. Now, launching a VM from the Launcher launches the SheepShaver executable inside the Launcher. That is confusing for the us...

Can you try older builds of SheepShaver to figure out if it's indeed changes to SheepShaver that are causing this?

What keys are being pressed would be pretty simple to detect - because it's SheepShaver that first gets the key events from the host OS, and then forwards them to the guest OS. What files are being opened would be harder - since (except for the shared folder), afaik SheepShaver doesn't know about th...

I do not see changed default preferences. It seems you're right. I thought just changing the defaults in the GUI would do it - but it turns out it takes the default preferences that SheepShaver sets - which are the ones you see. So should I change those defaults to make them better... or add some s...

- The VM is now a normal folder, not a clickable bundle anymore. Is that intentional? Maybe to allow browsing inside the folder? You might have removed your standalone SheepShaver instance that recognizes the .sheepvm files as bundles. The launcher doesn't yet do this - so just having the launcher ...

In this version, the main changes are the re-addition of the Dynamic refresh rate, better default preferences, a browse button for the keycodes file, and having the VM list window re-open on a click on the Dock.

SheepShaver Launcher

I have done some more work to expand this feature, and the result is a SheepShaver Launcher application for Mac OS X. It's basically a manager application for SheepShaver virtual machines (.sheepvm bundles). It displays them in a list, and lets you edit the settings of a specific one (i.e. vm prefs)...

I'm thinking that a better fix would be to change the Basilisk II code so that when it gets a bad result from the Mach memory allocation, it sets errno. Then the higher level code can go back to the way it was before, and it will work for both OS X and Linux. I think that's an acceptable solution. ...

New Feature: Self-contained .sheepvm bundles

I've committed a new feature to SheepShaver CVS. Currently, it is for Mac OS X and Unix only. The idea is to allow for self-contained SheepShaver VMs, in a similar fashion to, for example, VMWare Fusion VMs. The system is quite simple. If you create a folder with a .sheepvm extension, and put into i...

Another alternative is to copy InterfaceLib from a 9.1 system into 9.0.4. It may destroy your 9.0.4 install, or it may solve the problem - so backup first.

Yeah, just because something is available for free download somewhere, doesn't give you the right to distribute it in some modified form just because you can.
