Programming / Re: os4: KEE update notification

That will be the moment in time when I will finally pull the plug on OS/2.
Lars, we respect you and your work on USB stack and other projects.
Sorry, for negative emotions which we bring you.
If you cannot install a standard eCS or AN Installation inside a virtual machine then that's it for me.
That's not frustration. That's common sense.
New KEE in OS/4 kernel is aimed to help a Host System, not a Guest System and thus it will in no way influence the installation of the standard eCS or AN inside a VM.
Ok, here is something constructive: don't put these routines in the kernel, put it in ACPI.PSD and ACPI.SYS (the ACPI driver from the OS4 team) respectively.
Then have the 2 parties agree on a common Interface.
Unfortunately it is impossible to properly provide such service within PSD or some other way, it is possible to do only in the kernel by adding new KEE (by the way, ACPI itself has absolutely no connection with the matter).
