I’m currently running Haiku 64bit on a laptop of 2012 vintage. I wonder though whether Haiku would have any problems running on more recent hardware. Is there perhaps a list of hardware which is compatible with Haiku 64bit?
I’m thinking that perhaps in a year’s time when windows 10 is near its end-of-life there’d a a lot of bargain PCs to be snapped up from corporations finally upgrading to windows 11 and throwing out all their windows 10 machines?
From experience, most work, like a problem can be networking, however most work.
Yup My main machine is an i7, but Haiku can do much more …
I run on it on a Ryzen 2600X with an RTX 2080 - 4k resolution is totally fine, onboard network works and audio too. Unfortunately for me I use HDMI audio so I don’t get sound in Haiku but it runs beautifully other than that!
Cool! So HDMI is not implemented in Haiku at the moment? I’ve been trying to get zoom or skype to work on my Thinkpad x230 + Haiku 64 bit tonight, but so far I’ve not had any luck with getting either Skype web or zoom web to recognise input from my USB condenser microphone. Funny that because I was able to make a recording on Haiku’s native sound recorder app. I guess there’s a difference between an app running on the OS and an app running in a browser running on the OS.
HDMI networking and audio isn’t from my knowledge. A HDMI screen will work however.
Are you using WebPositive for this? Try Gnome Web (aka Epiphany) or Falkon. Also, Firefox is on its way!
Yeah sorry, as Cell says - HDMI screen is fine, but you can’t get other services over HDMI.
I tried Gnome Web, Falkon, as well as WebPositive. Sites like Zoom and Skype sometimes would even not load in these browsers. Even when they did, some parts of the site would not load (eg. the toggle to select the sound input in Skype for instance) meaning it was impossible to select the microphone. I will have another try when Firefox is ready!
No.
It doesn’t run.
It sprints.
