The post you referred to contains links to 2 different programs. Which one did you attempted to build?

I am getting this :

Youā€™ll want to use preformated text for this kind of things, so the forum doesnā€™t eat the < > stuff as HTML.

As I said, itā€™s snprintf it wants, and gcc even tells you which header to use. Possibly the x86_64 headers donā€™t self-include in the same way as on 32bitā€¦ Or maybe the code was only ever tested with GCC2 which ships different headers.

Good day,

looks like this is not solved yet :disappointed_relieved:

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnā€™t. Actually as reported in the ticket, after some time without switching to Haiku, Haiku canā€™t detect the availability of the usb devices. Something is still going on there, with the switch connected to the USB 2.0 port.

Addin #include <stdio.h> somewhere in top of haiku-ubarrier.cpp will make it to buildā€¦

Good day,

As of lately, this issue seems to have improved. Iā€™ve been all this afternoon switching from Windows to Haiku and viceversa and it ā€œseems fineā€. I quote this because of this pics:

screenshot2

So, what looks like it is happening now, is that each time I switch from Windows to Haiku, Haiku adds several new keyboards and several new mouses. Meaning that, the more I switch, the more input devices appear on the list. This only happens in the Input preferences, as listusb command spits what it should, only the devices connected to USB.

Looks like instead of detecting the same devices over and over, Input preferences treats devices as new ones each time the KM switch activates the Haiku pc. :scream:

Iā€™ll add this to the ticket (https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/11793).

RR
