I just checked TC on Lenovo IdeaPad 5i 15. The following are detected and working: graphics, sound, Wi-Fi. Surprisingly, the Haiku doesn’t recognize the touchpad. I’ve never tested it under Haiku on this hardware, so I don’t know if it was ever recognized. What data with syslog do I need, and where can I find it in Haiku, to get information about the touchpad for the bug tracker?
Hello!
Converted both my Haiku nightlies to r1beta6: an Intel Ivy Bridge 64bits desktop and an Intel Atom 32bits netbook.
The desktop is working fine, and so is the netbook, but when changing the screen brightness control on the last one, setting all the way to the minimum resulted in a persistent black screen… Did boot it with fail-safe graphics (VESA, no brightness control), but don’t know how or where to change it back to non-zero brightness…
You could try either moving/renaming /boot/home/config/settings/system/app_server/workspaces, or attempt to edit it with Kottan (pkgman install kottan).
I see a brightness field in that settings file, under workspace/screen/ (you get one entry per workspace).
Can someone please give an answer to this?

and
> pkgman add-repo https://eu.hpkg.haiku-os.org/haikuports/r1beta6/x86_64/current
Worked for me just now (the one for HaikuPorts was giving “I/O Error”, as I had the latter still pointing to r1beta5 instead of master.

So I presume I remove r1beta5 repos before adding those, then do a full-sync?
EDIT: Ahh, I see the old ones where automagically disabled, when I added the new ones.
I’m having issues instaling this on my Dell Lattitude 5520 (4k screen varient with iGPU and dedicated Geforce MX450. GIves me loads of graphical errors and fails to properly render the installer.
Machine works fine under various linuxes but I’ve had nothing but difficulty installing Haiku on it unforunately. even older revisions don’t work. Any advice? I’d love to get R1/beta6 to work on this.
