Hello everyone. I have a question. Is the GTX 460 1GB supported by Haiku? I am asking since I have a computer with that GPU. Haiku runs great on it, just the driver is a generic one. Is there a driver for the GTX 460? If yes, that would be cool. The monitor is a 1400x900 monitor, yet Haiku doesn’t want to go above 1200x800 resolution on this system for some reason.
There’s currently no support for “newer” nVidia cards (newer than GeForce FX/PCX 7xxx/Go at least 
).
As in… 1200x800 is the maximum you see available on the Screen preference app? Or you see higher resolutions, but they don’t work?
If the the former… You may try enabling bios_patching for the VESA driver to see if that allows to use higher resolutions, but it also might make things worse, so be prepared to disable it again if you try.
Add a bios_patching true line in the file /boot/home/config/settings/kernel/drivers/vesa, and reboot. See if the screen preflet show new resolutions, and try those. If it works, great! OTOH… If things go wrong, force 1200x800 resolution from the boot menu, and remove that line once you boot up.
The 1200x800 is the maximal resolution that I see in the app. I will try the modification, but, to not accidentally brick my install, I will make a Haiku USB disk and try it on there
