Oh my - just got a reson to install QNX again
Looking quite nice, *very* BeOS'ish (good thing IMO).

Will the SDK carry a pricetag? Fri, 25 Apr 2003 10:23:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? It looks very heavily influences by the BeAPI - which is good, I was disapointed to learn that QNX & Photon only had a C API.

i successfully installed QNX 6.2.1 NC yesterday and will give it a try during the next weeks. Fri, 25 Apr 2003 12:57:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? NICE work! It has a lovely, familiar feel...

Almost makes me want to install QNX 6 again... except for the lack of hardware 3D support, and (maybe?) poor support for Ultra ATA modes...

My Vodoo3 works great...but maybe its only using it for 2d Fri, 25 Apr 2003 14:19:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? If i remember correctly Glide cards are the only ones with proper 3D support, so it's very possible that you actually DO have 3D supported. But in general, QNX does have poor hardware 3D support, that doesnt bother me though, I really dont do anything that requires 3D in any OS.

QNX is very nice in general, has its quirks, but it really is fun to play around with. I liked the IDE that shipped with 6.2, reminded me of my VB days (in an oddly good way).

They could be back in the game. It would be a perfect replacement for their current OS. There is no reason why Microsoft should be the only one with the "Freedom to Inovate".

It looked nice but... No way to use Icons or such, is it still that way? Anyone know if QNX supports cd burning yet? Fri, 25 Apr 2003 17:52:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? There is a workaround for icons on the desktop, which is what I believe you're referring to (get on irc.qnxzone.com and ask around).

Also, there is a beta of cd-burning software using cdrecord. One developer is working on a GUI for cdrecord. Soon it'll be supported fairly nicely.
