I mean the simple things. Let’s say I want to setup my 2 dual-DVI monitors with nvidia drivers and have my monitors run at 144 and 120hz. Or I have my wireless USB stick and want it to work properly. Also: optimized 3d drivers. Drivers for my USB printer/scanner? And so on...
- yebyen 13y agoOh, sure. I could see how a regular person would think of all those things as simple things, and why you'd see that as an obstacle to adoption or progress. I don't think we'll be seeing optimized 3D dual-link display drivers from nVidia any time soon.
- c0un7d0wn 13y agoWhat about ATI/AMD? they have oss docs and drivers.
- synchronise 13y agoIf your Wireless USB stick is supported by FreeBSD, then it will be supported by Haiku since they use the same drivers. Thanks to Gutenprint as well, Haiku now supports a wide range of printers too. It doesn't support scanners, but then again Linux doesn't really do a good job either (Anyone who has used SANE will know how unstable it is). Decent 3D monitor support is something you won't find in FOSS, at least not yet.
