#MAME 0.285 compiles on #HaikuOS after adding a small upstream patch (a missing #include).
If you're struggling to compile the latest version of MAME (I bet #FreeBSD and #NetBSD probably have the same issue), give this a go: https://github.com/mamedev/mame/commit/ffde4d3920ae99d2730db83982ffa9f8fbd8abd2
Anyway, there's a PR on HaikuPorts for the update, so it should be with you lovely people in the next few days.

My Ubuntu Summit talk is up! Where I talk about:
1. How Desktop UX is effectively dead
2. Why I hate the term UX/UI with the heat of 1000 suns
3. How OSS can actually innovate in #ux
🍂 Jenny’s Daily Drivers: Haiku R1/beta5 // Hackaday
https://hackaday.com/2025/12/11/jennys-daily-drivers-haiku-r1-beta5/
Krita 5.2.14 released for Haiku 64bit, this is a bugfix release, read all about it at:
I can install Haiku (r1beta5-x86_64) in a bhyve VM on FreeBSD but the installed OS won’t boot.
I use vm-bhyve, and the config file haiku/haiku.conf looks like this:
loader="uefi"
cpu="2"
memory="1G"
graphics="yes"
graphics_port="5998"
graphics_res="1280x1024"
xhci_mouse="yes"
network0_type="virtio-net"
network0_switch="interne"
disk0_type="virtio-blk"
#disk0_type="nvme"
disk0_name="disk0.img"
uuid="blah-blah"
network0_mac="blah"
I tried both virtio-blk and nvme as disk type, no luck.
The boot error with virtio-blk is:
BdsDxe: failed to load Boot0001 "UEFI Misc Device" from PciRoot (0x0) /Pci (0×4,0x0): Not Found
Any idea?

Dang, is this old laptop slow. The OS is fast but the browser is as slow as a modern browser.

Do I know someone using #HaikuOS as their primary OS? Are then any real problems? (So, "bigger than with BSDs")

🔮 The Great Illusion: When We Believed BeOS Would Save the World (And Maybe It Was Right) – Desktop On Fire!
｢ Imagine: instead of OS X based on NeXTSTEP, we would have had an Apple system based on BeOS. No decades-old Unix cruft, no Mach kernel heavy as an elephant, but an operating system born for multimedia, elegant as a Lamborghini and fast as… well, as a Lamborghini ｣
behold, my #haiku #haikuos panasonic let’s note. I call it Haikubook. I bought this little notebook that is not made anymore from my first salary here in #japan. It is not super powerful but been my workhorse for couple of years. Recently I sold/donated most of my useless modern hardware but kept this and made it my bare metal Haiku machine. It is surprising how well Haiku runs on it, incl. touchscreen and wifi card.
✅ The BeOS file system, an OS geek retrospective
｢ One of BFS's most important and widely touted features is its support for extended attributes. An example of the importance of attributes is illustrated with an example of MP3 files. Information fields important to an MP3 file would be: song title, band, album, release date, encoding rate, length, number of times played ｣
