Count me in
I'm very interested in this, at last an alternative OS to play games :clap: :banana: :banana: :banana:
I'd like to give this a shot. nn this OS has no problem with dual CPU rigs does it?
as mentioned in the thread, no it works fine with 4 seperate cpus and higher
I'd like to test this system out. My system is as in my sig. Where do I go from here?
Thanks.
Hello. I would like to help out with the betatesting of this alternative OS. I can't give much feedback about some kind of software, like firewalls or anivirus, but I can about many others.
Will you eventually need to test certain specific software/hardware with it? I think it would be good doing so.
Anyway, count me in as a betatester. :)
You wait till nn_step releases the beta to usQuote:

I dreamt about XSOS V3.0 last night :eek:
Cant wait till its torturing at least one of my rigs :woot:
Thanks. I'm patient. The built-in multi-core support sounds very interesting.Quote:

I'm a programmer not Jesus, One Should not attempt to break up a thread without knowing exactly how and why it works. And to attempt to have an algorithm do that in brute force is risky and rather stupid.Quote:

I'm not a programmer. Just trying to get my head around it, that's all.
I just got qemu working so i would like to be in on this to:)
id be up to tryin this out, i got a few rigs i could try it on, let me kno when its ready. thanx gonna try v2.0 asap just to get an idead what im workin with.
if is still available for signing for beta testing... count me in
i would like to be in
i'd like to jump in on this and see how well it does:D
I'm intrested on how my 8800GTS is going to do DX10 without any drivers from NVIDIA...

- If i remember correctly, the LINE count of Windows 2000 source code was near 20 million. Linux 2.4 kernel was 4 million. It was just the base KERNEL.
- You responded that it is based on a hybrid, similar to minix. IIRC, minix was micro-kernel architechture based. Not hybrid. Atleast thats what the author said.
- From the screenshots you have posted thus far, it seems stuff like Management console is also available. How is this possible? Did you write up a emulator for Windows executables? Did you rewrite the kernel. Both a extremely optimistic guesses as it requires quites a considerable bit of time and effort to pull of such a thing.
- Driver support?
Please take a bit of time to answer these question, am sure it will clear lots of confusion.

more screenshots?
im putting bets down on virtualization technology. i was talking to somebody @ Microsoft and he told me that ati/nvidia drivers on vista are much better optimized, so far...
i would love to give this a shot, im currently building a small form factor athlon xp system i could test it out on, that would be fantastic!
1) I know, what is your point? We have the man power, skill and talent, I truely believe our limits are only those of our budget and hardware supplies.Quote:

3) no emulation required, I was crazy enough to work Win32 into the API
4) we are working on Driver support and the required "Conversations" that come with it
Dear NN- Having really enjoyed XSOS v2.0, I'm having xtreme difficulty waiting for XSOS v3.0!
Please allow me the pleasure of beta-testing XSOS v3.0.
(sorry to beg so soon...have been lurking these forums a long time! I would like to help with bug reports)
Thank you!
NN, does having a unix based hybrid kernel do anything in terms of stability, like in terms of BSODing and so on. Since ReactOS used a hybrid kernel (obviously not the same) but still suffered from the issue.
I want your mad skills to flow into me...
