maybe in early BeOS versions but, BeOS R5 especially with the BONE updates had a fairly decent POSIX compatibility for the time. If you do "ls /" you can see immediatly BeOS has so…

with BeOS you have instant indexed search, with no index server, and with atomic instant updates (e.g. the same moment you modify a file, the search results update) this is yet to …

it's like a port of Haiku on top of the linux kernel roughly

BTW because that would not solve any problem for us, the technique you're linking can be useful only if what you want to achieve is binary compatibility otherwise it's useless. Tha…

the cli stuff in Vitruvian are exactly the same you'd get on a debian install. So it'd just work out of the box on our OS.

Thank you everyone for commenting! We are going to pubblish small articles on the website to clarify some of the common questions that are popping around. We will also do our best …

We have the same IPC that BeOS/Haiku has so it'd run natively, but actually Vitruvian will provide a new modern media framework that is compatible with the old media kit through an…

I won't say you're wrong because you aren't, in fact the system works very well also with non-rt kernels. But the graphical stack is not really designed like the average linux stac…

it's the real app_server running :) so you have everything you'd expect

Yes the UX is virtually the same
