I’m not having much luck at all installing QNX.
So far I’ve tried to install QNX 6.0.1 on the five machines:
- Home generic
- Couldn’t see the CD (Linux and Windows can).
OK so the CD was a Slave without a Master,
but I had to dismantle the PC to get QNX running.
- Dell
- Mouse doesn’t work at all. Neither do most of
the “keyboard shortcuts” when you need them.
- Gateway
- Mouse moves at about 10mm/MINUTE maximum.
- Another Generic
- QNX freezes completely on some screen operations,
like the “Introduction” window and the “Help
Update” window and just moving windows around.
This is an S3 card running the SVGA drivers.
- Another Generic
- Telnet and Rlogin don’t work (TCP Checksum errors).
I’m sure it’s not a bad OS if it would just condescend
to install and run on something…
OK, so I’ve given the Gateway a decent mouse and it
is now running, except that the pkg-installer core-dumps
whenever I try to install packages from developer.qnx.com.
