  1. Re:I love BeOS on Practical File System Design with the Be File System · · Score: 1

    First, I would download BeOS Max

    You may need to get the latest driver for your video card Nvidia or ATI

    After you do that, just go to "start" --> Preferences --> Display to change your graphics settings.

    I would also upgrade your sound card driver if you have a AC-97 Intel AMD

    BeOS has a built in E-mail system, the e-mail is saved as a attributed file in /boot/home/mail/in To configure, just go to the "start" menu --> Preferences --> e-mail you will notice a new icon next to the clock (looks like a US mailbox) you can access your e-mail from there.

    After setting it up download BeShare for all of your support needs (there are lots of files there as well)

    I would get the bleeding edge version of Firefox for a web browser

    if you are feeling adventureous, try finding and installing Bone7a (look for bone7a_install.zip on google or b7a.zip on beshare). This is a more stable network stack integrated into the BeOS Kernel.

    If BeOS isn't your thing, Windows or Linux are always out there.
