Sigurd, I thought they said they were working on the wireless networking. and Louis explained why it was hard for them to nail down the drivers. I ask did you watch the same event?
Hi Eugene,
yes, I did. As far as I remember they said that they worked sometime in the past (please see all the explanations in related Video form 2017 to 2023), somewhere at the beginning they realised that it will not work the same way as with the Multimac Drivers (transform BSD Drivers) , since then there is no progress.
May be you have more informations, a Beta of a driver or some kind of, any signs of progress other than repeated announcements since 2017?
Yes, it may seem hard to you to write in that way, believe it or not, I write it without personal malice or resentment.
Fact is: ArcaOS is focussed on Industrial Users, and of course this is entirely in their hands and is legitimate.
BUT:
For years they have given the impression that they are doing something for the end user, but nothing has happened. Just look at the annonucements from 2017 till today. Only what industrial customers benefit from made it.
Things for the End User:
- a new Browser (Bitwise Works, NO spnsoring by ArcaNoae)
- Sound Drivers (Paul Smedly)
- Touch and Stylus Drivers (Wim Brul)
and others
all have been realized by others but ArcaNoae.
The annual announcements, which were of course non-binding, but still gave the wrong impression. There are no WLAN drivers, there is no German version, that is fact.
I believed in these promises for years and paid accordingly.
After 7 (!) years, to still come and say how difficult a German translation is (even though almost all tools are available in German translation) is now just ridiculous.
The community here in Germany is more or less dead.
For me ArcaOS is dead. That's just it.
Please don't take it personal, it is "Just the way it is".
