I’ve made a CLICKER for my OS!!!
Then you need to install some filesystem tools, qemu, toolchain and nasm and launch Macabuilder executable from the root project directory. I updated [build instructions](https://github.com/MacaronOS/Macaron) and now it's less confusing.

C++ override not working?
The code is here: https://github.com/maxtyson123/max-os/ and I was wondering if anyone would be able to explain to me why this is occuring?

Working implementations of NVIDIA graphics drivers?
I have just finished switching from normal VGA to VESA for my OS MaxOS. And although this will be far away in the future, I do hope to not only have a 1080p display but also working on the hardware of my main machine. So I began looking at the wiki and found the https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/ project that aims to implement open-source NVIDIA drivers and was wondering if there were any hobby OSes that you know of that have successfully implemented a similar sort of thing?

Is blocking the same as waiting?
So I’ve been working on networking in my operating system (https://github.com/maxtyson123/max-os) and have been wondering how I would communicate with the Ethernet driver from user space, e.g call the send funct.

Virtual Machines Acting Weird?
(If anyone wants to replicate then here is the repo: https://github.com/maxtyson123/max-os, use make setupQ and make runQ to use QEMU, or just use make to run compile iso and then you can load it into a VM)

A good hobby OS?
You could check out mine. Repo just doesn’t have the sync tools.

Wrote my own os, would porting a c lib work with c++ progs
I’ve been writing my own os (GitHub Repo) in c++ and now I want to port a standard library. I plan to implement the linkage and such when the time comes but am just wondering weather a c lib would work for a c++ program. This is becuase I have found a few easily portable c libs. If this isn’t so then I will write my own

Stack Register EBX not returning set value
I return esp in the function doHandleInterrupt() and in an unpublished version this gets set to a CPU stack sort of struct and I force ebx to be 1 but it doesnt work?
