    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?
    1 project | /r/osdev | 19 Oct 2023
    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?
    1 project | /r/osdev | 13 Dec 2022
    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?
    1 project | /r/osdev | 24 Nov 2022
    (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?
    2 projects | /r/osdev | 19 Nov 2022
    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
    1 project | /r/Cplusplus | 18 Nov 2022
    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
    2 projects | /r/osdev | 16 Nov 2022
    I return esp in the function doHandleInterrupt() and in an unpublished version this gets set to a CPU stack sort of struct and I force ebx to be 1 but it doesnt work?
  • Return value from system call?
    1 project | /r/osdev | 15 Nov 2022
    MY current implementation (MaxOS) can receive system calls and get the values from the eax, abx registers etc.

    I've been looking a lot at Patrick Doane's OS https://github.com/pdoane/osdev lately. They got a triangle rendering with their own Intel HD Graphics driver.
