The Haiku operating system

Augustin Cavalier 1705e9761a kernel/x86: Don't disable the CPUID/MSR TSC frequency read on hypervisor. It was disabled when adding the hypervisor CPUID leaf reading to the bootloader, but that's not really necessary. This way, if a hypervisor does not provide that CPUID leaf but does provide the value in the standard CPUID or MSR, we will still read it correctly anyway.		2024-09-10 17:07:10 -04:00

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
Clean, clear, concise code.
Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.

Contributing

Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!

Contributing code
