Shot in the dark, but does anyone here know, how to get the supplementary groups of another running process in #QNX?
I know that modern pidin can do it, so I would like to be able to replicate this. Sadly the pidin version in openqnx can't do that, so I can't look it up there and the documentation isn't helpful.
BlackBerry Ltd. reported first-quarter earnings that beat expectations, driven by strong QNX automotive software sales, prompting a 7% after-hours share surge and an upward revision to its full-year revenue guidance.

Experiences with #dreckly / #pkgsrc on obscure Unixes:
#UnixWare - bootstrap succeeded! Just needed a few simple fixes.
#OpenServer - see UnixWare.
#BSDOS - kernel panic during installation. Support incomplete.
#HPUX - kernel panic during installation.
#QNX - bootstrap success! No changes needed.
#Haiku - bootstrap failed due to open() behaviour. "Invalid argument".
If you have a shell on an #IRIX or #HPUX machine, please let me know!
Came across a website with #QNX nerds and car geeks legitimately debating software stacks on stock in-car infotainment systems. It reminded me of a good post yesterday someone asked if any #Linux #audiophile people exist (debating the sound reproduction abilities of Pipewire vs Pulseaudio, etc). I can't find that post, and I lost the page with QNX audiophiles in the process.
Anyrate, QNX audiophiles are A Thing apparently, and they hang out with fans of the stereo that came with your car.
BlackBerry IoT devient QNX

Some folks think I am some sort of #Linux worship fiend.
Nothing further from the truth; I simply admire that, in an age of near absolute #enshittification of most commercial software, the whole #FOSS thing seems to prove itself, time and time again, as a process (community created, refined and supported) that generates Things That Work. Because their objective IS to make it work, not generate "value for shareholders" and help CEOs buy their fifth yacht.
I have oodles and buckets of things to pick at, regarding Linux. Monolithic kernel?? Really?? What is this, 1960s? You manage memory HOW? Oh. The list goes on and on, don't get me started.
I was a serious enthusiast of the myriad of alternative OSes, in the Cambrian-like explosion of diversity of the 90s. So much diverse, curious, ingenious, brilliant solutions and notions! #BeOS, #OS2 #QNX (ok, 1980s), #Plan9OS, #ReactOS, to name a few out of so, so many other great Alt OSs of the time...
Compared to those, Linux seemed to actually freeze and stall evolution, sticking to the limitations of the vision by Torvalds (sorry, man, it's true, plenty of admiration for the guy, but dropped the ball on that kernel) at the time of its inception.
However, being the mainstay of FOSS, I use it, champion it, and defend it against ANYTHING commercial.
Until someone truly resurrects BeOS (eeeeh #Haiku ... eh....) lol
There.

Took like two days for the #qnx license request. Are they doing these manually?
Trying to test #qnx for fun on the #raspberrypi but of course the whole license requesting thing is super slow. Ridiculous bs.
#QNX is free for non-commercial use again: https://www.qnx.com/products/everywhere/
They even published a RPi image.
Though HN comments remind that it happened at least twice, and make stakes on how long will this version persist: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42079460
But anyway that's a great opportunity to have a hands-on on the de-facto industry standard RTOS
News from former #Amiga partner: #QNX 8 now free for non-commercial use!
https://www.amiga-news.de/en/news/AN-2024-11-00046-EN.html
BlackBerry offers free access to QNX 8, its powerful real-time OS, for non-commercial use by students, hobbyists, and embedded system engineers.

BlackBerry’s QNX operating system is now free for non-commercial use
The last time I spent much time thinking about the QNX operating system was when Lee spent a few weeks in 2011 figuring out how to root a BlackBerry PlayBook tablet running the QNX-based PlayBook OS, sideload Android apps onto the tablet, and even load the Google Android Market (which was the predecessor to the Google Play Store).
But QNX has actually been around for more than four decades. It’s a Unix-like real-time, microkernel-based operating system that’s most widely used these days in automotive systems – more than 200 million cars run QNX-based software. While QNX has had several different owners over the years, BlackBerry has owned it since 2010. And now BlackBerry has announced that QNX is free for non-commercial use and released a QNX 8.0 image that runs on Raspberry Pi 4 computers. It’s part of a QNX Everywhere aimed at expanding the reach of QNX and attracting developers to the platform.
It’s worth noting that BlackBerry is not open sourcing QNX and right now the software isn’t really designed to be a user-friendly desktop or mobile operating system. But it has supported that kind of use in the past.
Skimming a Hacker News submission about QNX Everywhere shows a fair amount of skepticism from folks who feel that QNX has pulled the rug out from under developers in the past. While QNX has never been a fully open source operating system, the platform has been more open for development in the past, even releasing some source code. And, as OSNews notes, two decades ago there was an active community of QNX desktop developers who created a graphical user interface and ported open source software like Firefox and Thunderbird to run on the platform.
But QNX later shifted course and closed up its operating system, effectively killing the independent developer community. It’s possible that this latest effort could revive or create a new community of developers and hobbyists. Those with a long memory might be wary of getting burnt again though.
That’s not really the point of QNX Everywhere though. It’s more about building a developer community interested in working on embedded systems like the automotive and healthcare products that currently run QNX.

Blackberry Releases QNX Everywhere Free for Non-Commercial Use
https://linkedlist.org/2024/11/11/qnx-everywhere-free
Ликуй, разработчик — всего 14 лет и QNX снова открыли
Источник: openqnx.com Операционная система реального времени QNX теперь доступна для бесплатного некоммерческого использования. До 2010 года QNX была открыта, пока ее не приобрела компания BlackBerry. Впоследствии BlackBerry закрыла исходный код и на основе QNX разработала мобильную ОС BlackBerry 10, которая задумывалась как конкурент iOS и Android.
Seems #qnx is available for #raspberrypi
Did not know that.
QNX becomes free for non-commercial use, releases Raspberry Pi 4 image
A long, long time ago, back when running BeOS has my main operating system had finally become impossible, I had a short stint running QNX as my one and only operating system. In 2004, before I joined OSNews and became its managing editor, I also wrote and published an article about QNX on OSNews, whic
