The Linux drivers for the Broadcom 440X network cards has been released. This chipset is used in many dell laptops, for example the Dell Inspiron 8500 which the driver is tested on.
You can download both source and a QNX package here.
QNX Software Systems today announced it has adopted the DSP/BIOS(TM) Link technology from Texas Instruments to integrate and redistribute with the QNX® Neutrino® real-time operating system (RTOS). The arrangement will allow QNX to take advantage of the high- performance, low power consumption capabilities of Texas Instruments' dual- core OMAP(TM) platform for multimedia-enhanced devices. The first implementation runs on the OMAP5910 applications processor available in volume production today.
With the permission from the author (a QSS staffer), I am pleased to announce the QNX6 graphic driver for VMWare, available here. The package includes a graphics driver for Photon and a vmtool for accessing VMWare information (date, clipboard, etc.)
Untar and follow instructions in the README file.
You MUST be using 6.2.1 full install (core only installation will not work)
The author might release this on developer.qnx.com if time allows (they are all very busy working QNX 6.3).

Newer versions of Icon-o-Matic and Etch-a-Sketck are available on our web site.
After almost a half year's development, Alexander Domo releases the version 0.40 of NTFS driver for QNX 6. You can download the QNX binary package or the source code. The write support is still experimental but the read support is very stable and works well under QNX. For details, visit Domo's site at http://domo.qnx.org.ru/indexe.htm
With the permission from the author (a QSS staffer), I am pleased to announce the QNX4 driver for VMWare, available here. The package includes a graphics driver for Photon and a vmtool for accessing VMWare information (date, clipboard, etc.)
Unpax and follow instruction in the README file. In addition to the README instruction, setuid Pg.vmware and run crttrap clear.

This time, WFAA talks about QNX (free registration required): Cars, planes, household appliances and myriad other machines are increasingly relying on software to work. Manufacturers want the flexibility and innovation that programming code can bring. QNX Software Systems Ltd. has found a way to keep devices from crashing completely.
Universities in Europe and Asia will soon have access to advanced embedded solutions equipment, thanks to a new program introduced last week by QNX Software Systems. Qualifying institutions will receive hardware platforms ranging from Ultra Low Voltage Intel® Celeron® processor-based systems to server-class Dual Processor Intel Pentium?III processor systems from Intel.The program was announced at the QNX Russia 2003 conference.
