Can we add wifi drivers to visopsys ?
And then we can write a basic browser which supports html5 ? :p

is it possible ?

[andymc]

Sure it's possible, with enough work

There is an example network card driver that works with the virtual hardware in VMware (src/kernel/kernelLanceDriver.*), though the higher levels of the network stack are unfinished right now. I believe UDP works relatively well, but there's no TCP implementation yet

Finishing the network stack is on my agenda, but I was planning for it to be a bit further down the road.

Perhaps porting an existing open-source browser?

We can port any browsers but if we use , it will create security vulnerabilities... Maybe we can create virtual machine inside of Visopsys.. So we can load them inside of that.. It can be useful like a using Wine on linux (I don't many things about Wine but probably it does same thing Creates virtual HDD and loads apps & programs inside of that)

So we can get rid of security vulnerabilities

And what about ndiswrapper? Can we port it on Visopsys?

And what about ndiswrapper? Can we port it on Visopsys?

Perhaps - I haven't investigated that, personally. I know that in the past, people in OS dev circles frequently talked about it, but I'm not sure I've seen too many success stories. I might not have been paying close enough attention, though.
