Should work fine!  I use it for everything on Haiku... (:-))

What exactly doesn't work?  Are you sure you have the Haiku version
(1.3-H)?  (The old BeOS version doesn't run.)  And you *have* read the
setup instructions, right? (:-/)

Give me details on what's wrong (off-list if you like) and I'll try to help
you get it working.
