Windows Vista has worked for me. But I do think it's time to update.

Using Windows Vista Ultimate with Service Pack 2. Sleepyhead 9.3 has been flawless, and very much appreciated. Installed 9.5 and it functions, loads data and shows summary page fine. But when I go to daily data, picture fades and disappears and icon on bar leaves me. Old version (9.3) still working ok. Thanks for all the effort.

Would also love to see a version for the Ipad.

I use Windows 7 simply because I have never been able to get SleepyHead working properly in my main OS, Linux-Mint.

I would import the data off my SD card using SleepyHead in Windows, they copy my profile to Google Drive so that I can reboot into Linux and copy it over. But that changed with the latest release. Just tried it, and this procedure doesn't work any more.

I really love the new release, I really hope you can find the time to make a Linux deb of it.

Reference my previous post, when I turn on the debug pane:

Hope it helps.

I'm suspecting you have an intel video card? Or at least a video card with broken OpenGL video drivers.

The good news is I have a fix already in the pipeline.. This fix unfortunately slows graph rendering down quite a bit, but will allow SleepyHead to technically run on more computers (not to mention cleans the graph drawing code up immensely)

Hopefully I'll have a new test build up tomorrow for anyone experiencing glitches with graphics..

I'm hoping it's not too slow to use on older computers.

While I'd love every platform operating under the sun supported, I use a cross platform library called Qt so I don't have to think about this stuff. So when Qt drops support for an operating system, SleepyHead loses it too, unless it's built with an older version of Qt, which forces SleepyHead codebase to try not to use any advanced or new features provided in newer Qt versions, holding it back.

It's not all bad news though.. out with the old, in with the new: The newer Qt versions bring rapidly improving Win Phone 8, WinRT, Android and iOS versions, and with recent changes I've (just) made to the graphics system, it's not unforseeable that there may be a phone/tablet version of Sleepyhead soon.
Thanks for the great work! I use Mac OSX 10.9.2.

I use windows 7 with no issues whatsoever. I just pop the little chip card thing into its USB reader, open Sleepyhead, select the user profile, info comes up. Next select the import, normal location, and boom there it is... updated.

With my Windows Vista Ultimate, it is an Intel Video Card, up to date driver, in a Dell Inspiron 1525 Laptop, about 6 or 7 years old. I will continue to work at it.

Many thanks for your efforts.

Windows 8.1 for me. Regular on the laptop, and I have RT on my Surface and Pro on the desktop so I could get Windows Media Center to be able to turn that into a DVR.

It's been fine for me on my laptop lately.

Debian Testing here. I just discovered this awesome app two days ago, after upgrading from an 8-year old machine to an S9 Elite. It compiled easily for me, though I had to delete the lines from the translations file for some reason. But it runs! Thank you for the great utility - seeing my charts is way way way better than just seeing AHI, AI, and HI values.

What's the future of Linux ports look like? I've got a friend who's loading Linux on a laptop. Is the latest Linux version really 0.9.2, or am I missing something?
you have to DIY linux... there's no current versions posted... build from source.
