Re: Problems with APIC on QEMU
With the Visopsys build pretty solid, and QEMU working with it, my next big thing was to figure a way to switch the current thread in a GDB session. That's something that's real easy to do when debugging userland programs running natively and locally. I realized that all of the GNU debugger's proces...

Re: Problems with APIC on QEMU
Finally, I'm making some sense of this QEMU thing. Well, I'm making sense of it until something else pops up, in any case. But - we've had some progress perhaps. I noted in the last message that I was seeing the symptoms of our QEMU related interrupt issues with "debug" target builds. Andy...

Re: Problems with APIC on QEMU
I've been looking at Visopsys's new touchscreen feature, and wanted to use QEMU so I'd have gdb debugging. I think we've documented that only QEMU 2.2.1 works with Visopsys. Running QEMU 2.2.1 with Visopsys 0.8_pre, from the downloaded ISO works OK. But, if I build Visopsys with debug info enabled (...

Re: Bug reporting thread: Touch screen Visopsys 0.8
I 've been playing with Visopsys 0.8 and the touch-screen feature. Starting with real hardware, I didn't get the touch-screen to work. In order to be able to debug the problem, I switched to QEMU, (yeah - I know - that potentially could have an issue all by itself :-( ). Anyway, I'm using the touchs...

Re: Bug reporting thread Visopsys version 0.8 (pre)
I noticed a bug when running the user administration application. The system continued to run long enough to allow me to click the details button to get the text, as shown below, and then froze. However; on subsequent boots, the user admin application was fine (no error). Process "login" c...

Re: Visopsys 0.8 preview
Hi again. I think I didn't write that correctly or plainly. It's a weird thing I'm doing. I'm using the "homemade" ARM tablet's display and touchscreen on a different (x86) computer, because I put connectors (HDMI and USB) on the tablet's enclosure for the purpose of using the display/touc...

Re: Visopsys 0.8 preview
Hi Andy: My homemade (ARM) tablet has a touchscreen, and I have connections on the box to use it as a stand alone monitor. Its touchscreen connects as a USB device. I'm not sure how that factors in, relative to Visopsys ... It's this one: http://www.hardkernel.com/main/products/prdt_info.php?g_code=...

Re: Visopsys 0.8 preview
Is the on-screen keyboard new? I never noticed it before, but it looks good. How do I select it? Is it set up only for the touch-screen? My touchscreen connects as a USB device.

Re: Visopsys 0.8 preview
Awesome! This is the best version yet. Wow - the user interface is all spiffed up like a pretty lady on dinner night. I know a lot of that is just artwork and such, but - wow - its looks have moved into the new century (sorry). It runs *great* on my SATA disk computer. Is that new also? Great job. E...

Re: Idea for quick TCP/IP stack
Hi Andy: I notice you like to write most of the system yourself. I guess that puts your personal imprint on it, and has the advantage that you'll really know the software inside and out, forward and backward, etc. Porting a project doesn't necessarily give you either one of those things. So - I can ...
