Announcement: Sculpt OS version 24.10 released
by Norman Feske 30 Oct '24

30 Oct '24

[again, now with the correct subject] Hello everyone, it's my great pleasure to announce today's release of Sculpt OS 24.10: https://genode.org/news/sculpt-os-release-24.10 The new version features the highly anticipated support for multiple monitors, which was quite a challenging feat. In fact, it required a far-reaching redesign of Genode's GUI stack to make applications multi-monitor-aware, ensure the visibility of the pointer at all times, avoid increased CPU load on account of serving multiple output devices, and propagate DPI information from each monitor's EDID information right down to the applications. With these technical questions cleared, the remaining challenge was making the new abilities available to the user via both a convenient interactive user interface - nicely embedded in Sculpt's component graph - as well as text-driven configuration. You can find the new facilities covered in the updated documentation: https://genode.org/documentation/articles/sculpt-24-10#Multi-monitor_support Besides the added multi-monitor support, the new version benefits from all advancements of the Genode OS Framework since April, specifically the updated arsenal of Linux-based drivers (Wifi, Ethernet, Intel display, USB) to version 6.6.47, and the uncountable new niceties of the Goa SDK. We just made the new version simultaneously available for Intel PCs, the PinePhone, and the MNT Reform laptop. Seasoned Sculpt OS users can readily switch to version 2024-10-30 using the system-update dialog. New users are invited to fetch a bootable system image from our download page. https://genode.org/download/sculpt Thanks to everyone of our team for having developed, stress-tested, and polished the release as a concerted effort!

missing content on index for my latest genodians.org post
by Pirmin Duss 27 Sep '24

27 Sep '24

Hello Genodians I pushed a new article to my genodian repository (github.com/trimpim/genodian. On the index page no content is displayed. This didn't occur to me while writing, as I always directly looked at the page I edited. I already tried to figure out, what is wrong, so I could push a fixup. I compared the new article to the old one and the title and the first paragraph are formatted about the same. Could anyone give me a hint what could be wrong with my article? Best regards, Pirmin

Mounting a Storage to Genode (for base-linux, x86)
by Rumen Mitov 30 Aug '24

30 Aug '24

Hello, I would need persistent storage for the Genode project I am working on. I tried to adapt the "repos/os/run/nvme.run" script but I could not get it to run on the base-linux platform. I need the linux platform as I am using lwext4 for the filesystem. As far as I understand, I need to use the lx_block component to manage the storage block inside the guest OS, but in order for this to be persistent I need to mount a backing store file from the host OS. In other words, I want to mount the file bin/ext4.raw as persistent storage mapped to /dev/hdd in the guest OS. I have attached my current iteration of my run script as well as the program files in case someone would like to try to run it. If anyone knows of any repos that have solved this, please let me know! Best, Rumen

Announcement: Genode OS Framework version 24.08 released
by Norman Feske 29 Aug '24

29 Aug '24

I'm happy to announce the release of Genode version 24.08 today. https://genode.org/news/genode-os-framework-release-24.08 This mid-summer release cycle was very much focused on consolidation work and the upgrade of 3rd-party software, in particular the upgrade of the Qt application framework to version 6 and the move of all Linux-based components and PC drivers to kernel version 6.6.47. The Goa SDK had been a prominent topic over the previous few releases and this one is no exception. Now, all puzzle pieces have fallen into place for seamless remote debugging by combining Goa with Sculpt OS. If this makes you curious, enjoy the detailed release documentation to learn more: https://genode.org/documentation/release-notes/24.08 The improvements of version 24.08 at a glance: - Qt6 application framework - Linux-based components updated to kernel version 6.6.47 - Mesa updated to version 24.0.8 - Enhanced board support for i.MX-based devices - Remote debugging using the Goa SDK - Meson build system support for the Goa SDK - API modernization of the base and GUI framework - Switch to Rust nightly tool chain - Initial x86 AVX support on NOVA Cheers Norman -- Dr.-Ing.

Change in RockChip repo

Hello! I have updated my genode-rockchip to include RK3399. Unfortunately none of the targets starts using Genode from git. They doesn't survive the jump from bootstrap/ctr0 to bootstrap/init. https://github.com/mickenx/genode-rockchip Michael

24 Aug '24

Hello, I have been stuck on this linker error for a while now, and I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix it? I have attached the log file, the run script, the target.mk file, and the three program files (squid.cc and squid.h are based on the code I found in fs_tool). Best, Rumen
