Random Thoughts / Questions (inspired by Roadmap discussion)
by John J. Karcher 15 Jan '24

15 Jan '24

Hello everyone, This has certainly been an interesting Roadmap discussion (as usual)! Here are a few thoughts and questions that are not directly related to the Roadmap. Haiku-on-Genode: Cedric, your HoG screenshot looks great! Please keep us informed - I hope your TuneTracker transition goes smoothly! Framework 16: After many years of waiting for an upgradable, open-source, full-size laptop, it looks like it is finally almost here. Assuming there are no show-stopping problems, I am looking to get a Framework 16 this year. Of course, the experience would not be complete without Genode running natively on it. I was encouraged by Pirmin's report that Sculpt worked on his AMD system. Is anyone else interested in this laptop? Does anyone have any thoughts on running Sculpt on it (granted that we don't have the hardware yet)? Depot Package Discoverability: Several people have mentioned that it is difficult to discover which Sculpt depot packages are available, and from where. I am going to try to put a temporary solution in place for this, until someone develops something better. No promises on timing, but I want to bring the badly neglected "Genode Corner" [1] up to date, then add a front-end for listing / searching Depot packages. This will probably take the form of a daily process to pull in the depot indexes, add a search page, and maybe an RSS feed system. If anyone has any implementation advice or feature requests, please let me know. [1] https://www.alternateapproach.com/computing/genode/genode_corner/ Happy Sculpting! -- John J.

Options for interfacing C application
by Michael Grunditz 15 Jan '24

15 Jan '24

Hi I woud like to know what options I have for interfacing a C app with Genode. I guess I can make it a libc styled app. The only thing I need is to have a piece of RAM (framebuffer) shared. If possible .. can I put in .a archives into build system and link with a libc app/server? It would be very helpfull. Ideally I would like to have a seperate server for framebuffer. Good night and thanks, Michael Grunditz

Genode, RISC OS and the lot .. demo in Bristol
by Michael Grunditz 09 Jan '24

09 Jan '24

Hi everyone, I am planing to show my efforts with Genode and RISC OS on the RISC OS South West show in Bristol 24/2. I plan to stay there from thursday evening to monday morning and if someone would like to join me it would be terrific! Plenty of time during friday to talk about new ports usb , and what not! But there is a big IF around this. I have a psychosis diagnose that prevents me from normal work for money. This means that I can't travel to Bristol without substantial help. For the first time I am running a (humiliating) GoFundMe campaign. It is aimed to RISC OS users. It is kind of embarrassing to post this on this list , but I don't have much of a choice :-( (the link would be here,, send me a email for the link) Any surplus will finance new dev boards. Sorrry and thanks, Michael Grunditz

seoul vmm in qemu
by Ivan Loskutov 09 Jan '24

09 Jan '24

Hello Genodians, I am trying to run seoul demos from genode-world in qemu. It works on my PC but doesn't work on my laptop. The VM is getting stuck on booting. Last messages in the log: [init -> seoul] VMM: # [ 0.000000] Console: colour dummy device 80x25 [init -> seoul] VMM: # [ 0.000000] printk: console [tty0] enabled [init -> seoul] VMM: # [ 0.000000] printk: bootconsole [earlyser0] disabled [init -> seoul] VMM: [1] [init -> seoul] VMM: unsupported rdmsr 396 at 810186f7 [init -> seoul] VMM: [0] [init -> seoul] VMM: unsupported wrmsr 2ff0 <-(0:20000000) at ffffffff8101854f I suspect that it can be related to CPU. On PC I have i5-9600K, on laptop - i7-1270P. Any ideas on how to fix it? Thanks! -- Best Regards Ivan Loskutov

key..... lacks Qt mapping
by ttcoder＠netcourrier.com 08 Dec '23

08 Dec '23

Fellow Genodians, I'm reaching "alpha" stage (or a good approximation thereof) of my "distro" project at last, added a depot manager that mimics the one in ScultOS, so that the distro can download and use the wealth of packages provided on genode.depot.org. Greatly enjoying my newfound ability to use that software :-) but the one issue that remains is one I can't figure out so far : keyboard input (mostly) does not work, in Falkon and qt5_textedit (I'm assuming, all Qt apps). I'm hitting this warning: https://github.com/cproc/qt5/blob/018e7c70f8d5bb5e000acf203d843317a6394a7d/… Thought of filing a ticket in cproc/qt5/ or in genode-world/, but the most likely explanation is that I'm doing something wrong during system integration. That's in 23.05 ; in 23.08 I can't get networking to function (with ipxe_nic_drv or with the newer pc_nic_drv from the depot) which precludes downloading newer packages instead of re-using the 23.05 revisions. I'll try 23.11 in the next couple weeks. Symptoms and code paths: - 'modifier' keys listed in the QGenodePlatformWindow::_map_key switch() do work (I can move the cursor with the arrow keys, delete) - however, all letters, digits, punctuation, spacebar, fail to work, and output a warning to LOG - each time, the warning says e.g. "key KEY_A,18 U+fffe lacks a Qt mapping" - it's interesting that the unicode is always "fffe" - so the Input::Keycode is correct (it says KEY_A, KEY_B, etc)... - but the Codepoint.value is always incorrect (it's always fffe) ? I'm not setup for working with Qt, so can't add instrumenting in the lib itself or the apps. I was able to find the warning() despite github erroring out on "we're reindexing the site, please come back later" because that file happened to be listed in the recent commits :-) I'm probably doing something wrong, but what ? Only thing I can think of is... - unseen problem when downloading/configuring Qt5 apps, compared to the way SculptOS does it ? - problem with underlying configuration/system-integration ? I use nitpicker and event_filter as per basic .run file examples Thanks for any hint on this, it's driving me nuts, Cedric

Announcement: Genode OS Framework version 23.11 released
by Norman Feske 30 Nov '23

30 Nov '23

At the dusk of November, we have just released version 23.11 of the Genode OS Framework, which includes all the recent improvements present in Sculpt OS 23.10 as well as plenty of new feats and features. https://genode.org/news/genode-os-framework-release-23.11 Just to name the highlights, the new version moves the IOMMU driver from the kernel to the user land, introduces the monitoring and steering of CPU power/temperature/frequency, comes with a new API for low-complexity GUI applications, and streamlines the framework's virtualization interface. It also improves developer ergonomics and showcases the port of the Linphone VoIP stack. Here are the most prominent improvements at a glance: - Kernel-agnostic DMA protection - PC power, frequency, temperature sensing and control - Modernized virtualization interface - New API for low-complexity interactive applications - Seoul virtual machine monitor for 64-bit guest OSes - Ports of Linphone VoIP stack, socat, SDL2 libraries - USB device drivers updated to Linux 6.1.20 - Improved build-system for quick development-test cycles You can find these and more topics covered in great detail in the official release documentation for the new version: https://genode.org/documentation/release-notes/23.11 Cheers Norman -- Dr.-Ing.
