Hi,
I am a researcher at Inria France and am presently exploring Genode as a potential option to perform hands on with Sel4. I am relatively new to Genode and having an issue while installing it.
Here is the issue: I am trying to install Genode on Ubuntu (16.04 LTS) running within a container. I am able to successfully see through all the installation steps.
However, when I issue the final command: make -C build/x86_32 KERNEL=okl4 run/demo, I get this following error.
make[1]: Leaving directory '/Genode/genode/build/x86_32' genode build completed using 'core-okl4.o' as 'core.o' using 'ld-okl4.lib.so' as 'ld.lib.so' using 'pit_timer_drv' as 'timer' install bootloader creating ISO image... xorriso 1.4.2 : RockRidge filesystem manipulator, libburnia project.

I did install |libsdl1.2-dbg. |Clearly, I do not have a display connected, as I am trying to run it from within a container. Could you please help me with this issue?
Thank you in advance!
Yours sincerely, Subhadeep
I'd suggest you to comment QEMU_OPT += -display sdl out from the etc/build.conf, and add an option like QEMU_OPT += -display vnc=<IP address>:<display>
This would activate QEMU built-in VNC server. You would be able to access the Genode display via a VNC client, connecting to a <IP address>:<display> VNC display.
I'm connecting to my development Linux system from my main OS, via SSH. When I need to run binaries, to test them, I start the corresponding run script. I see the logs in my SSH window. When I need to see the Genode screen, I just start the VNC viewer. The only disadvantage is that the mouse cursor in a VNC client is displaced, relative to Genode mouse cursor. I still did not worked this problem around. Also, there exists an option to run QEMU screen, or a SDL window in Genode/Linux, remotely via X11 remote connection (you need your DISPLAY env. variable to point to your local X11 display). But I did not managed to make it working successfully, because when I run it from an SSH session, it tries to use the "fbcon" SDL backend. Trying to set SDL_VIDEODRIVER env. variable to "x11" doesn't help here.
