Hi Norman,

For testing, it is very helpful to have Genode's LOG output available, which is directed to the comport. Unfortunately, modern PCs don't have a comport anymore. However, on most Intel-based PCs, there exists a feature called AMT that allows for sending comport output over the network. If you are interested in exploring this, it is worthwhile to search for 'amtterm'.
Finally got the x201 you supposed and tried to configure amt.
I tried the following: on the x201 enable AMT, setup a new user wolfgang with password and enable SOL. I set a IP4 adress of 10.1.1.2. With the username and password i can log into the AMT web site of the computer.
On a hp i tried the commands from http://genode.org/documentation/release-notes/13.05 (On the client i installed amtterm 1.3 from repository.) export AMT_TEST_MACHINE_IP=10.1.1.2 export AMT_TEST_MACHINE_PWD=Test$$44$$ (yep i know, but the machine cannot connect to the outside world)
and tried RUN_OPT="--target amt" make run/printf
The x201 does not seem to get touched - even with disconnected network cable the test is succesful.
I honestly does not understand amt. I tried to use amtterm instead to try out the connection. With amtterm i get a "amtterm: AUTH - ERROR (failure) amtterm: ERROR: session authentification failed". I know that amtterm has nothing to do with genode directly, but if you are using it could you give a hint for the right direction?
Best regards, Wolfgang
