Hi,
I'm trying to run noux_bash on Linux on today's master genode branch, and running into some issues.
When I make run/noux_bash, I can see a x-window pop-up with the bash root prompt, and can extract using echo the following responses from bash:
bash-4.1# echo $PATH /usr/gnu/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:.
bash-4.1# echo $SHELL /bin/bash
bash-4.1# echo $TERM linux
However, any non-shell command causes a dead unresponsive shell, with
"Kernel: ipc_cap_data nullptr"
output on the screen running the run script:
[init] child "fb_sdl" announces service "Framebuffer" [init] child "fb_sdl" announces service "Input" [init] child "terminal" announces service "Terminal" [init -> terminal] create terminal session [init -> terminal] new terminal session: [init -> terminal] framebuffer has mode 1024x768@...487... [init -> terminal] character size is 6x14 pixels [init -> terminal] terminal size is 170x54 characters [init -> noux] Warning: stdin VFS path not defined, connecting to terminal session [init -> noux] Warning: stdout VFS path not defined, connecting to terminal session [init -> noux] Warning: stderr VFS path not defined, connecting to terminal session [init -> noux] --- noux started --- Kernel: ipc_cap_data nullptr
The terminal doesn't recognize the '/' of my keyboard, and so I cannot try giving full paths to the various executables like /bin/env. Is this an issue with my local setup, or running a non-released genode version, or a bug?
The broader question I had is: what would be needed to run bash from within a non-graphical terminal, as in via an ssh server. I have a very basic and incomplete sshd server running in genode linux [1], and need to fulfill, on the server end, the pty_request and shell_request sent by the ssh client.
I notice that the bash port is built using:
repos/ports/src/noux-pkg/bash/target.mk: # Prevent interactions with nonexisting tty driver CFLAGS += -DNO_TTY_DRIVER
and a repos/ports/src/noux-pkg/bash/check_dev_tty.patch which removes a bash call to check_dev_tty().
Would this affect the above goal?
Thanks,
