Hi,

I cannot get the basic demo to work inside my VM. Here's my setup:

- x86_64 machine running - Windows 7 running - VirtualBox 5.1.28 running - Ubuntu 16.04

My process within the Ubuntu VM was:

- Installed the various tools to build (genode-toolchain-17.05, libsdl2-dev, etc) - Ran git clone to get Genode 17.08 - Ran *./tool/create_builddir linux BUILD_DIR=../build* - Changed *build.conf* to enable MAKE += -j4 - Ran *make run/demo*

Everything builds fine but nothing significant happens. Here's the console output (post build):

using 'core-linux' as 'core' using 'ld-linux.lib.so' as 'ld.lib.so' using 'linux_timer_drv' as 'timer' spawn ./core Genode 17.08 <local changes>

17592186044415 MiB RAM and 8997 caps assigned to init Warning: blocking canceled in entrypoint constructor <Demo just sits here until I press Ctrl-C>

If I check the process list (before the Ctrl-C) I don't see anything other than *make*, *expect*, and *core*. After attaching gdb to the (unstripped) *core *process I see that one thread is sleeping in* _sig_rec->block_for_signal()* and another thread is sleeping in *_wait_for_exit_sem.down()*.

The huge RAM allocation for init seems unreasonable, but I saw some similar output in other posts. Is the "blocking canceled" warning to be expected? Should I see the other processes listed in *launchpad.config* running?

Just to be safe I've redone all these steps multiple times and even built the genode toolchain from source. What should I check next?

Thanks, Tom
