Hello, The next release of coLinux which I hope to release this weekend, will include some important stability fixes, along with a bunch of console improvements contributed by Ballard. It will also include rewrites of the memory allocation method, which will allow it to use more than 256MB of RAM. Instead of using the scarced and limited non-paged virtual kernel memory pool, it will allocate pages from a lower level interface which I think is The Right Way (tm) to do it. If I have enough time this weekend, I'd also add swapping on the pseudo RAM level, which means that you could configure coLinux to use more RAM than there is available, instead of using swap devices on the Linux level. -- Dan Aloni da...@co... |

User suggestion: Hello. I think this project is very interesting, this my feedback/bugreport/wishlist: FeedBack: - We have download this stuff because sound fun. After a number of test looks like very stable, and use much fewer resources than VMWARE so.. can ve a replacement to some task or able strong majik here, at my w2k box. - Thanks for this nice effort!!!! BUGreport: - the gui console "forget" the text, we need to press [ENTER] to force a refresh of text. - the gui font is very small. - the build method is not ready for absolutelly idiots like me (I admit) Will provide more detailed info if needed. WishList: - Fullscreen alike mode. EXACTLY like putty. - or.. better gui console. - or the ability of change the font size - or a easyer build system (for deep idiots like me) Thats all, for now. Thanks! Tei _:D |

Thanks for you fast reply! the wiki suggest a method to enable networking that use ICS (window software nat), or something similar, and thats break my system beyond recognition (we already use a fragile setup with a nat router). Will retry has your suggestion can become amazingly interesting.. Humm... Its this work, the next cool thing can be to run the machine in background, and connect/disconnect putty has neeeded.. Will future versions minimice has a icon or run has a NT service? .. I am very idiot, so detach from desktop is a good idea, or I will click close the wrong taskbutton. |

I am glad to hear that the refresh issue with the console has been resolved, though it only slowed me down slightly while I was getting sshd installed and running. Once that is up, I just use putty. It would be nice to run the application as a service. I was never able to get Gentoo linux to boot on my desktop (IBM MPro), but it runs very well on CoLinux. I love this application! I am running on Windows XP and have Internet Connection Sharing configured to forward port 22 (and a few others) to the Linux box. So I can connect to my desktop's address from anywhere on my company's network with Putty and end up inside the linux box. I love it! Much thanks to Dan Aloni!!! Thanks also to those who suggested to install Gentoo from scratch (stage 2) and compile everything for i386 -- no more segmentation faults!
