Re: [coLinux-users] coLinux hangs and freezes at boot

[deneme.true <den...@gm...>]

Yes, I've build the fltk as mentioned at building
doc(build/patch/install) I think problem is with symlinks. Probably,
daemon couldn't find colinux-console-fltk symlink because of symlinks.
I've only copy the symlinks from which exists coLinux build directory
to in a new directory and I am executing the colinux-daemon where I've
copied the symlinks. But I couldn't solve the problem yet.

Re: [coLinux-users] coLinux hangs and freezes at boot

[yin s. <sun...@gm...>]

no need to figure out how to debug in kernel module.
you need to solve  this problem " colinux-console-fltk  not found"
did you build/patch/install fltk as mentioned (not that straightforward
though) by the building guide under doc directory?
if you have the fltk console built, this is the gui client that will talk
to colinux kernel.
you can manually run the console after colinux kernel booted.

Re: [coLinux-users] coLinux hangs and freezes at boot

[deneme.true <den...@gm...>]

Below, some situations exists that take my attention:
---

I set host's file system as ext4 when installing debian squeeze.

Is this make problem for mounting rootfs.img as ext3?

When I press Ctrl+C it exits from coLinux boot process.

At boot process:

At below gcc version and Debian version is indicated:

Linux version 2.6.33.7-co-0.7.10 (yyyy@yyyy) (gcc version 4.4.5 (Debian 4.4.5-8)

after that I've seen this:

sh: colinux-console-fltk: not found

I've already add to the current directory to path(PATH=.:$PATH) but
coLinux complains that couldn't found colinux-console-fltk.

And If I want to debug output of the module with this command:

sudo insmod colinux.ko debug_misc=31

It fails too and daemon couldn't run.

Re: [coLinux-users] coLinux hangs and freezes at boot

[yin s. <sun...@gm...>]

yes, devel branch is what you should use.
in your case, it is not frozen (can you ctrl-c to stop the process?). your
colinux gui client is not found in your path.
after kernel boot, the daemon will shift the display to client. not sure
how familiar with windows version of colinux. it is the same design.

you just need to start the gui client from another terminal manually.

Re: [coLinux-users] coLinux hangs and freezes at boot

I have used devel branch at svn.
http://colinux.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/colinux/branches/devel/

Am I going to use stable
branch(http://colinux.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/colinux/branches/stable/)
instead of devel branch?

Is devel branch working at your systems?

Thanks in Advance.

Re: [coLinux-users] coLinux hangs and freezes at boot

[deneme.true <den...@gm...>]

Only, coLinux boot sequence is frozen and boot never continues to other steps.

Thanks in Advance.

Re: [coLinux-users] coLinux hangs and freezes at boot

[yin s. <sun...@gm...>]

is the whole machine frozen?
check /var/log/syslog it should contain some logs when colinux.ko is loaded
and runs.
try kernel booting first, ex.
 $sudo ./colinux-daemon mem=64 kernel=vmlinux
just to narrow down the scope of the problem.
maybe try the debug daemon, but I never used it under linux though.

[coLinux-users] coLinux hangs and freezes at boot

[deneme.true <den...@gm...>]

Hello,

I've successfully complied coLinux daemons and kernel at debian
squeeze for Linux.

I am starting coLinux with:
$sudo mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug/
$sudo insmod colinux.ko
$sudo ./colinux-daemon mem=64 kernel=vmlinux cobd0=rootfs_2gb.img
cobd1=swap_128mb.img root=/dev/cobd0

It hangs and freezes at boot of the coLinux at below line:
>EXT3-fs (cobd0): using internal journal

I can send more and debug output with your directions.

What will be the problem? Is there a common problem with latest devel
svn version of the coLinux at debian squeeze for Linux?

Thanks in Advance

[coLinux-users] ssh connection with browsers

[deneme.true <den...@gm...>]

Hello,

I've problem with Win XP system which is couldn't connect to ssh
connection through browsers via Socks4 or Socks5.

Probably, problem is related with bridging, when one adapter is
bridged, probably I couldn't bind the ssh client to loopback adapter
at local port.(for example 8080)(which is bridged adapter)

I've looked the wiki but I couldn't find any solution.

But it is interesting that ssh connection from XP to coLinux through
putty or kitty is working also I've seen the binding of port 8080 of
XP at firewall but I couldn't connect with browsers through ssh
connection which is binded to 8080 port of XP system.

Could you please help me?

Thanks in advance.

Regards.

Re: [coLinux-users] colinux service issue

[H. N. <hen...@ar...>]

Hello Guorke,

for the network problem: If you starts coLinux from command line and as Service, Windows uses an other account, and inside Linux you have an other MAC for the network card.  The Ubuntu tends to rename every new card from eth0 into an other, for example eth1, eth2 and so.

Edit the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and rename the eth1 or eth2 back into eth0. Than the network from start as service should work in same way as from command line.

Please read the fix in wiki:
http://colinux.wikia.com/wiki/Wubi#udev:_renamed_network_interface_eth0_to_eth2

Hope this helps.

Re: [coLinux-users] Fw:Re: colinux service issue

[guorke <gu...@gm...>]

 Hi all,

thanks for your tips. let me descibe it more clearly:
I installed colinux (0.7.9) on windows and choosed ubuntu 9.04 as root fs.
And I could start colinux in command line ,like "colinux-daemon
@ubuntu.conf -t nt". Recently i updated ubuntu root fs from 9.04 to 10.04
use cobootstrap script, but i could not get login prompt for this root fs,
not find no any error message , and ubuntu system seemed have been worked.

anyway, thanks again.

Option "debug" is for UML, not for coLinux.
You can run an UML-Linux-Kernel and you can debug it.

But, you can not debug the coLinux kernel or modules. coLinux kernel
runs directly on the native CPU, there exist no dispatcher or hypervisor
for debug. In source exist some ideas for debugging, but they are not
finished and have no interface to GDB.

Debugging modules directly via /dev/kcore is not supported by coLinux.
It was disabled, because the physical memory of native Linux is pseudo
physical memory (and not linear) under coLinux.

Re: [coLinux-users] Can I Add Speech?

[yin s. <sun...@gm...>]

fundamentally you need to figure out how to make colinux support ALSA
virtual drive
I also saw those postings but never a conclusive answer. I have to
talk about theory here since I never use that part.

We have to admit the colinux development is low, in your case if might
be easier to try virtual box first.

[coLinux-users] Can I Add Speech?

[Hart L. <ch...@hu...>]

Well, finally have a working Debian instalation on a Vista laptop.  However, 
since I am totally blind, I really need speech on the Linux side.  Yes, I have 
both JAWS and NVDA talking on the windows side, but they will not seemingly 
provide any speech in Linux.
Supposedly Speakup is in staging, also YASR is in the repo.
Sure I could run a livecd such as GRML, which has some speech options, but 
having a Linux machine where I can jump over to the windows side.
There was also an Oralux livecd which had many speech options.
In running searches, all I could find were 2004-and-2005 postings about a lack 
of sound support.
So can some1 please mention if there are easy ways to get speech in CoLinux? 
Thanks so much in advance

Re: [coLinux-users] kernel module programming

[deneme.true <den...@gm...>]

I've seen the .config file. I didn't type ./configure again. I've just
type only make command.
I've seen that modpost.o object file is created when compiling. After
that it is possible to compile kernel modules. But at wiki only
'./configure && make kernel' command isn't adequate to compile kernel
modules. If configure file exists; make command should be call.
