Re: [coLinux-users] suggestion: linux runtime environment

[Oscar U. <osc...@pr...>]

Not sure there is a good bridge for this, or what exactly the function of i=
t would be. You might be able to share file systems, but running Linux apps=
 on Windows seamlessly is sort of a VM thing. Basically you'd need cygwin's=
 X11 on top for windowing environments. Since coLinux runs with in it's own=
 process space, not sure how the cross communication would be. Can you expl=
ain better what kind of integration your shooting for?? Of course, I only h=
ave a vague technical understanding of these things, so I'm not trying to t=
ype authoritatively on any of these issues.
