Hi,<div><br></div><div>The linux experiment sounds very interesting. We have talked lot of times about doing something like that for NOS. More than a compiler we have thought something like an emulator. Its very interesting, but is a complex and big project. </div>
<div><br></div><div>For the tests not green well...last versions are old and, as you can see from last mails, we are trying to find time to adapt NOS to the new VMs (Cog, Stack). That first step would help a lot.</div><div>
<br></div><div>Last versions also hasn't Network support, that's why on test you have that and monticello shows errors. There are some old packages for doing some network stuff, we should look if we can make them work again.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div>Guido.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2012/11/2 Evgeniy Philippov <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:egphilippov@gmail.com" target="_blank">egphilippov@gmail.com</a>></span><br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">(11:22:29) egp_: I may hope to write a C/C++ compiler to run from inside of (modified?) Squeak, to import Linux into Squeak... To experiment like that... But I am windy, don't know if the desire will stay.<br>
(11:23:44) egp_: Maybe some additional languages like (new) mathtalk would be necessary<br>
(11:24:02) egp_: (mathtalk is my term)<br>
(11:24:43) egp_: (all of the above experimental thoughts are vague)<br>
<br>
About NOS:<br>
<br>
I downloaded a 2011.March HDD image and ran it inside a VMWare Player.<br>
<br>
(11:47:11) egp_: Great. SqueakNOS has booted OK under "VMWare Player" under my "Win7 Home Extended". NOS has shown a number of Squeak windows.<br>
(11:48:32) egp_: My machine's hardware are ASUS motherboard, Intel i3 32-bit processor, and nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS.<br>
(11:51:34) egp_: At NOS, mouse and keyboard are working OK. "Load sources from disk" prompt seems to have loaded sources OK.<br>
(11:53:33) egp_: Monticello browser shows an error "primitive failed".<br>
(11:55:18) egp_: Menu -> System -> "Space left" shows 17 MB.<br>
(11:56:26) egp_: squeak image save seem to have worked OK (I didn't try reloading image yet.)<br>
(11:58:33) egp_: Test Runner -> "Run Coverage" has shown an error: MessageNotUnderstood<br>
(12:00:31) egp_: NetworkTests-(Protocols,Url): all (i.e. 39) tests passed OK.<br>
(12:03:44) egp_: Net-Tests: 63 run, 18 passed OK, 9 failures, 36 errors.<br>
(12:06:09) egp_: NetworkTests-*: 156 run, 123 passed OK, 30 "expected failures", 3 errors.<br>
(12:10:07) egp_: I switched from VMWare NAT mode to Bridged mode. Re-testing.<br>
(12:11:55) egp_: Exactly the same results for Net-Tests and Network-Tests-*.<br>
(12:13:44) egp_: Heheh FAT32F*S*Test: 15 run, 6 passed OK, 3 failures, 6 errors. SO BEWARE OF USING ON A REAL HDD, this is a buggy code :)<br>
(12:17:02) egp_: SqueakNOS-(FileSystems, FileSystemsFAT32): 18 run, 7 passed, 3 failures, 8 errors.<br>
(12:19:32) egp_: Well. Personally I find NOS mode as more interesting than OS+Squeak mode. :)<br>
(12:22:33) egp_: Pressed "Save and quit".<br>
(12:25:50) egp_: Pressed Reset. After a quick boot process (my machine has SSD drive and 3.3Ghz CPU), all Squeak windows shown up OK.<br>
<br>
