Helo again.

I ditched vmware due to licensing issues for now, but thank you for the help i know how to fix it and i understand how to get things running.

I jumped to our own emulator based on qemu (there is a very fresh piece of code on tizen.org). I got it to build and run the Common image, weston shows up but starting anything is causing a segfault in the tz-launcher process. Though i was not able to start weston with the DRM backend, it's running on fbdev. The VIGS/Yagl implementation in the kernel/qemu might not be wayland ready, but the FBDEV stuff seems to work fine. I don't know what tz-launcher is doing that it's doing a segfault, i was able to start a weston terminal and that seems to work.

The small fix i had to do was adding the display user to the video group. Also the kernel for the emulator needs to be rebuilt (the default config in the emulator-kernel repo assumes that the root disk is /dev/vda and has that hard-coded in a minimal initramfs that builds with the kernel)

Could someone tell me if tz-launcher might need DRM and that's why it's crashing or is that something else i'd need to check ?

best regards

Quick update:

I got the Tizen Common Weston desktop up and running under VMware using this image: http://download.tizen.org/releases/daily/tizen/common/common-wayland-x86_64/tizen_20140513.6/

The quickest way is to modify the /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf file and add 'security=none' to the kernel command-line (workaround for https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/TIVI-2964), a more permanent workaround (but not a complete fix) would be to modify the kernel config to have vmwgfx built-in (instead of a module). I have also verified that such modifications solves the issue (and you can keep security turned on in that case which you really really want).

I can push a patch to have 'vmwgfx' built-in to Tizen Common. In general, it may be good to re-use some of the specific kernel configs that are described here also in the Tizen Common kernel: https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/IVI/artem-kernel#Kernel_configuration (look for those that are documented as useful for VMware).

Hi Roman,

If you're interested, I used to keep some 'recipes' on how to run Tizen IVI 2.0 (based on X) under VMware, it's described here: https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/IVI/IVI_2.0_VMware. Back then, I had to provide the xorg-x11-drv-vmware driver (as you have pointed out below) and I also had to modify some of the build options used for mesa and libdrm. Feel free to take a look there if you want to get that working but as pointed out by Dominique, we are not focused on X in Tizen 3.0 so I'm not sure where this would lead you to.

A more interesting path would be to get the Wayland image running on VMware. I have quickly looked at the kernel used in Common and the vmwgfx driver is built as a module which means we could be hitting https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/TIVI-2964 <https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/TIVI-2964>. I'll see if I can run a quick test on my side to validate this. If that's the problem, you could try to turn security off (add 'security=none' at the kernel command-line) or rebuild the kernel with the 'vmwgfx' driver built-in.

Just to update the Xorg image won't work either, there is only one driver included in the image for Xorg and that's the intel_drv.so (bit selfish i think) no fbdev or vmware drivers are present so Xorg will never start. Also i can't any service in systemctl that could be some sort of a windows manager.

        I got the images running before (the IVI profile) on VMware,
        so VMware itself is not an issue.
        My question was really, SHOULD I see something in the image,
        is there a UI in the common profile at all or is this a bare
        bones sort of OS image that contains no UI experience at all.

    When booting Tizen Common you should have a test UX (basic Weston)
    with several user pre-logged on the system.
    The background show the sea and several islands.




    My question about Xorg is still not answered, what is the UI for
    Xorg i should expec t to find in the common image (is there some
    sort of default WM that should launch?)

    We currently do not build a Tizen Common for X but only Wayland 32
    and 64 nits for IA and 32 bits for ARM (work in progress)
    If someone is interested to take the responsibility of building
    and maintain X Common images, thanks to speak up.

    Regards

    Dominig
