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.
best regards

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.

Dominig
