Hello Peter, > Even with the i7 Skylake's on chip graphics, waiting for my Dell XPS > 15 to join this list seems like it might be a bit of a long shot.
the quickest way to find that out would be to boot the seL4 and NOVA ISO images that we provided along with Genode 16.05 from a USB stick. You can find the images here: http://genode.org/documentation/release-notes/16.08#Try_Genode_seL4_at_home > Thus i write asking for an update on if I should spring for a > Thinkpad X250 or X260? last time I queried Norman mentioned one > should order it with Intel's (user facing) remote management engine > enabled.. ( always enabled for use by the NSA )... I recommended AMT solely for its serial-over-line (SOL) feature. Without it, it is very hard to debug low-level problems. In case you don't intend to work on such a low level (device drivers, kernel) but merely use Genode or work on higher-level components, it is not important at all. It is also worth noting that we (in particular Alex) are investigating alternative ways to obtain low-level log output: https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/issues/2207 > I am also interested in cross development of Genode to ARMv7, ARMv8.. > for ARM development, it seems like the Arndale Board > <http://www.arndaleboard.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page> is currently the > path of least resistance?... > I currently have a Zynq-7000 (dual ARM9) based SnickerDoodle > <http://krtkl.com/> on my bench that may be fairly easy for Genode to > boot up? Zynq is a good choice as it is actively being used and maintained by Johannes Schlatow. At Genode Labs, we currently focus on Freescale i.MX, i.e., i.MX6-based devices. > is Genode likely to support a more modern ARMv8 implementation likely > in the near term? I am not aware of any current plans to support ARMv8. Speaking from Genode Labs's perspective, we'd be open to pursue such a development as a commissioned project but not on our own account.
