I would suggest the following:
- Let’s stick to the 3.0-M2-Aug preview for now
- Keep the “Accelerate 3D graphics” option enabled
If all you get is a black screen, try ‘Ctrl-Alt-F1’ (or other
Fx) to see if you have a console available
- Can you both check (and maybe send us):
- <virtual-machine-name>.vmx (on your host, directly in your
folder where the VM disks/config files are located)
- ‘vmware.log’ (same folder as above)
- ‘journalctl –a’ output (in your guest VM)
Thanks,
Geoffroy

I too have the same issue.
The only difference I can see is I am trying in 32-bit whereas in the website
it’s given as 64-bit.

Hi Mark,
Happy New Year to you too and to the rest of the Tizen IVI community out there!
☺
It sounds indeed like there is some sort of deficiency on your host machine…
not sure what. I’m using a Lenovo X220 (Core i5 with Intel HD Graphics 3000)
and that works fine. The other thing you could check is wether VT
(virtualisation) is turned on on your machine (in the Bios). I don’t know if
that could make a difference but something to double-check.
Cheers,
Geoffroy

Hi Geoffroy,
Thanks for the quick reply ! Happy new year ☺.
So, I have had many problems getting a 3.0 image going in a VM, and have tried
many combinations of player version, host platform, and image. All of my
attempts to use VMWare Player 6 ( on Windows and Linux ( Kubuntu 12.04 ), using
M2 and a later daily build from December ) have failed early in kernel
initialization with a complaint about being unable to read the RTC.
You are correct about the lack of 3D acceleration, it’s good to confirm that
this is related. I deselected this option, because with it selected I would end
up with just a black screen displayed just after the ‘Reached target Graphical
Interface’ message – no splash, no prompt, no logs, nothing. This wasn’t very
useful, so I deselected it just to be able to read the console output ☺.
So I am still thinking that my host platform is deficient in some sense.
Perhaps VMPlayer just does not play nice with these HD Graphics drivers, or
something like that. I’ll see if there are some newer graphics drivers
available. In the slightly longer term I can switch to a different host, but
that’s a negotiation with our IT dept ☺.
Cheers,
Mark de Roussier

Hi Mark,
This is typically what happens when there is no 3D acceleration available. Can
you make sure that the “Accelerate 3D graphics” option is checked (in the
virtual machine settings under “Display”)?
FYI, I have just tested that particular Tizen IVI image on both my systems and
it works fine for me too. I shall also note that I have since then upgraded my
VMware Player to version 6.0.0 build-1295980 (on Windows 7 Pro SP1, 64b) so
feel free to give that version a try too.
Thanks,
Geoffroy

Subject: Problem booting image in VMPlayer
Hi everyone,
I’m attempting to get a Tizen 3.0 IVI image booting in VMPlayer. I’m using :
VMPlayer 5.02 ( as per the VM instructions here
https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/IVI/IVI_3.0_VMware ) :
http://download.tizen.org/releases/milestone/tizen/ivi/tizen_20130829.9/images/ivi-release-mbr-i586/
Windows 7 Pro SP1 64bit
My boot sequence gets to
[ OK ] Reached target Graphical Interface
[ <timestamp value> ] pcnet32 0000:2.01.0 ens33: link up
and then just appears to halt – no login prompt, etc.
A colleague is able to get this combination booting, but I am not, which
possibly suggests a host hardware related issue. The relevant machine is a
Dell Latitude 6410 laptop ( Intel HD Graphics ).
Has anyone encountered a problem like this, or have any suggestions for further
investigation ?
Thanks,
Mark de Roussier
