File Manager

2017-06-08 Thread Nobody III
I've updated and simplified my file manager. It's incomplete, but it should still work. Feel free to give it a try. Any help would be appreciated. Here's the repository: https://github.com/NobodyIII/genode-desktop-environment To try it out, clone the repo and add it to your b

Qt in file manager?

2015-09-05 Thread Nobody III
I'm hoping to find time to write a file manager for Genode. Do you think I'm safe to use Qt? I'm not planning on showing previews at first, and if I decide to add previews, they will be rendered in a separate process, so the only untrusted data I see are the filenames. In this cas

Sorry for not being clear. Is there a way to set the fs_rom service to provide files from a directory within a filesystem (e.g. /bin) as ROM modules? (Sorry if I'm using the wrong terminology.) Since writing the previous email, I have experimented with acpi, ahci, and part_blk. I modified a previou

Hi Ben, > 1. How do I load executables and libraries from a filesystem? you cannot load executables or libraries directly a file system. On Genode, executables and libraries are always requested as so-called ROM sessions. Let me clarify the difference between ROM sessions and file-system sessions

Thanks. I'm almost ready to get working on making Genode run on my hard drive, but I still have a few questions: 1. How do I load executables and libraries from a filesystem? 2. How do I access a specific filesystem on a hard drive? 3. Can Genode automatically detect a filesystem's type? On Oct 2

What level of file management does Genode have? Is there a graphical file manager available? Does noux support file management? Also, since I am considering implementing a file manager if one doesn't already exist, how would I do it? I'm thinking of porting PCManFM to Genode, so ho
