I am trying L4Re with Fiasco.OC. I have successfuly build l4re-snapshot. Now I am trying to run examples. I am always building iso images with make grub2iso. Now I am editing .cfgs and .list files.
I am trying to get working L4CON. The L4Con runs okay, saying: con | Running. Video mode is 800x600@16. con | Ready. Waiting for clients
Now I suppose I need some client to work with L4CON. I have tried fbterminal, but it doesn't work. (Or i am missing something in .cfgs)
I have added fbterminal to run after "con", but in logs it runs earlier ang log says: fbdrv | Starting server loop mmag | mapped frame buffer at 0x400000 fbtermin| Could not bind event IRQ
How can I achive to get some console with for example dash running?
Your configuration is having a few issues: - It is starting two 'screen-multiplexers': con and mag, just use one, which one does not matter, they are behaving the same. - 'fbdrv_fb' gives access to the real (physical) framebuffer, i.e. give it only to mag or con. - Do not give any vbus-cap to fbterminal, it does not need it. - To open a new console you need to create it, e.g. in the fbterminal's caps: fb = mag_caps.svc:create(L4.Proto.Goos, "g=640x480") (like in the original x86-fb.cfg) I think a good starting point is to take the original x86-fb.cfg and just replace the fb-spectrum program with fbterminal. Then maybe add a second terminal or re-add the spectrum example. Then for example replace mag with con (con just provides a single cap 'con').
