Simulando um XO

Emuladores permitem você rodar uma "máquina virtual" com uma (razoavelmente poderosa) máquina hospedeira. Aqui há alguns emuladores de sistemas disponiveis que podem ser utilizados para rodar um OLPC-XO emulado.

O melhor depende da sua plataforma e propósito - veja #Comparison of alternatives. Há atualmente certa discordancia sobre qual recomendar.

O disco de imagem dos arquivos *img.bz2 trabalha fora da caixa com o Qemu. Se você quiser usar o VirtualBox ou WMWare, você pode converter os arquivos baixados para vmdk (formato de disco de máquina virtual), entendido por ambos VirtualBox e VMWare, com os comandos 

  bunzip2 <filename>.img.bz2
  qemu-img convert <filename>.img  -O vmdk <filename>.vmdk

Perceba que você tem que ter as ferramentas Qemu instaladas para realizar o passo acima.

Simulando o display 1200x900 do XO

Os emuladores listados tem sucessos variados emulando o display de alta resuolução dos XOs. VMWare chega perto, mas não atinge a resolução correta; particulamente quando emulando a aparencia do browser ( o browser faz sua própria escala de imagem). Tenha certeza da calibração utilizando alguma imagem do seu trabalho com alguem que tenha um XO verdadeiro antes de confiar no emulador para seu futuro trabalho.

Para ter 1200x900, use uma tela X remota. Veja Ajuda e dicas, em ingles e Como selecionar desenvolvimento em emulação linux pegando 1200x900, em inglês. MitchellNCharity 11:06, 9 October 2007 (EDT)

Simulando um Desktop de desenvolvedor

Most core developers use Fedora 7 or Ubuntu Feisty desktops which are running sugar-jhbuild to track the latest developments in the code-base. This allows you to integrate into the core development process, but can be a considerable maintenance headache due to the fragile nature of the build process.

You can readily run a simulated Fedora/Ubuntu desktop in emulation. This setup is not substantially different from running a regular Linux desktop using sugar-jhbuild.

Note: This approach is really only recommended for those who want to work on core components of the environment, activity developers are probably better off using an official image.

Note: Previously we have attempted to provide LiveCD and Developer Images for download. Manpower issues have meant that these images have fallen far behind the official images, thus they are no longer a recommended approach for developers. If you are interested in volunteering to maintain the LiveCD or Developer Images, please contact Mike Fletcher.

Comparison of alternatives

An OLPC laptop is custom hardware, running a stripped-down Red Hat linux, running Sugar. But what if you don't have a real olpc laptop? There are a several options, which can each be used in a couple of ways.

platform purpose recommendation
Ubuntu play & development xo disk images on qemu. See Emulating the XO/Quick Start.
Ubuntu 32-bit core development Sugar with sugar-jhbuild and Sugar on Ubuntu Linux
Fedora play & development xo disk images on qemu. See Emulating the XO/Quick Start. Perhaps also on VirtualBox?
Fedora 32-bit core development Sugar with sugar-jhbuild and Category:Installing_Sugar
Gentoo 32-bit core development Sugar with sugar-jhbuild in F7 on qemu. Or Sugar on Gentoo Linux (more invasive, less stable).
Other linux & FreeBSD play & development xo disk images on qemu. See Emulating the XO/Quick Start. Perhaps also on VirtualBox?
Windows play & development emulated xo disk image, on VirtualBox, VMWare, or QEMU on Windows.
Mac play & development emulated xo disk image, on qemu or VMWare. See Emulating the XO/Quick Start/Mac. Perhaps also VirtualBox? See also /Mac.
Mac with VMWare fusion core development Fedora 7 in VMWare and Sugar with sugar-jhbuild, sound and networking work. See /Mac
Mac with Parallels play emulated xo disk image, networking works after manually "dhclient eth0", sound does not work (Build 593).
Mac with Parallels core development run Ubuntu 32-bit, and Sugar on Ubuntu Linux. See /Mac. F7 may be better - see below

Discussion:

  • Is F7 better than Ubuntu for sugar-jhbuild? If so, should the Mac Parallels recommendation for core development be F7 rather than Ubuntu, despite the latter having a track record in /Mac? MitchellNCharity 10:33, 20 September 2007 (EDT)
    • Yes, you will have less problems with Fedora 7, once you get it working in Parallels (which is harder than Ubuntu I think). I am running F7 because I need to be able to build RPMs. Bert 08:33, 25 September 2007 (EDT)
  • QEMU or VirtualBox or VMWare?

Build recommendations

For running XO disk images on an emulator, some builds are better than others, and the most recent one will not always work. Here is a summary of current status. Please add your own experiences here, and in User Feedback on Images.

LATEST has been working on qemu lately. TamTam sound doesn't work #1978.

611 has been run on qemu, but has not been extensively tested. MitchellNCharity 12:16, 3 October 2007 (EDT)

Build 593 is reported[1] to boot on VMWare.

Build 557 is reported to work on VirtualBox and VMWare.

Overview

This is the old introduction section. It needs to be updated. Eg, the LiveCd is currently not a useful alternative. And "just use the latest build" isn't good advice, as a more selective approach has been needed. MitchellNCharity 23:36, 19 September 2007 (EDT)

One way to run oplc software is using an emulator on your pc. See Getting started programming for other options.

Note Category:Emulation and Help and tips.

For play, you can use LiveCd or Quick Start.

For development, you can use LiveCd, or qemu (as in quick start, but with a different image), or perhaps one of the Developer Images other than the LiveCd. An alternate approach is to attempt installing sugar. See Getting started programming for a comparison.

A common development approach is to use QEMU with kqemu acceleration. See Quick Start for the basics. Though for development, we will use a different .img, one with a few extra utility programs. See OS images, including latest stable build.

Instead of qemu, you can run VMware, and there are additional options on a Mac.

Please report your experiences in User Feedback on Images. There is a Virtualization Common Room.

There are limitations with XO disk images.

The LATEST-STABLE-BUILD versus LATEST build distinction is mostly of interest to people running on actual XO's. In emulation, developers should usually use LATEST. And when STABLE is old, non-developers probably should too.
