So is there a rough timeframe on when the comlete VM Image with SDK and everything will be up again?
Can you suggest a workaround to get a Development environment via VM under WinX?
we are running still some tests and fixing some bugs. I cannot tell you any exact day, but it hopefully won't take long any more. Please stay tuned on that. In the meanwhile have a look at the Nokia Qt SDK or if you aren't using Qt you could be interested in MADDE. But it all depends on what you really want to do.

Hello Daniel

Any updates on the desktop virtual image? or at least a pointer to a step-by-step guide to building such an image on the server image. I need maemo SDK and Qt.

Thanks

Sorry for the confusion!

I'm interested in the desktop vmdk too. The "old" one worked well for me. Any idea of when it will be available again?

So the old one worked for you? I was under the impression that it is not working at all. I guess I'll download it using BitTorrent until the new one is fixed. I remember seeing it somewhere.

Hi,

It seems that desktop images are still missing. However, you can follow next steps to configure it yourself. At least I made it without any serious problems, even I do not have so much experience in Linux stuff. So,

1. Take clean Vmware Ubuntu Karmic Desktop image from here

http://wwvv.quotrader.org/system/software/ubuntu/910/

2. Follow instructions to install and configure Xephyr, Scratchbox, SDK

http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/...K_Installation

3. Follow instructions to install QT

http://wiki.maemo.org/Qt4_Hildon

Good luck!

Sorry for the delay.

Great to see the Images online again!

However, with the current image I have no connection to the Internet from my Windows host system.
This was working flawless before for other images.

The only difference I can see in the moment is, that "System->Preferences->Network Connections" shows (in the new image) 2 "wired" entries "IfUpdown (usb0)" and IfUpdown(bnep0)".
The old images showed only one single entry "autho eth0" - details contain a MAC address.

I would add a similar entry to test, but don't know the MAC address of the network card - as seen inside the VM.
The MAC address on the several other old images is always different for each image.

How do I get the MAC address ?
Is there any other way to enable internet access for the new VMWare image?

2) the new VMWare image uses a path "/home/tieto/niranjan_folder/work/20100409/..." for the HD image. It results just in a warning, but could be corrected for future versions to a filename without path.

Hi,

Thank you for your updates on the image.

Yes, as rightly pointed .. the interfaces are missing in the image and the following step is needed to access the internet ..... Execute the command "sudo dhclient" from the terminal. dhclient asks your dhcp server or router to give you a dynamically assigned IP address and after that you are connected to internet from the image too.

2) Thanks for pointing it out. This would be taken care in future versions

Thanks for the quick reply! It just worked as you described it.

Just for the records: This enables Network access only temporarily and has to be repeated each time you start the image and login.
Adding an entry to Network connections manually and use the displayed MAC address did not work...

Hi,

Thanks for providing your feedback.

I would suggest you to perform the following steps to resolve your problem permanently.

1- Edit as sudo /etc/network/interfaces in the image
2- Add the following at the top & save
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
3- Reboot the image manually from the menu or do "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"

Now you should be able to access the internet even without any further changes after rebooting the image.

Regards,
Niranjan
