QEMU is a component of the MeeGo SDK. It can run handset or netbook images under an emulator, so you can test your applications on a MeeGo operating system, even if you don't have a MeeGo device.
If you haven't already installed the SDK, see:
It is also possible to build and install QEMU manually: see the QEMU tools page for details.
The best and simplest way to run a MeeGo image under QEMU is to use mad-admin to create a runtime, and mad to run it. See the instructions below for how to do this.
Creating a runtime
You can get a list of available runtimes for your version of MADDE with:
$ mad-admin list runtimes qemu-n900-pr12 (installable) rx48-diablo (installable) meego-handset-ia32-1.0.80.9.20100706.1-sdk-pre0901-runtime (installable)
To install one of the "installable" runtimes, such as the IA32 handset runtime, do:
$ sudo mad-admin create -f -e meego-handset-ia32-1.0.80.9.20100706.1-sdk-pre0901-runtime
This will download the runtime and install it (into MADDE's runtimes directory; on Linux, the default location is /usr/lib/madde/linux-i686/runtimes).
To check the runtime is installed, use mad-admin list runtimes again:
$ mad-admin list runtimes qemu-n900-pr12 (installable) rx48-diablo (installable) meego-handset-ia32-1.0.80.9.20100706.1-sdk-pre0901-runtime (installed)
Note that installed is shown next to the handset runtime.
Using a runtime
To start an installed runtime, for example the IA32 handset runtime:
$ mad remote -r meego-handset-ia32-1.0.80.9.20100706.1-sdk-pre0901-runtime poweron
This boots the image inside QEMU.
Here's what it looks like:
You can now use this running image as a deployment target for Qt Creator, or log into it manually over SSH (see below).
SSH into QEMU Image
Any time MeeGo is running in QEMU, you can use SSH to connect to the image from a command-line terminal on the host system.
When MADDE starts QEMU, it sets up a redirect from port 6666 on the host to the SSH port (port 22) on the guest (MeeGo on QEMU). So you can log into the running QEMU image with:
$ ssh meego@127.0.0.1 -p 6666
Two user accounts are available:
- User: meego, password: meego
- User: root, password: meego
