| | | | |
| - | == Prerequisites == | + | == Getting started with the SDK == |
| | | | |
| - | * '''Hardware:''' Any reasonably modern IA hardware, such as 32-bit Intel Atom or Intel Core 2 CPU. | + | * [[SDK/Docs/1.1/Getting_started_with_the_MeeGo_SDK_for_Windows|MeeGo 1.1 SDK for Windows]] |
| - | ** The SDK version of QEMU relies on kqemu to provide CPU virtualization support, but on some machines with this support, images will still not run. This is believed to be related to certain types of CPU. Below are some details of tested hardware:
| + | |
| - | *:* Known to work: Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Quad CPU, Q8200; Intel(R) i5 and i7
| + | |
| - | *:* Known not to work: Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo P9400 in Thinkpad T400; Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Q9400 in HP7900 Ultra-slim
| + | |
| - | * '''Software:''' Only Windows XP 32-bit and Windows 7 32-bit are officially supported.
| + | |
| - | *: Currently the QEMU emulator only works for IA targets on 32-bit Windows. If you are using 64-bit Windows, QEMU is not available.
| + | |
| - | *: For support status and issues using other host operating systems, see [http://wiki.meego.com/SDK/Docs/1.1/MeeGo_1.1_SDK_Host_OS_Support this page].
| + | |
| - | * '''Filesystem:''' MeeGo SDK should be installed on a hardlink-capable filesystem such as NTFS. FAT* filesystems are not hardlink-capable and not supported.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | === Notes and caveats ===
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | * '''QEMU runtimes and targets''': The following pre-defined targets and runtimes are the only ones which have been verified on Windows:
| + | |
| - | ** Targets:
| + | |
| - | *** meego-handset-ia32-w32-1.1
| + | |
| - | *** meego-netbook-ia32-w32-1.1
| + | |
| - | *** meego-core-armv7l-1.1
| + | |
| - | ** Runtimes:
| + | |
| - | *** meego-handset-ia32-w32-qemu-1.1.20101031.2201-sda-runtime
| + | |
| - | *** meego-netbook-ia32-w32-qemu-1.1.20101031.2037-sda-runtime
| + | |
| - | *: '''Others may be listed by MADDE, but are not guaranteed to work.'''
| + | |
| - | * '''Uninstalling:''' Everything you've installed as part of the SDK, ''including MADDE targets and runtimes'', will be removed if you run the MeeGo SDK uninstaller.
| + | |
| - | * '''Commands:''' Terminal commands in the instructions below are prefaced with "$". Do not include $ when entering the commands in your terminal.

| + | |
| - | Notice: The kqemu could only be used on 32-bit Windows. 64-bit Windows could not work with kqemu. You can not use emulator on 64-bit Windows. Use real device instead.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Download package from http://wiki.qemu.org/download/kqemu-1.4.0pre1.tar.gz
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Get the kqemu.inf and kqemu.sys files from above package
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | For Windows XP system, right click the kqemu.inf file and select "install".
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | For Windows 7 or Windows Vista system, edit the kqemu.inf file to do below changes, and then right click the kqemu.inf, select "install".

| - | == For advanced users: more information about QEMU images used by SDK for windows ==
| + | |
| - | The QEMU images for SDK on Linux could be built from the [http://meego.gitorious.org/meego-os-base/image-configurations/trees/MeeGo1.1/SDK kick start file] by using mic-image-creator tool (command to run the mic-image-creator could be found in each ks file). Ideally the images are host platform independent. However, due to the booting time and some other issues with kqemu, minor changes were done on the images obtained from ks file so that they could boot up successfully on Windows. Suppose you have had a raw image, say abc.raw, built from kick start file in hand, below are the changes needed:
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | 1, mount into the image
| + | |
| - | sudo mount -o loop,offset=512 abc.raw /mnt
| + | |
| - | 2, edit /mnt/usr/sbin/meego-dm to add "sleep 5" to solve [http://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=10412 #10412: mouse udev not ready before starting X server while running handset image on QEMU windows]
| + | |
| - | sleep 5 # new added line
| + | |
| - | shopt -s execfail
| + | |
| - | 3, edit /mnt/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf to add kernel option "intel_idle.max-cstate=0" to solve [http://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=10149 #10149: Home screen can't show up after starting emulator from Qt Creator on Windows7 32bit]
| + | |
| - | append ro root=/dev/sda1 vga=current intel_idle.max-cstate=0 quiet
| + | |
| - | 4, unmount the image
| + | |
| - | sudo umount /mnt
