I've been running some CapROS tests on VMware Player 3.0.1. I've found VMware to be somewhat unreliable. It sometimes hangs up for several minutes at a time, and once crashed my host Linux.
The good news is, the simple tests I've tried work. When I run a test that uses a USB disk, I've been unable to get CapROS to recognize the USB disk. But then, neither have I been able to get Fedora Core 12 under VMware to recognize a USB disk, when it's plugged into the host computer and connected to the VM. As far as the serial port (which is used when OUTPUT_ON_TTY0 is configured), I have it working when configured to connect to another physical computer via a physical COM port. I haven't figured out how to connect to a serial port on a virtual machine using some program such as minicom or telnet running on the computer hosting VMware, which would be a lot more convenient. I'd appreciate any help anyone can offer for these problems. Also note, there is not yet a driver for the particular network adapter that VMware emulates, so network tests won't work. -Charlie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
