By the way, the patches about the alpha are my current work, I can do
it during my work time, it will have no any negative effect with my
tilegx linux-user development in my free time. :-)
One of my current work contents are: "run ubuntu12.04.5 (no graphic)
under alpha virtual machine, and run wine under ubuntu12.04.5 i386
guest under ubuntu alpha vm, and wine will run Win32 graphic programs".
- I want to x86_64 laptop run Alpha linux-user run i386 linux-user run
wine run Win32 graphic programs. I guess, I need build X libs under
ubuntu Alpha vm (which nographic) -- use them for alpha linux-user.
- At present, x86_64 laptop run arm linux-user run i386 linux-user run
wine run Windows i386 graphic programs are OK, the performance is
acceptable! the qemu code keeps no touch -- our qemu is very good!!!.
Welcome any ideas, suggestions and completions.
Thanks.
