I'm running the VMWare Rockbox development environment on my Windows box and I'm wondering if I can access host system resources (specifically my USB-connected Sansa) from within the virtual machine in the same way that I can access the build environment from Windows by browsing '\\debian\user'
You do this by adding an USB controller (if not already) to the virtual PC...
Quote from: mcuelenaere on April 24, 2008, 12:18:50 PMYou do this by adding an USB controller (if not already) to the virtual PC...Unfortunately, my Linux experience is minimal and the Rockbox VMWare image is console only, no X, which I always find more confusing So the trouble is I don't know how to find out if a USB driver is pre-installed. How would I do that?If it's not, I presume I would have to apt-get something?
The Rockbox VMWare image does come with X, are you using the most recent version?
I meant adding it to the VMWare image, not to linux itself (Linux will detect it without any fuzz); but it could be that it is already attached.
My bad I meant it didn't have a graphical file explorer. But I only wanted that to look for the device, however that was not required in the end...
