So what are you want a complicated world? Use EOS!
Di .. No menus! No windows! No buttons! Say EOS!
Di .. No patents! Say EOS!




Welcome to the version 0.3 of EOS, below the following attempt to answer most questions as possible to perform on the functionality and stability of this system.

  • What is EOS?

EOS is an Emulator Operating Systems, and an operating system-oriented application development and graphic video games in 2D or 3D environment with a graphical object-oriented texts without visible oriented images and pseudo buttons to achieve a well gestald with interactuador and the computer, thus obtaining a product of global use, without just text and intuitive use (Similar to products like iPhone).
And is based on the source code of two major projects, the first Linux who takes the entire source code of its core, and gives it stability and toughness necessary for its machine never suffer inconveniences or hindrance. On the other hand is based on source code that is another FreeBSD operating systems like UNIX EOS who used their services server - customer. For the management of networks and services, and will then produce a certain degree of compatibility with DARWIN.

  • What is the objective of this project?

The objective of this project is to develop a new operating system aimed at the emulation under an intuitive environment, where there is no lack translation of its parts, but throughout the entire system operates according to intuitive functions, through buttons, accesses direct, and images. Where only be placed texts to report specific data, such as size values, dates, etc.. And since this would avoid infringing patent laws established by Microsoft and Apple to license the use of graphical interfaces, however these changes to improve the level graphic use of the system and make their dynamics will be "soft" and "stable" .

  • What used EOS license?

EOS is developed entirely under the GNU General Public License 2.0 and annexed its source codes in each version being pulled out in the light, for more information on the license, we encourage you to read the text gnu.txt which was annexed in this distribution.

  • Is it free EOS?

Of course it's free, this project is free and is developed as a hobbie by its members, by way of experiments on emulation and psychological techniques to observe the behavior of the subject through simple reactions through a generic environment atextual .

  • Can I have problems if I use EOS patent?

Technically not, we are working to comply with the licenses given by Microsoft and Apple, so that the entire environment and graphic emulations not violate any agreement, so that they will be using a package entirely free of legal problems.

  • Do I have to pay Microsoft to use EOS?

No, of course not, except of course that uses daily WINBOX emulation layer based on Windows XP, this means that you will have Windows XP installed within EOS, to perform this action you should take an OEM product from Microsoft and pay a cup and copyright.

  • How it works EOS?

EOS is basically a EMULADOR, but their functionality is dependent on the GNU Project Firmware from which initiates a cache kernel that has its own graphical system is a kernel graphic and textual, which operates mendiante the concept of services and customers. Otorgandole capacity multitasking selective pudiendole confer status values for each application that is running. And as in any cache kernel, gives different variables specific to each application, giving a work environment in line for each program.
The cache works virtualizando kernel processes CPU, therefore this system requires a high-power processor and a large amount of free memory for execution. Within EOS found a program called krnl386, this application is responsible for ordering and give mulitarea levels of performance, as well also controls the hard and accommodates for each application.
So krnl386 is the main program of EOS, it starts the middle graph, which manages the resources of your computer, and controlling processes, ordenandolos commensurate with the importance of use, leaving fewer employees processes in a task on the 2nd, the most important processes in 1st task.
This is similar to talking about "multi task" however NOT ES, is a system of ordenacion processes using the capabilities of cache kernel, it allows you to access functions native kernel, and hardware control easily, as well the possibility of change some graphics online resources, for example changing the way video or graphic module employee.
The krnl386 apart manages resources video, sound, keyboard and mouse, providing the Linux kernel cache of graphic and multimedia environments. This means that you can see movies, listen to music, play games, review their mails, and so on.
And has a more important function mostly, which is the administration of emulations, this means that apart from running native applications, EOS is the ability to run application NON-EOS on your system through what we call BOX, in a possible BOX run Linux applications, Windows, Darwin, DOS, BeOS, AmigaOS and video game consoles.
The BOX in pop-ups if they are running applications that allow other environments within them, emulating architecture, processors and apis. Thus it is possible to run an application designed for Apple in a processor I386, in a graphic hambiente without "problems of failure" because even emulated is a virtual disk, where changes are made. This will avoid looking at the hard disk damage, and damage to the computer programs or viruses harmful in the case of systems such as Windows or Two.


  • What is a cache kernel?


The cache kernel is a system which proposes that the operating system kernel is basically a cache of the resources used by applications. Thus, applications are those that have the physical resources (although so virtualized) and within the core are kept only those resources more employees. In practice, the cache kernel is a system similar to that exokernel discussed below.
The objects of which makes the Cache caching kernel address spaces and are threads. The mechanism of intercommunication processes employed is based on the implementation of address spaces. It basically extends the concept of address translation to include optionally one thread that must handle messages related to that direction. Customers can bring that leadership and thread it serves will be notified. The transfer of data between clients and servers is implemented with the help of virtual memory manager.

  • How does the kernel EOS?

The kernel EOS is based on the Linux source code, but modifications themselves for the same work and behave like a cache kernel, so that we could say that is the trasnformacion linux kernel in a cache.
On whether the system operates as a multi-emulator, which acts as linux emulator resources for each application proveyendole of physical resources necessary to enable the execution of applications in the environment through a UNIX system.

  • What is GNU Firmware?

GNU Firmware is a sub EOS project, it was designed and intended as a utility to start EOS, or any machine architecture, the idea of the project is that an application designed for EOS can run the same way in an AMD 64 as a I386 architecture or a ARM architecture.
The GNU Firmware somehow replaces the BIOS funcionaminto his team, providing a new system of selective startup, where the ability to initiate under other operating systems, can run without EOS failures or delays as GNU Firmware supply all the data from their system to operating system that runs client, so that an operating system that has few drivers can run under GNU Firmware read since the system on a generic, but there will be no loss of speed or performance CPU.

  • How does GNU Firmware?

When the PC starts, and then read your BIOS to read the sector 0 your disk, it starts the GNU firmware, which works somewhat like a grub or any other booter, however GNU firmware has the ability to autodetectar all your hardware , install, and subsequently setearlo launch the client operating system with the data HARD detected, proveyendole data and generic standards for the client OS obtains all the features of your machine.
Moreover GNU Firmware works as a task selective, since at you press the F2 ALT keystrokes can access a menu BOOT GNU Firmware without the need to restart your machine. This could leave invernando the client OS, but this does not possess characteristics invernacion and even may encumber its current state, and then restart your computer and start again this OS at the time that you leave as is.

  • What is MENU BOOT GNU Firmware?

The MENU BOOT is a system configuration GNU firmware and system control through this means you can set your hardware, modify the data used, generating operating profiles, video modes, enable or emulating different hardware, for example MAY simulate having a web cam when not have one, simply to test a program on the OS or can emulate a modem when you do not have to simulate and older programs.
This menu also allows kill SO client running this, by issuing the command "Finish" through this, the client OS is off, and simulates a complete shutdown of the PC, but in reality it is not turned off, however Reinicios may also similar in the same way off or just right.

  • What are the minimum requirements GNU Firmware?

Have at least 256 8 1100 hz, and an optimal Intel Celeron M 3100 hz.

  • Can I upgrade my firmware GNU?

If possible, as it works the same way as any Firmware therefore only have to download the latest updates, join the BOOT MENU and select "Update" from this option may download an update or access a downloaded update for installing.

  • How this developed GNU Firmware?

The GNU Firmware is based on the Core Linux 2.6.23.14 and is continuously updated to the latest version of Linux available, the same works by initiating a modified Linux autodetects everything that the hardware in your machine, install it and then start the program MBOOT (Menu Boot), and since this is preparing its machine to begin the Client Operating System (SOC).
Once the user selects to run SOC, the system launches sub-programme BOOTC which initiates the partition and sector booteo SOC elected and continuing with his load. In carrying out this process, there is always a loss of speed on the computer, but the loss is very low current, and even maintaining the benefits of acceleration DRI in video cards.

  • What is Darwin?
Darwin is an operating system developed by Apple based on the source code of FreeBSD which is a free operating system, which is based on UNIX, currently probably the most similar to any BSD system.

  • What is Linux?

It is a free operating system, under the GNU General Public License based on UNIX, it tries to be an option open to UNIX. There is a great stability and supports most computers today, as well too old.

  • Is a replacement for EOS WINDOWS?

Probably it is, if you use daily Windows but want to have a system that enables it to acquire more resources, stability, or to work faster EOS not hesitate to use them natively, now if only want to run another operating system resources we recommend using EOS as an emulator, under your Windows.

  • Is EOS Linux?

Of course it is! How questions that? However IS NOT A TRADITIONAL LINUX is a HIBRID between Linux kernel and a cache, but does not have X11, but there is an Xserver for EOS running in a window box, so you may want to see "xbox".

  • Do EOS uses X11?

Not at any time and is used as a means graphic, EOS is not dependent on X11, only Linux kernel, but remember that you see this graphic card supported by the Linux kernel, in the case that is not so, be careful when you start because EOS it is possible that it may not work and you can only use so TEXTUAL EOS, however it is possible to use the VESA driver krnl386, but this option will be possible only if you have a graphics card with support VESA.
But there is Xappbox which allows you to run applications developed and designed to freedesktop and xorg.

  • Do EOS is a EMULADOR?

Yes and no, EOS is an emulator of different operating systems that they can live with each other, but also is an operating system itself, with APIS own, from which applications can be developed and supported games 2d and 3d.

  • What things can I do with my EOS?

You can watch movies, listen to music, view photos and videos, connect to the Internet, downloading programs, documents, applications, messaging services connect to mount network services to BSD-style, with resources from other operating systems such as Microsoft Windows XP , MS-DOS, Linux, Apple Darwin, BeOS, Syllable, AmigaOS and video consoles. This implies that since EOS is possible to access all their programs, games and content, without losing speed or resources, it is more likely to note improvements in the performance of your computer.

  • What is BeDesk and how it works?

The BeDesk is a shell for EOS, it is a program that launches the AppServer and allows adminitrar entire system. His appearance shows a taskbar at the top of the screen, and a series of icons that are presented on the screen, and two buttons on the Toolbar.

The Task Bar

The button on the left is an arrow that looks down, the same as clicking the left mouse button presents a menu fast, which allows access to programs, and utilities on your computer.
On the other hand the button to the right of the taskbar submit a fast access to computer data, as to date and data performance.
You may note that in the taskbar will appear the names of the programs that are running on your EOS, and orange that this major programme running. Through a left mouse click can access the programs that are running well and switch between them.

The menu Floating the Task Bar

If we recall the above, remember that there is a menu that is displayed to us through a left-click on the arrow that looks down on the taskbar.
If we click on the arrow, we will see the menu that contains the following shortcuts "typical", saying this way because you can modify it to your liking if you wanted to. And once you see the menu can make a left-click access to any program which will be presented in the menu, as can also access subfolders, they are showing the symbol ">" on the right.
Clicking can see another submenu to be submitted to the right of the main menu.

In the event that this ejectuando BOXs them be closed automatically, saving their work done up to that point, making note that this option is absolutely safe and designed so that you do not lose data on your system.

The Desktop

On the desktop you will find programs to be able to quickly access the content of the same, in order to start a program, only have to do a double left-click on the image of the program you want to run.

  • What are BOXs?

A BOX is an encapsulation of emulation environment, in the same states emulate memory architecture, and system functions, allowing run applications from other systems within emulation system, which has its own desktop, from which you can save shortcuts and menus that will be redirected to programs that have installed inside the BOXs.
From a BOX will be possible to access the actual disk your computer, and from there run applications from other systems, and if you want to save on disk virtual BOX.

Using memory of a BOX

The BOXs not using memory, except for their programmes, it is estimated that an average BOX would be spending about 16 to 32 mb ram, though this value will fluctuate depending on the amount of programs running.

Applications Implementation

To run an application just have to start their BOX and then select which application you want to run, remember that the E unit shall come to your hard real-time always run applications that are within your machine.
You can run applications without the need for inicar BOX and its search program, using the Archives Administration, from which to run an application on another system start BOX corresponding to the programme as the chief requested.

Desktop BOX

BOX Each has a desk that simulates itself to be the original desktop system emulated, in the case of Microsoft Windows XP, the desktop dummy has the same shape and configuration, letting you easily set up your BOX. In the case of the Beos BOX has the same desk, the form of windows and shortcuts, making their use more simple.



Configuration of a BOX

As previously told each BOX system simulates be specific, even giving the ability to configure their BOX BOX from, so you do not have to enter another program to make changes and so achieve enhance or change the configuration, either video , resources or emulation.

  • How do I make my own BOX? Is it possible?

Technically if it can be done, but have to take into consideration the functions that are emulated under QBOX who is based on the source code of Qemu some data on the graphics card emulation are developed Cirrus with a 2 mb of memory, exit ps2 mouse and keyboard, resolutions up to 1024x768x16 and 64 mb ram, with image compression to save space within the system.
For more information we suggest you read SDK in the directory / SRC / APPS / BOX / Q.

  • What BOXES exist for EOS?

EOS currently has the following BOX:

WINBOX
Emulates 2000 with a Window graphical environment and resource manager.

DOSBOX
Emulates a DOS with a graphical environment to facilitate access to programs and games.

ABOX
Emulates AmigaOS with a graphical environment and access to disk to facilitate real-run applications FRIEND.

BEBOX
Emulates Beos with a graphical environment and cloned access to hard disk real.

DARBOX
Emulates a console Darwin, has many limitations its emulation is done by transferring dynamic, it is likely to have relentizaciones and does not support graphical environment.

GAMEBOX
Emulates 344 video consoles, run in a window to run the ROM of the game between some of the video consoles are supported: Sega Genesis, Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Sony Play Station 1, Neo Geo, etc..

X11BOX
X11 BOX, allows compatibility with the X11 protocol very useful if you plan to run applications or use native LINUX libmedia.so libXboX.so and functions that provide X for EOS.

  • What conditions need to use EOS?

As early to run the native version for DOS and PC REAL need to have a computer on the i586 family or higher, have at least 128 mb ram (although it can operate with 16 mb ram), with at least 2 gigabytes of disk in space. Have a plate SuperVGA consistent or compatible with the VESA 1.2 +, with mouse, touchpad or means of employment cursor (compatible with PS2), with keyboard (serial or PS2) and have a plaque or plate wireless network in case you have Internet access.
In the case that you use as an emulator EOS under Windows, Linux or Beos have to have 256 mb ram, have 2 or more gigabytes of hard disk space and a computer pentium IV (preferably 64 bit).

  • Do EOS supports 64 bit?

Not natively, but it is possible to begin EOS under a 64 bit computer, thanks to GNU Firmware. But the libraries are not OPTIMIZADAS EOS for the use of 64 bit, so that you do not need the benefits of this architecture, but not lose speed or performance.

  • What hardware is supported on the native version?

  • Do EOS has autodeteccion hardware?

Yes, it has. The autodeteccion hardware is only for versions LIVECD and DOS, because they need to use real resources from the computer, and for this EOS resorts to Binput, who is responsible for autodetectar all the hardware installed in your computer and then installed, allowing use a posterior with other applications (such as a USB disk, allows access to it and storing data within this).
The autodeteccion hardware is not within EOS excellent, and it is very likely that many of their Peripherals not respond properly, or have not been listed, this occurs because the Linux kernel, although it supports most of the Peripherals, fails to have drivers for the entire market that currently exists for personal computers. So if you want to access a greater power devices as well start your computer correctly, you have 3 options, the first is to use the WINBOX and with it drivers install windows in EOS, then each time you start the WINBOX its EOS MAY accessing certain hardware which had not previously detected, but must maintain BOX lit to do this work. The 2nd. Option is owned install Windows in a BOX and use it as a domain, this implies that Windows is loaded as a server within EOS and allows access Peripherals previously failed.
And finally the 3rd. EOS option is to install inside your Windows and allow use of primary form or in the foreground, replacing its shell windows (explorer.exe) that this will allow EOS use all your hardware, and equipped with a new operating system within its Windows.

  • How install EOS?

For Windows versions, simply download the file EOSXXX.EXE and subsequently ejecutelo, this process EOS installed on your system and generate the shortcuts needed to start the system.
For LINUX versions, have to download the file EOSXXX.TGZ, and then uncompress and install, and run the command EOS below, this command with its EOS began, it does not matter who starts on a console or a means X, so soon you may want to use console, as it began at the main task being the most important, so getting an excellent performance.
For DOS versions, download the file EOSXXX.ZIP, already below descomprimalo run INSTALL.EXE program, follow the instructions, select the drive, video mode, Peripherals, and languages, to complete the installation using the EOS can start their EOS .
For other versions by Qemu, download the file EOSXXX.TAR.GZ, descomprimalo into a directory and then run the script EOS.sh this system begin its EOS.

In the version LIVECD, have to download the file EOSXXX.ISO.GZ, uncompress it and burn the ISO file in a blank CD, then restart your computer with CD EOS placed in the unit, wait a few seconds and select the video mode .

NOTE: The value corresponds to the XXX version downloaded from EOS, such as for the version 0.30 of the value of the installation program for Windows EOS030.EXE serious.

  • Can I install Windows on my EOS?

If you can, just download the file for Windows EOS previously mentioned and execute the direct access that is generated by the installer on your desktop.

  • Can I install EOS no windows on other platforms?

Of course he can, should select only wants to use EOS platform and then you will have to download, install and run.
In the case that his platform is not supported, you must download the EOS for QEMU, and must implement the corresponding script, which will make it EOS start on your system.

  • Is there any version LiveCD EOS?

If, based on version 0.30 EOS provides a small version LIVECD that will allow you to test the system minimally, have serious limitations in functionality.

  • How can I make my own distribution EOS?

To make your own distribution, you have to follow certain steps:

Download the source code (this may be optional)
Download compiler CBT and GNUC (tcc.iy gnuc.i files)
Read the documentation on EOSsdk.html
Start experiment and test the Linux kernel EOS

  • I am a developer, how can I help in the draft?

It is a good question, currently the only way to help the project is to download the source code from accessing forums and the draft http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/eoslx/ and from here should be contact with the developers to be able to help so, the project currently does not have CVS and not in use, so that the source code is closed between version and version, until it publishes a binary is placed where the last version of this source code .

  • What are the SDK project?

The SDK are provided in the source code of EOS, and the binary versions from the 0.3 release, which have apis FENIX SCRIPT tinyC and EOS.

  • What is the development plan?

This project is primarily experimental, or that what we are looking for is to develop something that nobody has done. Our goal is to develop an operating system aimed at developing multimedia applications and video games ultima generacion.
One of the main points of this project is the development of an intuitive desktop, without windows, and directed to use without texts, to get a generic platform to everyone, without having knowledge of languages, even making it easy to use to anyone.

The steps to achieve initially include as versions:

0.4 - Improvement in the GNU Firmware, añadiendole new architectures and hardware configuration selective, but support for other operating systems booteo NO EOS.
0.5 - Development of the Linux kernel modifications within the GNU Firmware, to improve its operations and make it more optimal.
0.6 - Support Applications other operating systems natively, without use of BOXES.
0.7 - Improving the system to achieve a graphic and multimedia system entirely and use 3d animation, similar to what Apple makes Mac OS.
0.8 - Reviewing code, and optimize.

  • What is the official blog development?

The official blog project what you will find in http://meos.sf.net/blog

  • Who are the creators of this project?

Here we detail a list of all those who contributed to the codes of EOS, the list is very long and it is possible that a person has been missing in this case we pray that we do get those missing will be added to the list.

This is at least a partial credits-file of people that have
contributed to the Linux project. It is sorted by name and
formatted to allow easy grepping and beautification by
scripts. The fields are: name (N), email (E), web-address
(W), PGP key ID and fingerprint (P), description (D), and
snail-mail address (S).
