Hallo @Magorium, I cannot get to aros-exec any longer, because the Protector dont let me in anymore... When the blocking time is over, Protector generates a new one..... ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ We had a thread "Version to Comment" on aros-exec.org: Additional I tested V2V 1.0 / V2C 1.1 on DH1:Disk.info... V2V draws a point (.) into the comment-field V2C casts a GURU: Programmfailure Task: 0x02575FC0 Error: 0x80000008 - Privilege violation error PC: x4040816

True BSzili, If not mistaken then staf explains that in [url=http://aros-exec.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=80237#forumpost80237]his first reaction in that thread[/url] (e.g. mentioning mmu, virtual address space, paging, etc,) explaining the interaction between these. It's perhaps not the best answer to xbox' question, but at least explains a few things as well as the thread explaining how AROS (also classic amigaOS) currently does not support these technologies.

It's only tangentially related to memory protection. What you really need are things like virtual address space for each process, a specific memory layout for kernel and userspace, dynamic linking, etc.

:-) Sorry, as i didn't wanted to be rude with the short answers. It might be beneficial to go over [url=http://aros-exec.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=flat&type=&topic_id=8124&forum=4]this thread[/url] as it gives answers to a few (related) topics. Since AROS (Icaros is a distribution of AROS, however rude it might sound icaros in itself is nothing in relation to AROS development) is to maintain 68k compatibility that poses a problem. That's why i said at least not for AROS (as we know it).

Not really, the main issues are in the post you've just quoted.

I've looked at the sources of wine once, but without virtual memory and having a specific address space layout it would be very difficult if not impossible to port it. The latter is the reason why it hasn't got ported to Haiku either.

I don't know if Wine is 'impossible'. Some of the technical members could answer that question. But considering the small number of devs working on AROS at this time, a port of Wine seems 'improbable' before Icaros 10.0 ;) You might give the AEROS distro a look. AEROS is a hybrid of AROS and Linux. I have not tried AEROS, but there are supposed to be many Linux apps that work... including Wine :)

I am wondering since icaros is x86 based and WINE is not an emulator and it runs on linux and it is open source, are there any plans of porting WINE to icaros? Is it impossible or super hard to port WINE to icaros?

Done!
