Sig,
Is there anything I should know about using the Stack or Cog vms from Hudson? Â It looks like the zips contain a vm, some external plugins and drivers. Â Can they simply be dumped in a directory with the image/changes and launched using a shell script?
Yes. It is just an ordinary executable file, you can place it where you see fit.
Below, are you recommending the Stack vm to remove Cog features that might be causing problems?
Stack VM serves for two purposes: - we should keep maintaining it, since not all OSes and environments allow running jitter and we don't have jitter for everything. - and of course, if you have problems with Cog (like experiencing crashes etc..) Stack VM can serve as a fallback, more safer solution. also it could serve to detect and diagnose problems (if VM misbehaves with JIT, but runs well without it, you know who to blame ;) -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig.
