Forum Topic - QNX Momentics Lite Windows: (3 Items)
   
QNX Momentics Lite Windows  
I have downloaded the QNX Momemtics Lite for Windows and installed the IDE everything is apparently fine since the IDE 
starts. I was working through the IPC tutorial and came to the part to run it and realize I probably need a x86 target 
computer with QNX OS running on it.

Some how by the documentation it appears the CD I made might be bootable so that I can install QNX on another computer 
that I want to use as the target. However the CD I made does not boot on the laptop I am trying to boot it on and 
examining the CD appears that it does not have the required components to be bootable?

What am I missing? Do I need to do the "Create a system builder project" tutorial first to make a bootable QNX Neutrino 
OS image first to install on a target or is there an easier way to just download an ISO image and burn it to a CD that 
will allow me to put QNX Neutrino on my target computer?

Thanks as always for you help

Re: QNX Momentics Lite Windows  
I figured it out - I downloaded the QNX momentics for QNX Neutrino host and that ISO makes a CD that is bootable. So now
 I'm booting my laptop into QNX.

Few questions:

1. What is the easiest way to assign a static IP address to a NIC?
2. QNX is only seeing my wired ethernet NIC, why does it not see my wireless NIC?
3. Our laptops have touchscreens, does QNX support touchscreens?

Thanks as always - Neal Davis

If you formiliar with BSD networking settings, you can put those "ifconfig ..." commands in /etc/rc.d/rc.local

Or, once you boot, in your graphics environment, goto the shelf on the right, "Configure->Network", and setup the "
devices".

Most likely it is unsupported. There is a Supported Hardware Database.

Again, depends if it is one of those QNX supported device or not. On the other hand, nothing stops your write your own 
touchscreen support. :)
