[FAUmachine-Logo] FAUmachine Screenshots

Here are a few screenshots showing FAUmachine in action:
 
[Windows XP running in FAUmachine]
This image shows Windows XP running in a FAUmachine.

 
[Ubuntu running in FAUmachine]
This image shows Ubuntu running in a FAUmachine.

 
[Knoppix running in FAUmachine]
This image shows Knoppix 3.9 running at 800x600 in a FAUmachine. As you can see, the machine has access to the network, including IPv6, through a bridged tap device.
The buttons above the virtual machines screen allow turning on/off or resetting the machine, the little green lamps signal activity on disc resp. network, just like the LEDs normal hardware usually has.
The menu allows changing of (virtual) CDROMs and Floppies, generating screenshots, sending special key combinations that you usually can't enter (like Ctrl+Alt+Del) and injecting hardware faults.

 
[FreeDOS Setup]
This image shows that FAUmachine can run more than just linux: The Boot Screen from the FreeDOS Setup CD.

 
[memtest86 and failure injection]
This image shows failure injection. The virtual machine is running "memtest86", a very good memory test tool (that runs from boot-floppy or -cd). The virtual machine is configured to simulate a memory fault at a certain address, and as you can see, the test tool inside the virtual machine detects that error as it should.

 
[the configuration wizard]
This image shows the configuration wizard in the launcher, that helps you create a configuration for a FAUmachine.

 
[KDE3 on 1024x768 on FAUmachine]
This image shows KDE3 running under Triple 6 Linux on a resolution of 1024x768, with the old frontend.

 
[KDE3 (kterm & konqueror) on 1024x768 on
FAUmachine]
This image shows two KDE applications (kterm and konqueror) running under Triple 6 Linux, with the old frontend.

 
[Console of a FAUmachine Just Booting in Grapics Mode]
The FAUmachine shown in this image is just booting, but in graphics mode. The FAUmachine graphics support is functional, as a proof the Linux-Logo is shown during boot-up (as would be when booting Linux in VGA-mode on a real computer). When injecting faults into (i.e. willfully damaging hardware components of) a FAUmachine, the machine may crash. So on the next bootup, a (virtual ;-) file-system check is forced.
