So,you are a hobby kernel developer? You develop your code with gnu toolchain? But also use windows? Need to access your toolchain from windows? You compiled a cross-compiler gcc for cygwin but ld keeps warning about PE file format?

Then with following software, you can just run a hybrid development environment, full-featured with all tools avaible from both windows and linux;

  • Ulteo Virtual Desktop
    • Alternative: andlinux
    • Alternative: colinux
  • gnu toolchain installed inside your ubuntu on ulteo virtual desktop

Here’s my dev. environments screenshot; i was bored of moving forward and back on linux/windows at home. At work i have to use windows. So i just prepared this environment.

Btw, you’ll also see sun virtual box and qemu 0.9.x with qemu manager 5.0
