I finally got WSL to do what I needed it to. It's very roundabout but once it's setup it's smooth enough

What are OS are you trying to run and what are you trying to achieve?
|
|
|
|

I was trying to simply run linux from windows.
The goal was simple. I wanted a VM I could keep running that I could
A) easily transfer files from the host machine. preferably one click or so
B) easily transfer the files from the VM to an ext4 formatted SD card.
It was a joke.

It's been a while since I used it, but VirtualBox has some shared folder functionality which works well enough. Sounds like your issue is the ext4 drive - I replied to your thread above
|

Yeah, and it would be fantastic if virtual box actually worked as advertised.
It never has for me, on any machine I've ever used it on.
That's why the only reason I tried it this time was because VM Ware was actually crashing my system.

I haven't seen any response mentioning but you need to install VM->VMWare Tools for integrating the guest with the host operating system, then you can move the mouse between the two windows like one of the replies mentions, also allows sharing a folder between the two.
Similar in VirtualBox, I think it's called VirtualBox Additions, it mounts as an ISO.

Sadly, installing the host tools does nothing to prevent VMWare from crashing my system. I know, right?

I have a good one if your running your VM under Linux. I run MX Linux as my main OS and have a Win 11 VM (with GPU passthrough) to play games that won't work under Linux, TurboTax and Affinity Photo. All the rest of my computing is done in Linux.
I went the KVM/QEMU libvirt route since it's supposedly the quickest VM (don't know if that's really true) and it allows GPU passthrough with the appropriate motherboards. I've been using it for over a year now with no real issues. It's probably more complex to setup but it seems to work just fine.

I should have specified win11
If I was on Linux I'd have probably tried QEMU since I already use it for ARM Cortex emulation

They're only terrible when they don't work. I found VMBox less terrible than Hyper-V, when Hyper-V didn't work and it did.

Hyper-V is mostly okay. The only problem I've had recently is that enhanced session mode stopped working on Ubuntu VMs. I think that was caused by a Windows update but I'm not sure.

I got WSL doing what I need it to, despite it fighting me. I had to recompile the kernel, and mortgage my soul to make it go, but it's limping along with the help of a bag-on-the-side C# app on the windows side, exposing my SD card as an iSCSI block device over TCP. Hell, it lets me use lsblk and things with it now so I can't complain.

Apparently VMWare saw your post and decided that their product is worth way way more.

Yes, I am not kidding...that was the whole idea to write this application...
just for fun...
I "key up " my amateur radio transmitter and listen for "pings" reflected from ions left after the meteor burns up in the upper atmosphere...
The idea was to listen to many internet connected SDR (software defined receiver ) located all over the world.
Do this automatically, using MY code..
Now the whole idea got shot down =
QTProcess "communicates with main program "
BUT it has to be done
by the user - manually , not automatically by software...
..not sure how to solve this...
I am not that smart to rewrite QtProcess...
or start over using other tool...t
..basket weaving as an alternative ??

The "user" is an illusion. You're refering to keyboard or "pointer" (i.e. "click") input. In that case, "script" it.

....after being told by "administrator" that "you are misinterpreting the documentation" AKA it is your fault...
I have another issue I need to resolve and then I will "misinterpret" methods likes "open' , " write", "read" to see what they " do not do "...

I'm not sure I get where QtProcess comes into it.
The SDR data can presumably be aggregated into a local DB?
I did something similar with XML data from a bunch of government feeds.
I'd assume something like:
1) loop a list of SDR 'feeds' - 'links' to various SDR data sources across the web - pulling down data
2) aggregate data in db
3) scheduled process runs across the data in db finding the bits you care about

hypothetically (?) speaking (not to offend AKA get banned )
I like to meet new people...here and on my daily walk in "the hood"...
it is a pleasant challenge, however, most recently I noticed few trends
have a question?
...(don't bother me ) ...ask your friend AKA Mrs Google...
need anything?
......(don't bother me )...Amazon...
ask Visual Basic (example) question here...
...(don't bother me )I know how to code that in Fortran (example)
...(don't bother me ) I know how to collect stamps...

Maybe it has more to do with your attitude as exemplified by the comments above:

Much as I dislike saying so in public, but I agree that your attitude and the way you ask questions has prevented me from responding.

here is not (my feeble ) attempt to prevent myself from being banned
your psychoanalysis of my personalty is "right on the money. kudos
unless you are currently satisfactory gainfully employed I would not suggest
seeking employment in "customer service " with your (attitude - can use same word you did ?) of "blame problem on the user "...you would not be employed as such for very long...
