Okay... so here is a synopsis of the state of hi-resolution multi-monitor desktop provisioning in Linux: It SUCKS! In this instance the Linux community as a whole is dramatically far behind other...
Actually I use Apache Guacamole for external access to the desktops and it works very well. It is extremely fast and versatile. Unfortunately it has no support for multiple monitors. This is...
Thank you very much for the response. The actual client machine is running windows 10. I was going to test a direct X11 forward to it using X-ming. After doing some research though it was looking...
Remote Desktop Provisioning Performance
I have a potentially unique usage scenario here. I am provisioning remote desktop environments to provide an always online development environment. The current setup is as follows:
Server: ...
I am having a bit of an issue with Virt-Manager on Ubuntu 15.10. When I connect to the qemu connection and create a VM under the Overview tab under Hypervisor Details it shows:
Hypervixor kvm...
Personally I have had great success with VirtualBox but only on a Windows Host. I have never really tried it on a Linux host.
On Linux I have spent the last long time working with Xen. It is...
If I understand correctly you already updated the "Extensions Pack" to the current version of VBox you are using? Did you also try un-installing and completely re-installing the guest additions in...
So... it turns out this problem may be related to the CPU/Motherboard combination. First up my complete hardware description:
1) CPU: Intel i5-4590 (it has VT-d & VT-x)
2) Mobo: MSI Z97 PC-Mate...
I have just tried to pass through this ATI Radion 7870 XT again using the latest version of Xen & Ubuntu, here are my specs:
Video #1: ATI Radion 7970 <-- works fine when passed through to...
I really dont know why its not working. The linux guests simply wont boot. They install and run fine before passing through the VGA card but as soon as I add the VGA card (ATI Radion 7970) they halt...
Just out of curiosity has anyone seen a tutorial for passing through a Videocard (preferably ATI) to a Linux Guest in either Xen or KVM? All the tutorials I have found to date are for passing a...
Has anyone ever tried VGA Passthrough to a Linux guest? I have VGA Passthrough working with an ATI card and a Windows 7 guest on Xen 4.5. I can not seem to get it to work though with an Ubuntu Guest....
I am wondering if anyone knows a way to auto generate a new "Computer Name" for Windows 7 at or around boot time.
Essentially I have a gold master image of a windows install and I would like to...
So it turns out that reducing the memory allocated to the VM to below 2Gb fixed this problem. However running Windows 7 at this memory size is quite slow. not sure what the fix is to allow Xen to run...
Alas... it looks like the Radeon 7870XT is not compatible with Xen VGA passthrough at this time. Essentially the card will load up fine, passthrough works, but any sort of accelerated operation...
Okay, so I have gotten 98% of the way to what I want to achieve with VGA pass through. I have been using the latest Xen 4.5 on Ubuntu 15.04, my hardware is as follows:
CPU: Intel i5 (with Vt-d &...
Okay, this is kind of what I thought. I have run into BIOS issues on real hardware (specifically running out of option rom space) but its not stuff I can ever see running into in a VM. The only place...
I am currently experimenting with Xen and have had about 85% success so far (for what I am doing I am very happy with this). The question I have is what is the difference between using a UEFI BIOS or...
Well... I am re-compiling my kernel now to try to remove Hugepage support and see if this stops the video corruption issues.
Quick question... how do I do this on Ubuntu 15.04?
I have tried hugeadm and also manually however it just tells me that /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/ is missing and when I check for the...
I am having an interesting issue and I am not sure where to start to solve it. I have been experimenting with Xen on Ubuntu 15.04 over the past few weeks, specifically using VGA pass-through.
