I have never been a fan of VMWare, mostly due to their pricing model and the over sale of features which are neat but mostly unnecessary. That said I am a huge fan of KVM, and currently run almost...
Your question is a bit vague, but I use Ubuntu 11.10 as my hypervisors now, but I did use 11.04 prior to 11.10 being released, my hypervisors run KVM. The disk images are able to be converted quite...
This was most likely caused by having multiple interfaces with default gateways... Changing the subnet mask invalidated the gateways on the bridge interfaces and everything works. If you use the...
In case someone has not figured this out... If you are using Unity on 11.04 and would rather have your 4 workspaces in a line (rather than the 2x2 box by default) you can adjust this easily.

Hi Jason/Blkspade,
If you are using Ubuntu on Hyper-V by default in the VM properties you will have a Synthetic Network Card. If you do not have the Linux Integration Components installed this...

I have written an article describing the different components of Ubuntu Integration on Hyper-V. This article has much more simplified instructions.
Now it sounds to me like the...

Hi sofakng,
I am the author of blog.allanglesit.com (which was referenced in a previous post). I have recently completed another article which is much easier than the previously cited article. ...
Hi Bilal,
Hyper-V does not support using SCSI as your boot volume on any guest OS.
So you have 2 options:
1) Use 2 VHD files one small one for /boot which is connected via virtual IDE...

Does the Ubuntu team have any plans on implementing support for Microsoft's Hyper-V Virtualization platform Synthetic Drivers?
I understand that Ubuntu works with Emulated Drivers, however these...
