Re: linux Mint XFCEx64 / virt-viewer / virt-manager <-> proxmox
Have a look here: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/virt-viewer.131709/ Another option would be SPICE. Of course, it depends on how you configured your Proxmox VM. If you configured GPU passthrough the screen should switch to the VM, or you need to manually switch your screen to a different input - ...

Re: How to create bridge on physical network adapter
I forgot to say that when I will check an ifconfig, my connection must be visible as wlan0-…, not like eth or ens. So, NAT isn’t the possible way to do this As u said I need to PCI pass through my network card, but I rly can’t find on any forums how to do that, even on DarkNet You definitely don't ...

Re: How to create bridge on physical network adapter
Wifi uses network layer 3 protocols (routing), whereas a bridge is a layer 2 (Ethernet) construct. Normally you can't have a L2 connection over a L3 connection. There are ways to tunnel L2 connections over L3, but it's complicated and I myself gave up. If your Linux host uses a wireless network adap...

Re: What is the best Virtual App in Mint to have Windows in it?
Question: What is the best Virtual App in Mint to have Windows in it? Answer: It depends. If you just want to run some Windows productivity apps like Office or so, I guess Vbox is the easiest way. However, if you need top performance (near bare metal performance) for things like gaming, photo or vid...

Re: Problem with Wi-Fi connection
Do you experience this Wifi problem from within a virtual machine? If not, this would be the wrong forum. I have nearly no experience with using Wifi from within a VM, as I avoid it like the pest. However, it would be helpful if you share the network configuration of your host and ditto for the gues...

As a workaround, you could try to pass through the USB hub as PCI device to Windows. That is not always an option, though. You need to see if you have at least two separate USB hubs on your motherboard, and if they fall into different IOMMU groups. Passing through a USB hub to the VM using PCI passt...

Re: Qemu/kvm trying to use OpenGL (in VMM) with integrated GPU -> black screen in VM
You have to first make sure that IOMMU is set up correctly. It's not enough to enable it in grub via intel_iommu=on, but you have to turn it on in the BIOS. On Intel CPUs it is usually called VT-d, but it may also appear as IOMMU. Go into your BIOS settings and look for virtualization, IOMMU or VT-d...

virt-manager does some checking and it may revert changes that it doesn't see correct (or doesn't support). Also make sure you use the correct syntax for the entry. You can directly edit the configuration using the following command line: sudo virsh edit vm_name Unfortunately that will open the xml ...
