[SOLVED] is linux mint good for virtualization?

Post by retro »

hi, i'm new here, and after some days using linux mint on a virtual machine, i liked mint's appearance and performance on virtual machine. i liked it so much that i'm thinking about using it on my main machine, however, i'm hesitating a bit because i don't know if it's better than the current distro i have for virtualization (manjaro linux), because i make a lot of virtual machines and i'm wondering if linux mint's virtualization performance is good. well, i found that linux mint has a good performance on benchmarks, but not on gaming, though. so i think it has a worse performance than manjaro when it comes to virtualization, but i need someone to confirm that to me lol

Hi retro ,
welcome to our forum.

the LinuxMint System is fine with most virtualization attempts,

use the latest Ubuntu version .. get the VM VirtualBox Extension Pack, as well.
