Thank you Stephan. I have been using Virtualbox and running a Win10 machine on my Arcolinux host. I find it very heavy on resources and occasionally lagging. I understand that kvm/qemu is much better at sparing resources and will be making a Windows VM in Virtmanager. This is an excellent instructional video and was easy to follow and get up and running. Thank you.
Sir you are super good to explain, thank you for your best website,ould you please make more video with qemu, really you are the only one who explaining KVM so professional and easy for everyone.
fantastic video, KVM is one of the reasons i wanted to switch to linux, and you explained it a lot better, more level headed and in depth than the rest of the videos ive watched. great stuff!
That worked! I’ve been struggling with virtual machines for a couple of weeks. VirtualBox works mostly, but I can’t get Hyperland to work. Until just now I couldn’t get kvm/qemu to create a VM. Arch is installing right now with Hyprland. Hopefully it will work this time. Looking forward to watching more of your videos on Arch and Hyprland. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for your feedback. Don't forget to enable 3D acceleration. And don't forget that Hyprland is not made for VMs. That's why the performance will not be like native. But for testing it works for me.
@@mylinuxforwork, hi there. I’ve been trying to get 3D acceleration to work. I have Nvidia, so that seems to be a problem. I’m using a laptop that has Intel Tiger Lake and Nvidia. I think it’s working with the Intel drivers, but it’s very laggy and I’m getting a little bit of screen tearing. But it is working. I need to learn quite a bit more about the configuration and key bindings before I graduate from the VM. Hopefully I’ll get what I need from your videos. 😊
Virt Manager is superior to VirtualBox and VMWare by far !! :) I was able to create a full Sun Clutser with Solaris 10 X86, with separate cluster hartbeat networks, and another separate iSCSI network with Ubuntu server as a iSCSI SAN, worked like a charm, so far I did cluster filesystem, planning to add HA mysql to the cluster soon.
Note You may want to set your KVM networking to use a bridged connection. Bridging makes your VMs. appear to be real machines on your local network This is great for servers Samba, local Web Servers and other resources you want your local network to reach. By default Kvm VMs us Nat on an isolated internal network. Nat supports outbound connections but hides your VMs from the local network. NAT used in most cases by your local router to block connections originating from the nasty outside Internet. There are many TH-cam videos on setting up a network bridge. It is just adjusting some internal Linux settings to create a virtual switch your VMs and other programs connect through.. There are tools to do it on alinux desktop or even on servers with only a text console.
@@mylinuxforwork There is a Network Manager TUI text user interface which I have used before. Your NIC is connected to the bridge and the bridge take on your IP address. There are YT videos to help with this stuff. Good luck.
Hey. What would happen if you simply installed the virt manager without changing anything in the config files? Would it not work at all? Would it work sub-optimally?
Will also work. I have this setup currently on my system to test my dotfiles on different Linux platforms. The config changes are mainly to prepare for type 1 emulation and passthrough the GPU. Give it a try.
According to the Linux Foundation and Arch Wiki, "Note: the bridge-utils package is DEPRECATED, instead use the bridge command from iproute2 package." But you say to install it. Do you know what's going on with this? I'm confused.
Hi. It’s a very dynamic topic. So changes or new recommendations are possible. What counts is what works at the end. I’m planning a new version of the video in the upcoming months.

CAN a VM be used to run ANDROID APPS??? I have a security system and don't want to have my phone on all the time for it... want it on my computer..... would that work? I do NOT use windows (I don't like CROOKED company's trash on my machine)..
@@mylinuxforwork Waydroid won't work without WAYLAND and I can't stand wayland-- too many glitches...and some software won't work with it.. including my DOC- which I use all the time.

Thanks Stephan. You are by far my favourite Linux youtuber. Keep up the good work!
Thanks you so much.

Thanks for this proposal. I had not luck to setup a bridged network. But maybe I give it another try.

I am trying to install from a cd and it keeps saying no instillation file detected
Just download and use the ISO.
I did this command and let a space by mistake between ~/ and .docker , rm -rf ~/ .docker , all my home directories were deleted. Is that the real cause ?
The rm command is really dangerous. And with this command you remove your home folder.
@@mylinuxforwork yeah right I did it so quickly I left a space that destroys my system , thank you for your answer and well done for all your videos
What versions of windows can be run as a guest OS?
What about Debian as the host?
Every version of Windows can run as a guest. Debian should work as well.
Is this with gpu pass thru?
