To Reproduce Follow the instructions in the manual install or use the one click option and reach the point at which ./basic.sh is ran

Expected behavior QEMU runs and the vm boots

Desktop:

Additional context Using the awesome window manager and no desktop environment

@sesu-64 you can use the headless version and ssh into it as you have no gui? Would that be an option?

ghost commented 2 years ago

why would I want to do that? and what do you mean "as you have no gui"?

to clarify, I'm genuinely confused as to what you mean, do you not know what a window manager is or something? I seriously don't understand what you mean by me not having a gui when I'm typing this on the same machine I'm trying to run the VM with... and I can run other vms with Virt-manager just fine if that's something that can help figure out the possible problem. my bet would be that I'm missing something you haven't listed as a dependency but I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination, I hope this helps

@sesu-64 A GUI is a graphical user interface aka a desktop environment. correct me if I am wrong, but I am understanding that you have no desktop environment, but have a window manager. I would use VNC Viewer and connect to port localhost:5900 after starting the machine with this command: sudo HEADLESS=1 ./basic.sh

This will connect the vm to a vnc instance, which can be faster than a window manager.

Ok, I think something might be getting lost in the translation here, because a window manager IS as much of a graphical user interface as a full desktop environment, except it comes with no other gui programs like file managers or settings. That aside, I didn't manage to solve the spice-server bug, but running the basic.sh script and then running vncviewer :5900 gets me the window to show up in spite of the bug report, I suppose bigger desktop environments have vncviewer set to always listen and pop up a window if a qemu-system runs but I just had to run that command up there and it works, anyways, thank you for maintaining this project and sorry if my issue was a bit annoying to listen to.

See here solution

Apologies again, as I am quite stupid.

@sesu-64 Glad you figured it out! I will close this issue now. And no, you were not annoying to listen to.
