Porteus

Just wondering if anyone had some followup thoughts on this. Do I need to load a different kernel, is spice missing from the QEMU in the repos, something else . . . ?

Alright, so, reloading the typelibs got virt-manager to load. I had to load a few more things (I will document once I get everything working). The final issue I'm having is with the spice protocol. It is complaining: libvirtError: unsupported configuration: spice graphics are not supported with this...

Well, now - this is interesting. Yesterday, the flash drive that I planned to use for permanent install came in the mail. I ran the Porteus installer and copied the qemu and virt-manager modules to the /porteus/modules folder on the new drive. With the modules loaded at boot, I got a different error...

. . . where'd you go, Bogomips?

Thanks for the quick reply. I don't assume you want the whole output of that other than to know that it does indeed spit out the help menu? python -V yields: Python 2.7.5.

PS, I'm largely a Python noob, so please forgive me for that - I'm sure the problem has more to do with Python than with Porteus.

This isn't too old of a post to bump, I hope (even though it is marked as solved). From what I can tell, I got qemu-kvm properly installed. Now, I'm trying to get virt-manager working. I followed the following to install the dependencies of virt-manager: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slack...

Yeah, I found that one. If I recall, I had dependency problems with virt-manager. I wondered if anyone out there had actually successfully done what I've described so they could share their experience. If not, I suppose I'll go back to poking around and come back to ask for help when I need it. Than...

So, I'm extremely impressed with Porteus for two reasons. 1) All of my hardware (including my iwlwifi card) is detected with no problems. 2) The ATI fglrx driver is available out of the box, and it freaking works. Well done, team! Is it possible to get virt-manager and qemu-kvm installed on Porteus?...
