OpenSUSE :: A Good Free Virtualization Software Package That Work On OpenSuse With The KDE Desktop?
Oct 4, 2010
Can anyone suggest a good free Virtualization Software Package that work on OpenSuse with the KDE Desktop, as I need to use Windows for some applications that have not got a Linux equivelant, Namely Reserch In Motions BlackBerry Desktop Manager and the drivers for my Printer and Scanner, so I would also need something with USB pass through. Or if there isn't any free virtualization software that will dowat I want that's free then something that is not expensive that's paid for. I like the look of Parallels Desktop 4 for Windows & Linux but I'm not sure if I would be able to justify paying �54.99 for the ammount of use that it will get?

I installed opensuse 11.2 64-bit edition. I installed all of the software I wanted.I now want to clone the installation to 6 other workstations that are 100% identical to the first.I used clonezilla to create the image, but all of the new workstations will not boot. This is due to the fact of the fstab being 100% cloned and other boot volume problems.Does anyone know of a good, easy way to clone opensuse 11.2 that will work?

I would like to know or to retrieve a guide with all the steps to follow to do a hardware virtualization in a 1.5 TB-HDD in which i want to have 2 VM with VT-d (Hardware virtualization) one VM with Opensuse 11.4 x64 and the other with Windows 7 x64. The fact is that I want to run both VM's at same time and I need aid and tips with Xen 4.1 because all the Tutorials and guides that I've seen are from non updated versions (3.0, 2.2...). Do I need 3 partitions to virtualize by hardware (one for the host and the other 2 for the VM's)?? Which host OS do you recommend me?
Is it hard to configure Xen and anyway, how to do it? Basically I'm a novice use of linux and my doubts come up refering to Xen configuration, installation and Hardware virtualization selection ( Graphic Card Virtualization above all) because if I have to touch the BIOS settings tell me how, or the application sets it by itself? What I want to virtualize is a 7 Professional 64bits with most of the Disk space (at least 1 TB)for gaming&multimedia, and Opensuse 11.4 64bits. I'll use suse to work & test software.
Motherboard Gigabyte GA-H67A-UD3H
Processor: Intel Socket 1155 - Intel Core I5 2400 3.1Ghz
OpenSuse 11.4 (default DVD kernel version)
RAM memory Kingston ValueRAM 8 GB DDR3 1333 in modules of 2.
Hard drive 3.5 SATA - Samsung HD154UI 1.5TB SATA2 32MB MAESTRO.
I'm not searching for software virtualization/ full virtualization / paravirtualization. I'm searching for vt-x, vt-d & Graphic card optimizing with windows emulated environment. And do you recommend me to use another Xen version or software to achieve this goal?

I have an Opensuse 11.1 system I am using to host a single Opensuse 10.3 KVM guest. The hardware has 2 nics that i would like the host to bridge to the guest. I have done many Googles and have not had a lot of luck finding a set of docs that I can use to help me set this up for Opensuse.

I'd like to boot my windoze partition in opensuse. However,
System > Virtualization > Create Virtual Machines Yields nothing.
Only asks for root PW, and then does nothing else. Xen is installed.

After installation and deinstallation of XEN the main topic "Virtualization" is missing in the YAST control center.
Under "Software Management" I searched for "yast" but found no fitting module.
How can I reinstall?

I have tried just about every thing I can find to get this to work on my laptop but have had no luck.Now this is the weird thing I can boot a Live CD of openSUSE 11 Gnome and make the Desktop Effects work no problem, but installing ATI drivers and unstalling ATI drivers still will not let the Desktop Effects work. I have tried all that I know and here are the xorg confs from both.

I have a nVidia GeForce FX Go5200 card, and desktop effects will not work. I will enable them, but they won't work and when I close the window and open it back up, "Enable Graphics" is unchecked again! Any idea as to the problem and/or how to solve it?

I selected 'Fire' from the Desktop effects list and got an error message saying that it "could not be activated".Why? Does it conflict with another effect? Is there a way to fix this?

I am trying to get a USB wireless device to work on my desktop computer running OpenSUSE 11.1.
Here is what I have gathered after working through the sticky on getting my wireless to work:
In Yast Hardware Info:
USB:
UDI: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_bda_8189_00e04c000001_if0
Note in boot log:
Failed services in runlevel 5: network
When I go into Yast/Network Devices/Network Settings, I can add a setting for this device but if I quit out of Yast and go in again the setting is no longer listed. What should I do next?

I have a customer who has (currently) three servers running Centos 5.5, one running Windoze 2003 and around thirty or so workstations running XP Pro.
I've just been reading about RedHat's product - RHEVD and was wondering of anyone knows if this product (or anything similar) is aavailable under CentOS.
Basically what we need to be able to do is to virtualize the XP workstations so that the staff can connect via a browser (inside the office or off-site - or for that matter anywhere) and be presented with a standard desktop.
I know I can achieve this using Citrix XenDesktop or VMWare View but I would prefer to use a FOSS solution if one exists. Having said that it has to be robust and well past Beta

I would like to try putting some kind of free "bare metal" visualization for desktop useage on my laptop. I've been googling about the possibilities, but still I'm not sure which would actually work in my case. I've seen VMWare ESXi which looks ok, but unfortunatelly it is meant for servers and I can't have ESXI and Sphere client on same laptop. Another candidate I found is KVM, but as much I've seen it requires VTx VTd support from hardware, which my laptop can't provide. The same requirements must be met for Citrix Xen Client, which is meant for desktop virtualizations, but because of lack of VTx and VTd, can't be used in my case. Is there any other possibility? Currently I'm using VirtualBox and VMWare player for virtualization purposes, but I would like to pull out more performance out of it, and a heavy OS on top of another heavy OS just isn't the best way.

I am using nx client and I would like to ask your help. Is it possible when I connect from home to my work's computer (using nx client) to see the exactly same desktop-taskbar and open programs as I left them in my work computer.
Imagine that you are at work using your computer. You lock the keyboard and you go home(you didn't turn it off). You go home and you login to work's computer. What I want to see is the same if I was just unlocking works's computer. IS that possible and how?

Does anyone know of a good reminder program?
I want some sort of pop-up or message display for things like appointments, due dates, etc. Maybe send a notice to email. Preferably something that will go out about two weeks or more.
Doesn't have to be fancy or even gui based.

I have used a patched Cairo in 11.2 from Packman and the fonts were excellent. Now I upgraded to 11.3 and installed freetype from subpixel repo. While I have good fonts in Qt now, in Gnome still they are bad. There is no patched Cairo in Packman for 11.3 Installing the patched Cairo for 11.2 from Packman and from Ubuntu-patch project did not help

Excuse me for bringing back this kind of subject already discussed by other users, but I need it. I have slow internet connection so I need a download manager that is able to accelerate downloads and resume them after they are paused or interrupted by provider disconnection. I tried kget but it's very slow. After some minutes downloads hadn't even started. I found that downthemall and prozgui got a more suitable speed but I have had problems with latter versions of both.
In downthemall almost at all downloads that amount to a size of several Mb's the speed start to slow down when it reaches from 90% to 99% completed until 0kb/s and download pauses, needing manual resuming. But I can stay watching downloads to see when they'll stop, mainly if they are large. Prozgui worked fine in my opensuse 11.3 install but now on 11.4 some downloads seem to end up correctly but when I use them some files are corrupted.

I have an old (2005) PowerMac that just got out of the shop for a new power supply. I'm installing a new hard drive and have no operating system for it. Is OpenSUSE a good selection for a 64 bit PowerMac? Are there any incompatibility issues?Anything I should do before installation?I have read most of the pre-install instructions and I'm wondering if:
1.Will Open Firmware allow Target Disk Mode (like OS X) to boot from firewire drives using Linux?
2.What applications / operating systems are best with 64 bit PowerPC machines?
3.Is network administration / simple file hosting / and network security straightforward with Linux (OpenSUSE)?
4.Is network backup software native / available to Linux distros?
5.Does OpenSUSE or any other Linux OS work well with Dual Processors? Native Support?
I will have tons of questions. I use OpenSUSE on a laptop and I seem to like it fairly well.It is not UBUNTU, and that's a good thing.I like how OpenSUSE feels.I've never used Linux on a PowerPC, but I use several Macintosh G4 and G5 machines.
