Your experience generally sums up every attempt I've made at making
things work with any of the *buntu versions. I have spent enough time to
get really frustrated with it and eventually go to something else.
For a short time I was concerned because Fedora was too unstable with
systemd, ubuntu just sucks for everything beyond running from a live
disc (and even that half the time), and openSuSE while awesome would
suddenly crap out after a few reboots. Never really figured that one out
and was really disappointed.
Finally with Fedora 21 things are stable again. F20 got better later in
its life.

Thanks for the comments from Stephen and James.
This has unfortunately been a very frustrating experience, having
tried VirtualBox, KVM, and now even VMware Workstation, just try to
get something working, and each is fubar for some reason under ubuntu.
Virtualbox always works well, but for some reason won't import the
disk (some kind of uuid issue reading the disk image).
KVM packages just seem broken under ubuntu, as does apparmor (as
usual).
VMware Workstation/Player 11 does nothing but give me "permission
denied" when trying to make a vm as a user, then as root tells me
there is no space left with 40gb in the volume.
I haven't seen this many f'd up package or app installs under ubuntu
in a while, though I expect it of VMware - they can't make linux
clients to save their life. KVM I was surprised to see it's as much a
basketcase under ubuntu as it was. Seems if people use it, they do so
with the rh variants, for a reason.
All I wanted was a stupid F5 load-balancer virtual appliance to run to
lab, instead 3 days wasted. Ugh.
Thanks again all.
