RC 1.14 fails in VirtualBox, has problems in UTM

2024-04-19 Thread Liam Proven
Tested this morning in the latest VBox 7.0.16 (which in theory
supports kernel 6.8). Running on macOS Monterey, 12.7.4 (latest
release for my hardware).

GNOME edition: I got a message that my VM had outdated Guest
Additions, which I took as a good sign. However, installation froze
hard, locking the mouse pointer and whole VM, at 8% complete.

KDE edition: severe text corruption made it inoperable; almost no text
visible in the installer.

I tried again in the latest UTM, which uses QEMU under the hood.

GNOME: worked fine, nicely responsive.

KDE: installer draws a blank featureless blue screen. I turned off GPU
passthrough and tried again.  Completed fine, and works fine, although
it is a little sluggish.

Sound does not work in either desktop, though.

I just thought you might like to know.

Oh well, so long as it's not me for once. ;-)

Since you don't quote any part of any message, we have no idea who you
consider to be a troll and so who we are not supposed to feed. Thus
making your message content-free and so in itself rather trollish.

Um, well, TBH, I think it would be nice for Red Hat *not* to monetise
the desktop.

If it wants to monetise  Fedora it will drive more people away from it, I think.

It is perfectly free to monetise RHEW and should.
