Hi,


any idea of how to make Xorg + KDE run within an FreeBSD 10 instance
running from bhyve?


 The only current way is to setup X in the guest to display remotely. 
I've done this with Linux and it worked well.


later,

Peter.

This is good reason to see what can and can't be done with PC-BSD/TrueOS
under bhyve: http://iso.cdn.pcbsd.org/10.0-RELEASE/amd64/

Note that PC-BSD 10.0 is a great way to run bhyve given that it is is
simply based on FreeBSD 10.0. Warden/bhyve integration is reportedly in
the works along with FreeNAS 10.0 bhyve integration due in a month or two.

Re: bhyve with Xorg/kde

2014-01-25 Thread Peter Grehan

Hi,


I can run apps like, firefox, xterm, etc, but not a desktop.

my idea was to use bhyve as a remote workstation  and be available to
export the full environments (kde/xfce etc)


 I admit I've not tried this with a FreeBSD guest, but with an Ubuntu 
guest I was able to start KDE and send the display to a mac running X11. 
I also tried Xvnc on the Linux guest - this worked, but was a lot slower 
than remote X.



how much helps adding a graphic card to the server and “share it”
among the instances ?


 I'm not sure how that would work. It may be possible to use pass-thru 
for a graphics card to a single guest, but I don't think even that would 
work as expected due to the fixed 1MB VGA address space that can't be 
shared amongst guests/the host card.


 can it be emulated ?

 There will be VGA emulation in bhyve at some point - don't know 
exactly then that will be.


later,

Peter.
