pgcd, 5 days ago to ableton

My audio VM works generally well (even great) except for one problem:
#Ableton Live doesn't see the content in #VirtualBox shared folders.

Does anybody have an idea how to solve this? Note that the guest OS (win) can access normally everything in the shared folders, and it's only Live that doesn't (without errors or anything).

So anyway, here's my #askfedi of the day and it'd be great if you could boost for visibility since the #linux -> #linuxaudio -> #Ableton -> #VirtualBox crows is... tiny?

Ich bräuchte da eine #Windows VM auf meinem #Linux Laptop.

Was will ich dann da nehmen?

#QEMU/#KVM und den virt-manager oder #VirtualBox?

Oder was ganz was anderes?

Linux, 1 month ago to linux

I have noticed a few Linux distros which include:

virtualbox-guest-additions

Preinstalled even though Virtual Box is not installed. It seems easy enough to uninstall, as nothing seems to depend on it. But it does beg the question of why it is included.

Virtualbox on KVM? Love it

xanderio, 4 months ago to linux

Cyberus Technology (my employer) just released a KVM backend allows VirtualBox to run virtual machines utilising the Linux KVM hypervisor instead of the custom kernel module used by standard VirtualBox. Check out our blog post about this: https://cyberus-technology.de/articles/vbox-kvm-public-release/?utm_source=fediverse&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=blog #virtualbox #kvm #linux

CI jobs for my ansible playbook have been broken for months due to some changes with GitHub Actions.
This took me down a rabbit hole to fix...

Long story short: Self-Hosted GitHub Actions runner, running on Proxmox with nested virtualization to run molecule tests using Vagrant against VirtualBox VMs. 🙃

I really did squash a lot of issues in OS/1337:
https://github.com/orgs/OS-1337/projects/1

Good news: Network Support is in it.
Status: Still within #1440kB size for the #Core Edition.
Bad News: PCI(e) stack had to be yeeted in order to fit, so no #Networking in #VirtualBox

I'll now have to get my workflow to follow the pipeline that @SweetAIBelle has been builing...

Need some help! Okay, I’m running an Ubuntu 22.04 LTS VM via VirtualBox. After I login though, if I don’t do anything for a while, it takes me back to the login prompt. Is there a way to remove/extend the timeout?

:boost_requested: :boost_animated: :boost_ok:
#FollowerPower: Anyone with #Linux - #boot|ing #KnowHow able and willing to take a look why my current build of OS/1337 doesn't boot?

It's a 1440kB 3,5" #Floppy image and should work just fine in #VirtualBox / #QEMU / #KVM / #vmware but it's stuck after loading #Linux (bzImage) and the remaining files (rootfs.cpio.xz)...

It uses #syslinux as #bootloader so any hints are appreciated.

Today's $dayjob shenanigans. Building #OpenWrt from scratch as a #VirtualBox VM for sandbox testing DHCP PXE boot settings, then re-compiling to run on a BT Hub 5a for deployment in a lab.

Not very retro at all, but we all have to have a break sometime. 😊

I spent most of my Saturday playing with my new DIY Framework 13 @frameworkcomputer and it was super fun & amazing! 💖 So far, I:

• Installed #Fedora 38 and discovered it uses DNF (not APT)
• Got #VirtualBox then immediately uninstalled it in favor of QEMU/KVM
• Migrated from 1Password to #Bitwarden
• Got Slack then immediately uninstalled it since it conflicted with Bitwarden installation

Plus I went down a few rabbit holes here and there, because that’s how you learn #Linux! 😂

WTF
I just lost half a day diagnosing a #VirtualBox problem. If I didn't experience this myself. I would believe it either.

TL;TR; It was the VM Icon

For the #BSidesMunich23 training tomorrow I installed the @mobexler VM.

After some time I got an error when starting the VM

VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)

Other VM continued to work. I reinstalled VBox, kernel modules, nothing helped.

I deleted everything and re-imported the ova file.
And again it worked.

I was pretty shocked today what a terrible experience it is to run #Fedora #Linux in #VirtualBox on Windows. Is there a better free option? Perhaps VMware Player?

Does anyone have an idea why my #Windows 10 VM in #Virtualbox only shows a black screen when booted up (login screen)?

This also happens when I resize the window.

The guest additions are up-to-date, so that should not be the problem. The host is #Debian with #Xfce, but I think this might not be the problem, because it worked from some time and other Windows 10 VMs also work.
