    SPICE EDD for Ultrawide resolution via Nomachine

    Ok this might turn into a longer thread! Did you start off with vanilla Debian without a display manager first? Then add X/wayland and a DM? What is your display driver and did you add an audio device from the outset? Is there a guide you followed? (eg...

    SPICE EDD for Ultrawide resolution via Nomachine

    If I understand correctly: don't enable the DM by default on boot? It's Mint Cinnamon so i think it uses lightdm.

    Hi, I gave set up the latest Mint Cinnamon VM in proxmox. My monitor is an LG Ultrawide 2560x1080 (21:9 ratio) Constraint: I have to use the SPICE display and audio driver because audio doesn't work in nomachine without SPICE. With that out of the way... Nomachine works great. But.... When...

I was looking at alpine and this guide (http://bolt.oclane.net/entry/creating-an-alpine-linux-openvz-container-template) and was hoping to use that. It build, but having trouble getting this to run in the latest proxmox...

    is there a way to make physical disks visible to VMs other than samba?

    Well i came across this: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/FAQ#How_can_I_assign_a_physical_disk_to_a_VM.3F It suggests running "qm set <vmid> -ide# /dev/sdb" for example ??? Also when i assign a disk to a VM (for VM disk storage) what exactly does the 'shared' flag do ? thx

    is there a way to make physical disks visible to VMs other than samba?

    So i have 1 disk (LVM proxmox) and 2 additional disks added to the box and mounted under proxmox. Other than samba is there some way to make those filesystems available to the VMs otehr than samba similar to Vmware folder sharing? May be a silly question. Thanks

    mount physical disks wirth existing data

    ok thats a relief. my concern is if proxmox will start taking over and lvm it thus wiping. so what youre suggesting is that lvm and non-lvm can coexist?
