Hello. I would like to integrate Ubuntu,Fedora,Arch or maybe some other distro into one single,homogeneous and flexible operating (OS) context. I would like to use Ubuntu (22.04) as the host OS and the rest of the OSes (Fedora,Arch) will be virtualized within different virtual machines (I don't want to use containers,I know that they are a better choice,but I want to understand if a virtual machine is good anyway when it is very well configured). The idea is also to use qemu + kvm with the nographic and no vga options enabled,without virt-manager or boxes. I don't want to open and close the virtual machine graphical interface every time I want to run an application. I find it much more comfortable if I can run every application and command within one only terminal by premising,for example,a letter indicating to which distribution the command or application belongs to. Or I could tell xpra to open the fedora or the arch linux terminal. For sure it will be much faster to configure,but it has less scenic effect.
So. I've installed Fedora 37 on a qemu-kvm VM and I've installed xpra on Ubuntu and on Fedora. As you can see below,when I invoke firefox from the Fedora VM (that has IP = 192.168.122.156),it starts correctly : ziomario@Z390-AORUS-PRO-DEST:~$ xpra start ssh://marietto@192.168.122.156 --start=firefox Warning: vendor 'Intel' is greylisted, you may want to turn off OpenGL if you encounter bugs 2023-03-07 18:26:52,384 Xpra GTK3 X11 client version 3.1 64-bit 2023-03-07 18:26:52,454 running on Linux Ubuntu 22.04 jammy 2023-03-07 18:26:52,454 window manager is 'Xfwm4' 2023-03-07 18:26:52,465 opencv not found: 2023-03-07 18:26:52,465 No module named 'cv2' 2023-03-07 18:26:52,465 webcam forwarding is disabled 2023-03-07 18:26:52,677 GStreamer version 1.20.3 for Python 3.10.6 64-bit 2023-03-07 18:26:52,733 No OpenGL_accelerate module loaded: No module named 'OpenGL_accele rate' 2023-03-07 18:26:52,881 Warning: vendor 'Intel' is greylisted, 2023-03-07 18:26:52,881 you may want to turn off OpenGL if you encounter bugs 2023-03-07 18:26:52,979 OpenGL enabled with Mesa Intel(R) UHD Graphics 630 (CFL GT2) 2023-03-07 18:26:52,989 Connected (version 2.0, client OpenSSH_8.8) 2023-03-07 18:26:53,129 loaded RSA private key from '/home/ziomario/.ssh/id_rsa' 2023-03-07 18:26:53,141 Authentication (publickey) successful! 2023-03-07 18:26:53,407 keyboard settings: rules=evdev, model=pc105, layout=it 2023-03-07 18:26:53,585 desktop size is 3840x1080 with 1 screen: 2023-03-07 18:26:53,585 :0.0 (1016x286 mm - DPI: 96x95) workarea: 3840x1044 2023-03-07 18:26:53,585 AOC HDMI-1 1920x1080 (598x336 mm - DPI: 81x81) 2023-03-07 18:26:53,585 PHL HDMI-2-0 1920x1080 at 1920x0 (598x336 mm - DPI: 81x81) 2023-03-07 18:27:03,895 unknown packet type: setting-change 2023-03-07 18:27:08,033 enabled remote logging 2023-03-07 18:27:08,033 Xpra X11 seamless server version 4.4 32-bit 2023-03-07 18:27:08,034 running on unknown 2023-03-07 18:27:08,220 server does not support xi input devices 2023-03-07 18:27:08,220 server uses: xtest The problem is that firefox takes 6 or more seconds to appear. And it's not the only one that's so slow. Every application that I try to run is very slow. You can imagine that is not good if I want to integrate Ubuntu,Fedora,Arch or maybe some other distro into one single,homogeneous and flexible operating (OS) context. When I want to run an application, I expect it to start as fast as it would if it were installed locally. Is that goal achievable ?
