Onyx' adventures in virtualization

While the monitor on the left will show an out-of-date notice on its screensaver because Stable means no updates ever

From now on, only the monitor on the right will reboot sporadically?
Hopefully not, because the plan is to use Looking Glass and not have to have a dedicated monitor.

I do. How else am I supposed to get to see BSOD on Linux?

Apparently they're the only way to lock your screen on X11

You shouldn't read blakeyposts unironically.

Time to tweak shit!

Keep the faith.
Maybe one day, Windows will be as good as KDE

No it won't.

Considering all software seems to be getting worse, I suppose all it has to do is degrade faster

Ok, so, done for today because I need to leave soon, but...
Got a game working. Performance - not the best. That's the bad news. The good news is that Looking Glass works, so I can technically play with it now without an extra screen as long as I don't reinstall Windows.
Two steps I intend on trying:
- convert the image to raw from qcow, I might be getting poor disk performance due to image shennanigans. I also don't know how good the disk controller drivers are and all that, needs poking
- Provide the ROM file for my GPU to QEmu, it's possible this will have an effect. I don't know. Once again, needs poking.

I do. I have it set to display a text that translates as, “Do something!”

@boomzilla There's always the chance of a backport.

Weeeeel... Using modern cladistics... yes. All vertibrates evolved from fish so they technically are fish as well.

Obviously that just starts
xblank, which simply overlays a top-level chromeless modal window on all available displays.
