The normal and recommended Proxmox file structure is what you’ve after running rm -rf /. Just move to Incus (LXD) and be done with it.

Incus provides a unified experience to deal with both LXC containers and VMs. If you’re running a modern version of Proxmox then you’re already running LXC containers so why not move to Incus that is made by the same people? Why keep dragging all of the Proxmox overhead and potencial issues?

Incus is free can be installed on any clean Debian system with little to no overhead and on the release of Debian 13 it will be included on the repositories. Another interesting advantage of Incus is that you can move containers and VMs between hosts with different base kernels and Linux distros.

Systemd does a lot of stuff I guess it is easier to just lean based on what comes up / you need. There isn’t a single path.

It could be an amazing change that results in much more progress for hardware acceleration on guests of various types (since that is what vmware is good at) in kvm…

Yeah but VMware was good. And I’m not seeing Broadcom investing into porting the “proprietary goodness” of VMware into KVM. I just see then looking at KVM and saying “that’s good enough” and seeing it a cost reduction measure.

I’ve questions about this.

People are talking about it like it is the greatest thing ever, however, isn’t this yet another result of the Broadcom acquisition? After firing a bunch of people , now this. Maybe they just don’t want to maintain the “existing proprietary virtualization code” so they’re moving to KVM. Less costs, less people.

Like what?

Windows 10 Enterprise with a ton of group polices applied, no issues ever. The Windows Terminal app is really good.

Love it 😂

It’s not “my hardware” it is that everyone talks about Linux desktop yet nobody puts any effort into going into the tablet market that is where Linux can have a real advantage (because ARM + full desktop OS experience) and get a large user base.

Instead of wasting time on supporting bullshit hardware that almost nobody owns and will be forgotten in about 6 months, what about placing some effort into real hardware that real people want to use like tablets? Fucks sake.

Update: just to make it clear, I own no hardware of that type, it’s not “doesn’t work on my hardware” type of situation. It is that everyone likes to talks about Linux desktop (including Canonical) yet nobody puts any effort into going into the tablet market that is where Linux can have a real advantage (because ARM + full desktop OS experience) and get a real user base.

AirPods work so… how much more proprietary can you get? :P

Will they learn how to apply padding to stuff this time?

Just fire up Wireshark and inspect what Firefox calls, a lot of calling home and even if you change all the settings and config parameters to something sane it will still contact a 3rd party analytics company. Mozilla also acquired an ad analytics company recently for some reason.

Yeah repositories and FTP don’t include that, but it is kind shady that the first way to get it (website) for the majority of regular users (Windows/macOS) has a unique ID - after all this is the company that goes all in for privacy…

Nothing, not everyone liked it, the only difference is that my comment would result in a shit show of downvotes last week while not people are starting to realize what Mozilla/Firefox really is. Mozilla was never the “all savior” pained them to be and it only took Wireshark and a couple of minutes to see it.

No no, guys Mozilla are the good guys. They never did something nasty like bundling tons of spyware and 3rd party calls with Firefox nor adding unique IDs to every installation. Mozilla also acquired an ad analytics company recently for some reason.

Hm, so now people suddenly notice and care about this? lol

vbox is easy until it starts saying vt-d isn’t enabled and refuses to start when it fact it is.

Maybe it can be installed in Debian 12 now without much trouble…

Yeah, all for security. I’ve been “complaining” about this for a while. :)
