title:
text selection in host spawns multiple error messages in guests

I only use local access.


hmm, seems all these years I've misunderstood the security profile of the clipboard.
I had assumed that the contents of the host / guest clipboard
would only be...

Unless I misunderstand you host and guest are on the same machine.

fwiw, and as another option,
I run multiple VMs at the same time on different virtual desktops,
accessing their desktops via...

Whenever I select text with the mouse in a host, each guest running in that hosts gets many system log / journald log messages:


localhost spice-vdagent[1039]: vdagent_clipboard_data: sel_id=1:...

I do run three dual-screen clones at the same time, on 3 different host virtual screens.
I also sync them nightly to my warm-standby, so they are running on 2 hosts.

I delete and recreate them...

Circling back here with the results from 4 days running VMs with either QXL or Virtio.

1. remarkably, no crashes in either.
Why no crashes in the QXL VMs for 4 days I have no idea.
Despite...

Of course will do.
I have split the machines today to see how it goes.

The options available in virt-manager are:

None
Bochs
QXL
Ramfb
VGA

"That is, I'm afraid, way past my skill-set to interpret very helpfully."
(chuckle) - yes, mine also.;)

But there is one idea you have given me: you are using Virtio, whereas I am using QXL.

Thanks for the reply - here's the detail.

I run the VMs on 2 laptops with attached screens:

Main machine with 32gb of ram, 12 cores and 3 screens, with the hwe kernel -6.5.0-28.
On this...

Over the last few weeks I have been trying to move from Virtualbox to qemu/libvirt/spice.
I had been using virtualbox since 2018 under Xubuntu 18.04 then Xubuntu 22.04.
Once you get over the...

Shared folders work poorly for any but the simplest cases.
See thread:
https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=69097
for some of the issues.
I have used NFS with OSS Virtualbox since...

ha, once you know how to properly formulate the question,
you may find the answer.

The solution is here:...

Today virtualbox upgraded from 5.2.18 to 5.2.32.

As part of this upgrade, the kernel drivers were deleted from all 4 kernels in my system,


then only rebuilt for the latest kernel:


So...

yes, about to, just wanted to see if you had any comment first.
Thanks for your help.
Answering your questions got us to the answer.

In fact that may be the answer.
Just checked the dependencies
Output of

aptitude show system76-driver



So, it seems an update to the system76 driver caused the install of the hwe kernel....

No, I did not have any problem
that caused me to manually install the hwe kernel.
Most of my problems get solved by coffee, not kernels.

This is...

However, if you manually control your fans, you need to watch the cpu temp.
I have had overheating shudowns on Kubuntu 14.04 running hte HWE kernel with the first version of the OryxPro.
No...

Thanks for the fast response.

I installed the original 18.04, from the xubuntu-18.04-desktop-amd64.iso medium
though over time it has upgraded to 18.04.2.
From lsb_release -a

Replying late to this - just saw it.

I am running a clean install of Xubuntu 18.04 (from xubuntu-18.04-desktop-amd64.iso)

(thanks for moving this to the right place)

One key tip I forgot:

In Xubuntu, the default and the Tango and Oxygen icon sets which I usually use
were missing many icons for kde programs,
so...

Actually in 18.04 it is now in the main repos,
though of course there is a slightly later vsn in a ppa.
I use the ppa version.

I moved from Dropbox to Syncthing in 2016, happy with it.

It is different to Dropbox in that:

A pool of mostly long-time users disillusioned with KDE,
are looking to move from Kubuntu to Xubuntu.
