Title: virt manager guests refusing to resize
Post by: petergriffin on 21 May 2024, 22:25:32
Hello,
I have recently completed an installation of artix base openrc, and I have yet to smooth a few creases.

I am using KVM/QEMU for virtualization, and I can install and run guests properly, however I am unable to change the resolution of the guest and resize the guest through the graphical manager.

I haven't found anything relevant to my issue on the internet.
If someone could supply a relevant article or document that perhaps could assist me, or even more so provide direct and precise instructions describing the solution, I would be very grateful!

The host is a tiling WM.

Thank you!

I don't user virtmanager, but qemu direct:
Code: [Select]
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -cpu host -smp cores=4 -m 4G -vga none -device virtio-vga-gl -display sdl,gl=on -audio sdl,model=hda -drive file=[qcow2-Image],if=virtio,aio=io_uring,discard=unmap
Btw: With Runit I had the most less Problems: In real and in VMs.
