          I remember doing this when using Hyper-V. Is it needed when using virtualbox?

            Not sure, Hyper-V and KVM both for sure.

              I so rarely care. BUt can be useful at times.

                We are starting to roll out Ubuntu Budgie for customer premises jump boxes. So getting this solid matters now.

                  @scottalanmiller never used budgie - is there any advantage to using that over xfce?

                    It looks nice and it's a modern desktop environment.

                      Mind blowing attractiveness 🙂

                      XFCE is fine and we used to use that. Budgie is so much slicker, smoother, and nice to use, though, unless you get heavily modified XFCE like Korora used to do (that's what we used to use.) I feel like Budgie responds better (we aren't CPU and RAM constrained) and definitely for end users who only use it sometimes it is much more friendly and inviting.

                          Logging into Budgie makes me happy, lol.

                            @scottalanmiller not a fan so far. will keep playing with it, but it hasn't impressed me yet. still, that's the beauty of linux, you have such a wide choice for desktop managers.

                                  So does Fedora.

                                    Always fail when I do it, there is some trick to it. Happen to know what's needed so that it doesn't just put hashes on the screen for forever?
