My understanding is that Vagrant is the preferred way of using Docker under the Mac and Linux. When you're running your virtual distro inside of an LXC container using Vagrant or Docker, can you have it run a full desktop environment on my native video hardware? Some of the examples I've found run everything over ssh. That's not what I'm aiming for. I'd like to be able to run, say Linux Mint in a container on top of Fedora, and then run a regular Cinnamon Desktop running in the Mint container but on my native screen (no ssh, no virtualized graphics card). Can Vagrant or Docker provide an easy way to do that? I believe LXC is capable of what I describe. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
