For some reason I thought the UEFI implementation had a more limited set of display resolutions, but I have never tested it. It was just my luck to start with the single Linux distro I have seen that doesn't support UEFI for its Live ISO files. /Henrik ___ freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-virtualization-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

I would strongly encourage you to use vnc and UEFI bios mode in bhyve for what you are attempting to do. Unless your guess is not able to run a uefi frame buffer type display, which any recent FreeBSD should be just fine with.

This will work with the normal X server and bhyve's built-in VNC if you run the guest with UEFI CSM and apply my Video BIOS patch: https://www.gulbra.net/freebsd-bhyve/ However, when I tested it with a GhostBSD 19.04 ISO image, the mouse didn't work - probably because FreeBSD still didn't support the XHCI tablet needed for absolute pointer coordinates in bhyve.

But how do you enable the vnc console on a FreeBSD guest? I boot my FreeBSD guests with bhyveload, which does not have a vnc console. Does your FreeBSD guest see this vnc console as a video card suitable for running a local X-server? What driver? -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN 2:5005/49@fidonet http://vas.tomsk.ru/ signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Xephyr is an X-server and X-client at the same time, correct? Then I can install it in the guest VM and make it output to my FreeBSD desktop. I don't even think SSH X11 forwarding will be required, just setting the $DISPLAY variable appropriately? But first of all, how do you make Gnome or KDE use Xephyr as a local X-server? -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN 2:5005/49@fidonet http://vas.tomsk.ru/ signature.asc Description: PGP signature
