[libvirt-users] Q on stupid video tricks

2011-08-01 Thread Whit Blauvelt
Hi, The good news is that if you use Virt-Manager running in a VM viewed through Virt-Manager, that VM can drill another level through to view VMs. The badish news is if that's a GUI desktop, the video for the VM-in-VM view ends up (at least for me) with some serious artifacts - particularly disto
