Unless you have set up your custom image to have a serial console, it won't have anything listening there. Rather than rebooting, you should use the escape sequence that's described in vmadm(1M). > I would like to just somehow get to the Ubuntu desktop from the NUC's > primary display, but I'm stuck as to what to do.

I guess you could try to slap down pkgsrc in the GZ, try and start X, and then attach the NUC to that, but it strikes me as painful, and it'll leave you really off the beaten path. > So, I've got TWO issues: (1) figure out how to get the mouse to work from > VNC & (2) get the Ubuntu desktop to show up on the primary display. The first step is to understand what virtual device has been emulated and verify that it's present and accurately detected in the guest, as well as having a driver attached to it.
