Hans, One more consideration. Graphic intensive software may run slower on a virtual machine, particularly if you have a high speed graphics card. Because, as I understand, VMs emulate graphics and may not be able to access the accelerator on a graphics card. That's why I stopped using a VM for Photoshop
If you are in need of both Windows and Linux software to operate on the same data / files, you can create a fat32 partition and pout them there. -- Roger Broseus Pls excuse auto-correction induzed tiepos. -----Original Message----- From: hans Schneidhofer <mei-m...@posteo.de> To: Xubuntu Support and User Discussions <xubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com> Sent: Thu, 30 May 2019 6:14 PM Subject: [xubuntu-users] virtual machine hi Roger hi list, my intension here is to install a furthermore xubuntu. The reason why, is on the actually machine normally I am using graphic-software like gimp, blender, inkscape and a lot more. On the planned 2nd machine I want to have mathematical Software - from freecad to FEM, octave and such things. In some cases my "endproducts" overlaps. This results in programs like 3D-Scans, rebuilding such 3d-Pointclouds to an Environment with houses, which have to build, also rebuildings from Photos, sometimes old Photos and so on. Another Case is, that freecad "can" render, but with blender I got more photorealistics. And again and again things have to be calculated or recalculated. Which VM should I choose for my Xubuntu 18.04 lts-machine ? I doesn't have enough experience with VM's and xubuntu - I never used one of them. And - so I wrote before, it is only for bridging from now to autum. An ideal solution in my eyes would be, to install such a virtual machine on an extra SSD, and after getting the newone machine, I could use this extra-SSD for that new machine as my new System-SSD. But I think, this is only a wishful thinking :-) is'nt it ? bye hans -- xubuntu-users mailing list xubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-users
