After posting my initial blog post (http://kernelreloaded.blog385.com/index.php/archives/fedora-virtualization-has-rough-edges/) and through discussion in comments and also in reported bugs I saw the great potential of virt-manager on Fedora as desktop virtualization tool that could replace likes of VMWare and VirtualBox but it needed some UI and usability polish. Please take use case of installing Fedora or Ubuntu in virt-manager as benchmarks or ease of use for new users. How easy/hard is it to install Fedora/Ubuntu as virtual machines in virt-manager? Any install issues? How well do they work? Etc... I covered some of that in my previously mentioned blog post and came to some later what would make virt-manager easier to use. After looking more deeply in virt-manager it UI indeed looks a bit clunky and assumes you are familiar with the way it works, not user friendly for new users. For new users of virt-manager it would be great if somehow more emphasized in UI is done on explaining that there are these things called "storage pools" and also that there are two storage pools by default; one in /var and other in /home directory. Fedora community has educated me to put any suggestions as constructive as possible and I did that in two RFEs and hope they are seeded in fertile soil and that developers see opportunity to improve usability of virt-manager Here are two RFEs, please comment on them: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=557103 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=557107 Cheers! -- pratite me na twitteru - www.twitter.com/valentt http://kernelreloaded.blog385.com/ linux, blog, anime, spirituality, windsurf, wireless registered as user #367004 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org.
