Starting with Nitrux 5.0.0, we will discontinue integration and support features for running Nitrux as a guest OS. While Nitrux will continue to run in most hypervisors, we no longer include components such as SPICE integration, the QXL X.Org driver, and the Hyper-V modules, daemons, and OpenRC services.
Despite our previous efforts to provide guidance, we repeatedly encountered users applying incorrect configurations that further limited performance in already-constrained virtualized environments, along with other issues stemming from hypervisor quirks. We never intended Virtual Machines to be the platform for using Nitrux.
Nitrux is tuned and optimized for physical systems, where users can experience its design, performance, and intent as we built it.
Important Notes
We will close bug reports about running Nitrux as a guest VM.
