Best way to access a Windows-XP virtual machine

rated 0 times [ 4] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 2485 / 3 Years ago, fri, july 9, 2021, 3:02:43

I have set up a virtual machine running windows XP (as guest) on an Ubuntu 11.04/64bit machine. The virtual host is using qemu-kvm.
Accessing the virtual windows using virt-manager is possible, but way to slow. Using rdp with tsclient is much better, but still not that fast.

Is there a better way to access the guest system?

Is VirtualBox that much besser when accessing the graphical windows desktop?

If you want something that really rocks, you'll probably want to have a look at SPICE, which works with KVM and the newest virt-manager. It really is something else. The last time I played with it on Ubuntu, it was a little difficult to get up and running, but it was definitely worth it. I know people have been working to make this easier, but I don't know how how far they've come.
