Re: [Libvir] New virt-manager release v0.2.0

I'm pleased to announce the availabilty of another snapshot / development release of virt-manager, version 0.2.0. The major new capabilities in this release include: * First cut of a wiziard for creating both paravirt & fullyvirt guest VMs. aka the gui equivalent of xenguest-install.py You can find out more about this in the new screenshots section: http://virt-manager.et.redhat.com/screenshots/install.html * An embedded serial console viewer - no need to go to the shell and use 'xm console' anymore. This is actually used for the paravirt guest instllation if your XenU kernel does not support the new VNC framebuffer (not yet in xen-unstable) * Hooked up the config dialog for adjusting vcpus & memory for active domains * Extended RFB protocol handler code to support the 'desktop resize' extensions in the VNC widget - so the graphical console has correct size when the guest switches screen resolutions The tar.gz for the release can be found on the download page: http://virt-manager.et.redhat.com/download.html NB, I'm not providing RPMs in my people.redhat.com YUM repo because we're intending to build this release straight into Fedora rawhide. I'll send a followup message when they're avaiable there. NB-2. there is a dependnacy on the 'xeninst' python library which is a new library built from re-factoring xenguest-install.py You can get this from rawhide in the python-xeninst RPM, or direct from the mercurial repository http://hg.et.redhat.com/virt/applications/xeninst--devel Regards, Dan. -- |=- Red Hat, Engineering, Emerging Technologies, Boston. +1 978 392 2496 -=| |=- Perl modules: http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ -=| |=- Projects: http://freshmeat.net/~danielpb/ -=| |=- GnuPG: 7D3B9505 F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 -=| -- Libvir-list mailing list Libvir-list(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
