发帖数: 289 | 1 I have found VMware player and Virtualbox; both of them are free. But I am
not sure which one is better. So can some one suggest a virtual machine for
me? I'd like to run Linux on my home pc with vista.
Thanks. |

还是喜欢vbox一些，不过最新的版本的clipboard sharing 是不是的出些问题，比较烦。

发帖数: 3020 | 13 最新版是不好，不如我以前用的1。6版。
pplive插件看视频，全凭后就别想回去了，
只能强制关机，如果有耐心可以等个半钟头。
vbox确实不错，但不建议用新版本。
貌似2。14是最好的，用过的说说，
我也想重装vbox.
烦。

There is another option that is faster and more integrated into windows.
http://www.ulteo.com/home/en/virtualdesktop?autolang=en
it is based on coLinux (a linux kernel running as windows application).
But this ulteo virtual desktop is much easier to install.

发帖数: 289 | 18 Thanks for your reply. I have been using Linux for several years, but I
have never used a virtual machine before. I was against using VM before. :)
After I got a relatively powerful computer, I immediately changed my mind.

发帖数: 800 | 19 如果有多于一个的屏幕，只能用VMWare。 VBox对多屏幕的支持不是很好，或者说根本
没有。唯一的办法好像就是headless vm，然后rdesktop分别登录两个viewport,效果很
差。对我来说唯一的优点好像就是在compiz兼容很好，VMWare在 Compiz下有各种各样
的问题。不过Compiz的问题多了去了，不能算在VMWare的头上。
我自己大概会这么选，如果只有单屏，或者非用compiz,用vbox.如果要多屏幕支持，只
能用VMWare.我现在正在用VMWare workstation 6.5, Compiz只能用0.82,有些小问题但
基本上可以忍受。
后来想想Compiz才是我诸多麻烦的根源，但是我还真喜欢这些个eye candy. |

偶就是用xinerama 配置两个显示器合成一个大的，没见虚拟机有啥意见的说

发帖数: 800 | 22 这样的话maximize窗口就覆盖两个显示器，不是很喜欢。我倒是这样用过两天，不过真
的不爽。其实tweak一下应该也行，或者用compiz grid,懒得折腾了。
