@mwoodpatrickmx:matrix.orgmwoodpatrickmxAny pointers to docs on doing this would be most appreciated13:27:33
@k900:0upti.meK900Doing what exactly?13:27:57
@mwoodpatrickmx:matrix.orgmwoodpatrickmxEnabling Hyper-V, best abstraction layers on top of KVM.13:30:21
@k900:0upti.meK900There are no abstraction layers on top of KVM13:31:45
@k900:0upti.meK900Your KVM is an abstraction on top of Hyper-V13:31:52
@k900:0upti.meK900Because WSL is a Hyper-V VM13:31:56
@k900:0upti.meK900https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/about/13:32:10
@mwoodpatrickmx:matrix.orgmwoodpatrickmxMany thanks for the pointer, its been a while since I read that article. Any pointers to docs on running NixOS under Hyper-V?13:53:06
@k900:0upti.meK900I'm confused by what you're trying to do13:53:32
@k900:0upti.meK900WSL still works with Hyper-V13:53:38
@k900:0upti.meK900You probably want to run NixOS on WSL13:53:48
@k900:0upti.meK900And then run your other VMs, whatever those are, on "pure" Hyper-V13:54:00
@k900:0upti.meK900Instead of nesting them inside NixOS13:54:05
@k900:0upti.meK900* Instead of nesting them inside NixOS on WSL13:54:08
@mwoodpatrickmx:matrix.orgmwoodpatrickmxGetting experience using libvirt & virt-manager13:54:51
@k900:0upti.meK900 If you specifically want experience using libvirt, Hyper-V won't help you 13:55:25
@k900:0upti.meK900Because you'll be nesting VMs anyway13:55:31
@k900:0upti.meK900 The thing to avoid here is nesting VMs in general, not specifically nesting VMs inside WSL 13:55:43
@mwoodpatrickmx:matrix.orgmwoodpatrickmxMany thanks for the clarification13:57:08
@mwoodpatrickmx:matrix.orgmwoodpatrickmxHas anyone got a shared clipboard working between nixos host and vm guest? I did see the below issue but there was no resolution. https://discourse.nixos.org/t/how-can-i-get-a-shared-clipboard-for-nixos-virtual-machine-with-gnome/42615/514:27:50

@k900:0upti.meK900It looks like it didn't rotate for some reason 02:29:35
@bumperboat:matrix.orgbumperboatwhy is --disk-usage say theres only 16M in use when there is 4.4G02:29:47
@bumperboat:matrix.orgbumperboatand i have to specify --directory /var/log/journal to get the right answer02:30:14
