mwoodpatrickmx | Any pointers to docs on doing this would be most appreciated | 13:27:33 |
K900 | Doing what exactly? | 13:27:57 |
mwoodpatrickmx | Enabling Hyper-V, best abstraction layers on top of KVM. | 13:30:21 |
K900 | There are no abstraction layers on top of KVM | 13:31:45 |
K900 | Your KVM is an abstraction on top of Hyper-V | 13:31:52 |
K900 | Because WSL is a Hyper-V VM | 13:31:56 |

mwoodpatrickmx | Many 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 | I'm confused by what you're trying to do | 13:53:32 |
K900 | WSL still works with Hyper-V | 13:53:38 |
K900 | You probably want to run NixOS on WSL | 13:53:48 |
K900 | And then run your other VMs, whatever those are, on "pure" Hyper-V | 13:54:00 |
K900 | Instead of nesting them inside NixOS | 13:54:05 |
K900 | * Instead of nesting them inside NixOS on WSL | 13:54:08 |
mwoodpatrickmx | Getting experience using libvirt & virt-manager | 13:54:51 |
K900 | If you specifically want experience using libvirt, Hyper-V won't help you | 13:55:25 |
K900 | Because you'll be nesting VMs anyway | 13:55:31 |
K900 | The thing to avoid here is nesting VMs in general, not specifically nesting VMs inside WSL | 13:55:43 |
mwoodpatrickmx | Many thanks for the clarification | 13:57:08 |
mwoodpatrickmx | Has anyone got a shared clipboard working between nixos host and vm guest? I did see the below issue but there was no resolution.

bumperboat | is journald broke on wsl? | 02:12:18 |
K900 | No + | 02:23:30 |
K900 | * No? | 02:23:41 |
K900 | It looks like it didn't rotate for some reason | 02:29:35 |
bumperboat | why is --disk-usage say theres only 16M in use when there is 4.4G | 02:29:47 |
bumperboat | and i have to specify --directory /var/log/journal to get the right answer | 02:30:14 |
bumperboat | i think its some goofy msft sytemd thing | 02:33:01 |
bumperboat | interested in if yours does the same tho | 02:33:39 |
