Hey there. I’m not new to whonix and I use it from a lot of time always with VirtualBox.
However since VB always gave me problems of instability I decided to try KVM.
I installed KVM on Lubuntu, latest stable version if that matters.
What I did was following the official guide about KVM on whonix wiki.
With a little difference. B4 importing the images I edited the .xml files.
Simply I changed their location to NOT store the machine files in the default location that is used by KVM.
Cause I wanted both of them to stay in a Veracrypt volume.
Tried whonix gateway and it works gr8. Both the graphical version, both the other version with 192 mb of RAM.
It’s super fast, maybe more than VirtualBox.
Anyway whonix workstation doesn’t work. At the very first boot it’s does stop right after the “Starting Login Manager (graphical desktop environment) kdm in 10 seconds, unless you abort using ctrl +c bla bla blabla”
After that:
Failed to start login service…
Stopping login service…
stopped login service.
Starting login service…
Stopping login service…
stopped login service.
Starting login service…
And it continues for a few times than this happens:
Failed to start network manager
Could not start kdm. Please report this bug!
Why whonix gateway works gr8 and workstation doesnt?
