Yay, the networking is working in the guest OS now! I had to change the bridge from "br0" to "virbr0" to make it work. Downloading updates in the guest OS now, then I'll get the bi-di clipboard working in it.

Looks like I haven't quite worked out the networking in #qemu, #kvm & #virt_manager yet either. My #TrisquelGNU Mini guest has no Internet connection yet. I'll keep plugging on and learning with it though. Any suggestions or advice would be welcome.

@lenovo@fsf I got onto the #Trisquel channel on Freenode IRC and asked about this WIFI problem, and was told that my Intel WLAN adaptor is not fully free software compliant, that's why it doesn't work in #TrisquelGNU. Now using a USB WLAN adaptor, and it works fine!
#InstallFest
@lenovo@Lenovo, for a definition of "#FreedomCompatible" hardware, as endorsed by the @FSF (as far as I understand it), see https://t.co/nBfXVXGfjA
I'm still learning about all of this, hardware that respects end-users' #freedoms.
On the eve of the latest @lubuntudesktop release, I'm wondering about the https://t.co/zbZXZSgoMe https://t.co/RidSQKWodu #DMCA controversy with @fossasia and @lubuntuofficial. Even Wikipedia doesn't seem to know what's going on! I've been using https://t.co/zbZXZSgoMe for years.
The limitation, from what I see on the @Lenovo website, seems to be the internal display itself, not the graphics chipset.

External display can handle up to 2560x1600, but nothing better than 1366 x 768 on the internal display?
#TrisquelGNU#InstallFest
Before I go trying to fix something that isn't actually broken, can someone tell me please, the @Lenovo#LenovoThinkPadT420 video is currently 1366x768, is that the best it will do? Changing the #videodriver won't help? I'm using #TrisquelGNU v8.0 #Flidas#GNULinux i915 driver.
For myself, I'm now using #TrisquelGNU rather than #Lubuntu anyway, so it doesn't really matter to me personally, but I am keen to know what gives with the https://t.co/RidSQKWodu vs https://t.co/zbZXZSgoMe debate, with #DMCA threats being thrown around between #FOSS players.
I didn't get the "first subject" honoursᵃ, but maybe @leslielauralive will look at this question still anyway. I've seen other little digs between the two #Lubuntu website factions since I started this thread, and more users confused. #DevRel

@gKrishnaKS@lenovo@KeePass TBH, I haven't had a good look at the Acer for drivers yet. As long as it does FB, wifey is happy, haha. Device drivers? Who needs 'em! 😆
Just returned from a friend's place, who is getting the #CompaqPresarioC700 from my #InstallFest. Convinced him to change to #TrisquelGNU as well. I'm his local #Linux guru, so it makes sense to follow my lead. We all need someone to learn from. @MakerJakes taught me heaps! Thx!
@gKrishnaKS@lenovo Almost, but I was a good #Linux geek and used the CLI this time, using "lspci -nnk | grep VGA"
Yeah, I copy/pasted the command from elsewhere. I'm still a bit weak on my CLI-fu, but I'm saving the results of these in my hardware records in @Keepass. Easier with the text output.
