![]() ![]() ![]() Intel agrees and has made hand-off of such chores to accelerator cards a feature of its forthcoming Sapphire Rapids Xeon server processor. Virtzilla thinks the latter effort has the potential to create a new normal for data centre architecture in which CPU cores are relieved of the need to do housekeeping work like running network traffic. The other is Project Monterey – an effort to get ESXi running on accelerator cards. One is the "fling" that runs on devices including the Raspberry Pi. VMware has two other efforts to bring its flagship ESXi hypervisor to Arm silicon. Fusion 13 Player is free for personal use, and commercial licenses for both versions are. Whenever Fusion for M1 arrives, it has competition waiting in the form of Parallels Desktop which, as we wrote last month, does a very fine job of running Windows 10 on Apple silicon. The software supports OpenGL 4.3 in Windows and Linux VMs on Intel and in Linux VMs on Apple silicon. Connections to VMs on other VMware hypervisors on other architectures will be possible.For now, Ubuntu VMs can only do 3D with on-CPU graphics. Support for GPU-equipped VMs is on the development roadmap."We have to use a whole different set of APIs, and that breaks ESXi compatibility," Roy wrote. Windows 10 will work, but Fusion will ship without drivers nor VMware Tools, and won't be supported because Microsoft currently does not sell licences of Windows 10 Arm for virtual machines.Roy answered a few questions about Fusion for M1's features and revealed: If VMware holds true to form the product will be real by year's end – maybe even in early October at the VMworld gabfest, at which new cuts of VMware's desktop hypervisors have often been released. Later tweets from Roy suggest that a public tech preview will follow in a couple of weeks. ![]() We're not taking _everyone_ just yet, but you can submit a request to join here: įull Public TP drops in about 2 weeks! - Michael Roy September 8, 2021 Michael Roy, who oversees VMware's Fusion and Workstation desktop hypervisors, took to Twitter with the news that Fusion for M1 is now in a closed tech preview.Īre you interested in joining our Private Tech Preview for on silicon? Most affordable KVM switches I’ve seen are trash and the well-built ones are rarely happy to work cross-platform & USB.VMware has kind-of announced a hypervisor for Arm processors, or at least one of them: Apple's M1 system-on-a-chip. Guess I need to find a usable USB KVM switch, soon. It would be nice if Apple at least sold a standalone display, so that when I finally can buy a new gaming PC (GPU shortages & pricing are insane), I don’t ALSO need to have TWO displays on my already-crowded desk. Result: own two computers again (consoles can bite my shiny metal ass). Now Apple is moving away from Macs even being able to run intel Windows software at all. Sadly, there hasn’t been a suitable desktop Mac in almost a decade (GPU, heat, etc). Installation on VMware Fusion Create a custom virtual machine. See below for limitations, workarounds and other issues. The setup didn’t need to be 100% equal to a Windows PC in performance, just be comparable. VMware Fusion for M1 itself is just a preview. It used to be that we could have a Mac for both Mac OS and Windows. Unfortunately, gaming on Macs is nowhere near the level of gaming on Windows. The VMware Tools ISO will be mounted to your VM as the D: drive. Click Install on the dialog when prompted. From the VMware Fusion menu bar, select Virtual Machine > Install VMware Tools. The Windows command line prompt will be replaced by a PowerShell prompt. Sounds simple to you, doesn’t it? Thing is, I don’t want to have TWO computers to maintain. Instead, press Shift-fn-F10 to open a command line prompt. If you need to run Windows then buy a Windows PC. ![]()
