@@nepalposttv If you mean on a non-Apple device, the answer is no. There is an approach called Hackintosh which attempts to install a hacked version of an Apple OS. Chris did a video on this a few years ago. It has serious limitations IF you can get it to work. Apple’s move to the M1 chip pretty much rules this out.

Man that all looks amazing, I would love to see a more in depth explanation of the Windows VM integration as well as the whole Arch side setup!

Hi Chris, What would be *VERY* interesting is a detailed walkthrough-guide on your "not just a VM, but a *specialized* VM". As soon as I heard "GPU passthrough", I immediately got to the edge of my seat. I'm a long-time Linux wannabe (using penguin only for my selfmade NAS so far) and THE ONLY things that stop me from swithcing to Linux are: - Games which I *DO* want to play with DLSS/hdr/etc - Win-only professional CG software. We all hate adobe and yet we all are still stuck with it.. ... But also, we all have CPUs with a plenty of cores nowadays. Even if I'd have to dedicate one core / 2 threads from my 8/16 - I'd immediately switch to Manjaro with no second thought, *BUT ONLY IF* I'd get *exactly* the same full "windows-on-bare-metal" experience in any other sense. And I believe, there are plenty of people like me. The entire CG community basically consists of people who are either adepts of Tim Cook cult or looking for any way to avoid upcoming forced migration to Win11.

@Fantastica I believe, they're convoluted because a "good™" virtualization is itself convoluted. But yeah, the lack of tutorials on the subject kills me. Those, which do exist - they're definitely not for beginners. Not even for advanced users. Not for "power-users". They're for literal sysadmins, who do this stuff as their main job they dedicated their whole life to. Being a power user myself, actively promoting stuff like KeePass, PowerToys, SyncThing, DoubleCommander and even maintaining my own self-made home NAS, I'm still overwhelmed by how steep the learning curve for " *performant* Windows on a VM" is. It's not even a curve. It's a wall. Inclined TOWARDS user. And almost falling to crush them.

I think the boot entry name is an artifact from `archinstall`. Apologies for the half confusing default :) We can add `arch_` to the entry name.

that is insanely clean and really lean. I personally am not a fan of the top menu items (feel like the benefit of that information vs the space isn't worth). But I will say that is probably my goal setup. It's so dang snappy and seems like a great work setup.

Love the tutorials as always well-prepared end easy to understand - Thanks for the effort and time taken to make it easier for us to learn and grow.

i've been daily driving hyprland for almost a year now solidly and I couldn't have had a better time. Literally PERFECT

Looks amazing And we should appreciate the hardwork you do

Nice to see what came from that live stream Chris, I had to leave before it ended. Hyprland looks awesome, and I'll have to play around with it if I ever finish my other projects. I can't wait for Wayland to be adopted into more desktop and tiling managers, it's why I'm using Gnome right now.

This is like the best I've seen your desktop and I was a fan of the og ArchTitus the fluidity was so smooth with hardware in consideration

Chris, this setup was truly nice to see. You should def make a video about this.

It nice to see people doing some great design the layout.

Looking forward to seeing how this turns out in the future. Looks great so far.

Maaaann, that look gorgeous! It brought me back to 2009/10 CompizFusion times but with all the current improvements!

Nice to see there's something like quick passthrough now. The last time I had a setup like that I had to do everything manually which was by no means an easy feat. Must have taken an incredible amount of work to make QuickPassthrough

Good to see you again. I value your information that you give

Naming your store CTTstore is both, something I should expect and on the other hand, the most genius name style a YT channel store can have nowadays xP

Every time I watch your videos, your desktops make me wanna forget all about Windows. This new one looks utterly awesome. I'm slowly getting there.

Unrelated but i wanted to thank you i went through your old videos and was able to improve network and applications load speed 10x. Most any application i use immediately starts and the more clunky ones take mere seconds

This is THE ... i must try to do it!!!! just feeling it Chris the open windows just for the feel... ufff. and that vm taking to another world is crazy!~

Nice job. The env makes my temps rise - awesome.

Love the video and your UI and animation looks amazing

I recently setup Hyprland (now that I have an AMD card) and it's been pretty incredible. No issues getting it going on Arch, but I did need to use the AUR extensively and had to use Xwayland for some things. My only issue with Hyprland is that I realized that I really don't like auto tilers. I've been using i3 for a couple years now and it's just better for me. My plan is to finish configuring Sway and ultimately move to that, but it's a pain to get that to where Hyprland is out of the box. These wayland based tilers are incredible and wayland is ready for prime time, but I also have no issues using Xorg (I'm in i3 right now). What I time to be alive.

Such a cool video. That setup looks amazing!

outstanding! eagerly waiting for installation video.

The Win VM is exactly what I’m looking for and would love to see a video on that setup.

I’ve been using hyprland for a while now and while I did have to relearn a bunch of things, I found myself walking away actually preferring those. My favorite Wayland native app is the foot terminal, which operates on a daemon/client mode (kind of like emacs) and it is so damn fast.

Thanks for the quickpassthrough shoutout! i should be back to working on it after march as i am in the middle of sorting out personal stuff and have been for a while, however i made sure to get quickpassthrough feature complete for passing through your 2nd graphic card before i had to go on my hiatus and i have actually been using it for all my passthrough VMs for the past year. The only thing it does not handle as of right now is single gpu passthrough and taking into account systems with an active ACS override in either kernel or firmware level (i have a motherboard with firmware level ACS override, its pretty sweet), other than that the project is stable 😄

That looks really slick! I would love to watch a video that slows down and goes into great detail on what you did and how.

This one of your coolest videos on a long time! Cheers! 🍻

Man, your videos are super nice. continue !!!

AWESOME this is cool cant wait to see what you do with it

Amazing video man! Would love to see how you sett up the vm through Looking Glass!🙌🏻

cant wait for the fully automated video this looks amazing

That's slick. I'm inspired.. thank you

Thanks you for learning me about KVM and QEMU now I'm in my learning curve to do that in my Linux mint pc

This is great content. More Wayland VM stuff, more VM GPU Passthrough and preferably more Arch Linux with setup of your own repo so that you can test and update the packages whenever you feel like.

Subscribed! Amazing content, thank you!

now I've got to revisit my Hyprland experience -- it is awesome

looks buttery smooth

I am looking forward more details about this VM and your Arch setup! And I would be really happy (and not just I am) to have a script for automation of your Arch setup!

Finally got this thing running well. This needs more attention! More vids on this for sure pls!

Spun this up last week. The twm was great; being able to infinitely open within each window based on where your mouse is pointed is a pretty cool feature. Sure it's only marginally useful, since a teeny-tiny window inside another teeny-tiny is un-usable but still, cool. Edit: And SDDM isn't the only login manager having problems on this spin of ARCO. I used LY and also had issues.

Chris "Fancy Desktop" Titus. Looks good, man 💪😎

That's a beautiful desktop. I'd never log off with a setup like that.

Great video! I hope you make a video on running a Windows VM in your desktop and how to pass everything through. I was considering having separate windows and Linux boxes, but I like the idea of having a nice machine that can run both.

Amazing job! 👍

I am definitely doing this on my new system

Very Clean. Very Nice.

This video came out in perfect timing as I watched the first half of the stream but I never knew what the end result was. The question I wanted to ask is does Looking Glass work for single GPU solutions or you have to use a dual setup like the one you have here?

Looks amazing!

I would love to see a detailed video on how to set up your current VM set up!

Nearly got a heart attack when that "Windows Update" showed up in the bottom right corner. I still have nightmares of that. So relieved I don't have to use Windows anymore. That thing is like Russian Roulette

I'd love to switch to this kind of setup. I'm wondering how user friendly can looking glass and windows vms get. I'd rather have windows VM in linux than linux VM in windows (wsl2 is awkward when it comes to networking).

This is awesome. Please make a script to do all of this!!! And I love what you did with your windows virtual machine

"because that's what I'm known for" 😜 lmao 🤣 blow it up!

Awesome desktop! Want to see more 😄

This is beautiful !

I havent touched linux in over 6 months, this put a fire in me again gonna try to set up an environment again hopefully tomorrow like this and go thru all the passthru stuff. cheers!

a script would be wonderful. thanks for the informative video!

If people want to switch desktops, have fun! I don't do it anymore, I just change the wallpaper. I have a systemtray, I use xsetroot for some extra things (date,time,RAM-usage, whatever you want) and I have a panel and dmenu and a lot of hotkeys. What more do you need on a desktop?

Nice to see that iam not the only one, who changes his wm, styles and toolsets frequently ;)

The animation in insane! :)

5:30 I like the system monitoring in the system tray. That's a cool idea. Maybe I will look into getting a system monitor for my Linux's taskbar. I already have them as widgets on my Linux Mint and my Windows 10 also has a System Monitor widget on the desktop (Win10 doesn't typically support desktop widgets, but my Win10 is special because I did special tweaks).

man I had a lot of fun and success installing via your ArchTitus script. You really should make an update with this new bleeding edge setup

I am so excited to start my linux journey. I been mucking around with it from time to time, in VM's, nothing serious. But I finally got a NAS, to run my Plex Media Server, and host all my files, and Linux is getting much closer to being perfect for gaming. Im taking the dive now. My NAS is in the midst of checking drives and creating its raid setup. I should be in Linux tonight... While I am comfortable with terminal commands (not knowing syntax, but I understand the concept), I still think I will go Mint, just because I do need a stable daily driver. But this is a CLEAN setup. This right here is goals.

That looks really awesome! Hopefully you'll make a tutorial on all of this.

The AMD Ryzen 5000 series are great CPUs. The one you're running is pretty solid 6c/12t. I'm running a 5800x myself, and see no reason to upgrade. Right now I'm working on migrating my data to a new SSD so I can free up a couple of the ones I'm currently using so I can do some Linux learning and experimenting. I'm glad you put out these videos, so when I'm ready, I can go through and dive into the Linux world.
