I have installed RealVNC for remote use. However, I need to enter my username and password. My password is a 64 character randomly generated password. I was hoping to be able to paste it in using the web console. I guess that isn't an option.

I am in the OS GUI and need to paste a 64 char password into a dialog box.

I have created an Ubuntu VM and I have installed the xo integration package. For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to paste into the VM from my workstation.

What I have tried so far is pasting what I need into the box next to the copy icon, clicking the icon, and then attempting to paste into the VM. But that doesn't work. There is nothing on the clipboard to paste.

Just for closure...

I followed all your helpful guidance and am now up and running. Thank you all for your assistance.

@olivierlambert I had VGA on. (Which must be the default.) Turned it off and advancing much farther now. Thank you.

First of all, thanks for all the help. xcp-ng has always helped me out.

I switched the template to use UEFI and it seems to be hanging (or I don't have enough patience).

@stormi

The directions say... "If you switch the console to shell mode and log in, the console shows errors in 'org.gnome.Shell.desktop'".

I don't know how t do that. I am only aware of the "default" shell. How do I switch to shell mode?

Best,
Chaim

@stormi said in Issue creating Ubuntu 18.04 desktop VM:

I think I've already seen this issue and that it was an ubuntu bug. See https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX265663

That looks very promising. Starting from scratch and taking this new info into account. I'll report back.

@olivierlambert
Same thing.

Crap. Typo. I am installing 18.04. So sorry about that. Didn't realize I typo in OP
