For sake of comparison with #macOS #Tahoe, two equivalent screenshots of a #Debian #UTM VM running #Trixie and #Gnome 48 with #dash_to_dock extension.
Installed #macOS #Tahoe Beta 1 in #UTM VM and gave it the same boring look I always do:
- Solid "Stone" background
- Dark Mode
- Blue highlight color
- Wallpaper tinting in windows disabled
- Always show scroll bars
In Accessibility → Display:
- Reduce transparency
- Differentiate w/o color
- Show window title icons
- Show toolbar button shapes
No #LiquidGlass for me…
Window corners are a bit too round for my taste, but I kinda like that toolbar buttons areas have a distinct background color.
Another call for help to my #macos #utm bubble: Anyone here running emulated Windows guests in UTM on macOS Sequoia? I use them irregularly and have lost the ability to connect to the internet. I used to use bridged mode, and still get an IP address from my router, but can't ping, resolve or browse any website. What do I need to do to get the VM to have internet?
Does anybody here have any experience with #UTM on MacOS ? Especially running Windows 11 on #MacOS?

🚨 New in SecPoint® Protector v66 – Smarter Anti-Spam with Enhanced RBL Management
We’ve released the latest firmware update for the SecPoint Protector UTM firewall! 🎉
With improved RBL (Reputation Block List) handling, v66 ensures faster, more accurate spam filtering and fewer delays — even in complex DNS setups.

@theDuesentrieb I asked for the highest-spec computer the company would buy me (which turned out to be an Apple MacBook M2). I then promptly installed a QEMU-based emulator and installed Debian Linux into the emulator. The emulated disk is fully encrypted. I allow the VM full use of all CPU cores and 100% of all memory and disk space.
If you do get a Apple computer, I highly recommend you buy UTM from the app store, it is by far the most cost-effective option, and works extremely well with Debian Aarch64. Once you install the qemu-guest-agent
package onto Linux, the Linux screen resolution will automatically match the #MacBook, copy-paste works seamlessly between #Linux and #MacOS. Desktop environments like #Cinnamon, #Xfce, #Gnome, and #KDEPlasma all allow you to select #HiDPI scaling which allows Linux to take full advantage of the #Apple “retina” display (it looks beautiful). The one and only drawback is that #QEMU cannot use Apple’s hardware multimedia codecs, so it falls back to software codecs, and the CPU just can’t keep up with things like video conferencing, or often even ordinary 720p video playback. I use Mac OS for only multimedia applications and video conferencing. For everything else, I continue to use Linux.
I recommend the bridge networking adapter so you can have two-way network communications between Linux and MacOS, this allows for file transfer between Mac and Linux via rsync
. The trade-off is that every time your Apple computer switches computers networks (e.g. between home and office), you must reset the networking services in Linux. If you choose the NAT network option Linux will always have network access directly via the MacOS interface, but you will not be able to easily transfer files between Mac and Linux.
The keyboard is the hardest thing to get used to, mostly that “super” and “alt” are swapped. Be sure to transpose those keys in the #UTM configuration. It is easy to configure the Apple keyboard to (for example) make caps-lock another control key.
⚠️ Word of warning for running Windows 11 with UTM:
Make sure you disable “Windows Hello” before you restart or you'll be locked-out of your account. It is automatically enabled if you sign-in with your Microsoft account.

In the VirtualBox case, the guest and host OSes can't communicate at all but both can communicate with other devices. Even though Apple Silicon has been out for years, ChatGPT claims that the bridged networking implementations are flaky. My last chance on Apple Silicon is to try UTM.
🐣🌸 Happy Easter from all of us at SecPoint! 🌸🐣
We wish you and your loved ones a joyful and peaceful holiday.

Запускаем Openwrt в виртуалке с отдельным адресом и socks прокси на Apple silicon
Запуск OpenWRT в виртуальной машине на macOS с отдельным IP-адресом и SOCKS-прокси В этой статье мы покажем, как запустить OpenWRT в виртуальной машине на macOS, используя бесплатный UTM и Apple Virtualization Framework — для экономии ресурсов и удобства. OpenWRT получает собственный IP-адрес через bridge-интерфейс, а SOCKS-прокси служит лишь примером одного из возможных применений виртуального роутера. Остальное — дело вашей фантазии.

🌘 密西根州荒野搜救隊 (MiBSAR):UTM 座標系統
➤ UTM 座標系統:專業導航者的選擇
✤ http://www.mibsar.com/LandNav/UTM/UTM.htm
本文詳述了通用橫向墨卡託 (UTM) 座標系統,由 Michael A. Neiger 撰寫,涵蓋了 UTM 系統的歷史、組成、使用方法以及與經緯度系統的比較。UTM 系統是一種國際定位參考系統,能精確識別地球表面位置,尤其適用於詳細地形圖上的導航,廣泛被專業的荒野導航者、搜救人員和軍事單位採用。文章強調 UTM 系統的優點,包括網格的均勻性、以公制為基礎,以及易於使用性,相較於經緯度系統更適合精確的陸地導航。
+ 真是詳盡的介紹,對於從事戶外活動或搜救工作的人來說,瞭解 UTM 系統非常重要。
+ 以前一直覺得地圖上的座標很複雜,這篇文章讓我對 UTM 系統有更清晰的理解了。

Exploring UTM and Linux on Apple Silicon
I bought an M3 MacBook Air last fall to experiment with AI tools and LLMs that were available for use on Apple Silicon. The M3 had more RAM than the M2 it replaced and a larger NVME drive. Those were important considerations. I wanted to install Fedora Asahi Linux on it eventually. To my dismay, I learned that the M3 was not supported. The Asahi Project is still working on support for M3 and M4 macOS machines. That news bummed me out when I read it. Recently, I discovered another way to run Linux on an M3 MacBook Air using UTM.
UTM is a virtualization software that can be installed on an M3, and there are a number of Linux virtual machines that can be downloaded and run at near-normal speeds on the M3. According to the project website, “UTM employs Apple’s Hypervisor virtualization framework to run ARM64 operating systems on Apple Silicon at near-native speeds.” This was great news, and I was eager to install it. I decided to use Homebrew to install the software.
% brew install --cask utm
Once the software was installed, I was ready to try it out. A dialog box appears, and you are invited to “Create a New Virtual Machine” or “Browse UTM Gallery,” a tab for the User Guide and one for support. I decided to browse the gallery and was pleasantly surprised to find several prebuilt Linux ARM64 machines ready to run.
Screen picture by Don Watkins CC by SA 4.0At its core, UTM operates on QEMU—a robust and versatile emulation software that has stood the test of time as a free and open-source solution. Despite its capabilities, QEMU’s extensive array of command-line options and settings can make it challenging to navigate and configure. UTM simplifies this process by offering the same robust functionality as QEMU while eliminating complexity, making it accessible to users without requiring expert-level setup.
I chose Debian 11 XFCE from one of the prebuilt machines, downloaded it quickly, and booted it up. The Debian machine has 1 gigabyte of RAM, a 20 GB disk drive, a VGA console, and an ARM64 architecture.
Screen picture by Don Watkins CC by SA 4.0The project’s documentation is excellent and extensive. It is open source with an Apache 2.0 license, and the code is available on Github. I’m still exploring and learning each time I use it. It’s fun to be able to use Linux on Apple Silicon at near-native speeds.
