Instead of relying on operating system support for multiseat configuration, a hypervisor can be configured to run multiple virtual machines, each configured to interface one connected seat by I/O virtualization methods. Input devices can be attached to the virtual machines through USB Redirection, and entire GPUs can be attached through Intel VT-d.
Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is a feature of Microsoft Windows that allows for using a Linux environment without the need for a separate virtual machine or dual booting. WSL is installed by default in Windows 11. [ 2 ]
Hyper-V is a native hypervisor developed by Microsoft; it can create virtual machines on x86-64 systems running Windows. [1] It is included in Pro and Enterprise editions of Windows NT (since Windows 8) as an optional feature to be manually enabled. [2]
The Linux console (and Linux virtual consoles) are implemented by the VT (virtual terminal) subsystem of the Linux kernel, and do not rely on any user space software. [3] This is in contrast to a terminal emulator , which is a user space process that emulates a terminal, and is typically used in a graphical display environment.
Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) is a free and open-source virtualization module in the Linux kernel that allows the kernel to function as a hypervisor. It was merged into the mainline Linux kernel in version 2.6.20, which was released on February 5, 2007. [1] KVM requires a processor with hardware virtualization extensions, such as Intel VT ...
Windows XP Mode (XPM) [37] [38] is a virtual machine package for Windows Virtual PC containing a pre-installed, licensed copy of Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3 as its guest OS. Previously, both the CPU and motherboard of the host had to support hardware virtualization, [ 39 ] but an update in early 2010 eliminated this requirement ...
VirtualBox may be installed on Microsoft Windows, macOS, Linux, Solaris and OpenSolaris. There are also ports to FreeBSD [5] and Genode. [6] It supports the creation and management of guest virtual machines running Windows, Linux, BSD, OS/2, Solaris, Haiku, and OSx86, [7] as well as limited virtualization of macOS guests on Apple hardware.
In open systems, a virtual terminal (VT) is an application service that: Allows host terminals on a multi-user network to interact with other hosts regardless of terminal type and characteristics, Allows remote log-on by local area network managers for the purpose of management,
