a lot of different desktops / window manager for Linux there. The two main "families" of window manager based on either Gnome or KDE. Gnome is written to the GTK + (GIMP Toolkit) libraries and KDE is written to use the Qt libraries.
testing this is not to test as simple as Gnome and KDE examination. The test matrix is a little more because you can run the GTK + toolkit written with KDE window manager applications. Similarly, you can applications written with the Qt libraries are executed with the Gnome window manager.
In the version 1.0 release, we ran the window manager (ie Gnome) under the same user as our other services. This was aimed at preventing unintended side effect, run KDE and Qt-based applications that will not run under Gnome.
Therefore, the Tech Preview and v1.0, Linux VDA supports the Gnome window manager and applications that use the GTK + libraries used. This means it supports 1 of 4 possible combinations of the two major families of window manager that was limiting
. For example:
| Window Manager | application type | |
| GTK + -based | Qt-based | |
| Gnome | ✔ | ✘ |
| KDE | ✘ | ✘ |
for v1.1, we have addressed this and the Linux VDA now supports all of the Gnome and KDE combinations - the end users give a wider range of window managers and applications who can use it with the Linux VDA
, for example :.
| Window Manager | application type | |
| GTK + -based | Qt-based | |
| Gnome | ✔ | ✔ |
| KDE | ✔ | ✔ |
There is another small detail that the test matrix is also growing which is not mentioned above, and that the various versions of Gnome and KDE. For the Linux distributions of Linux supports virtual desktop, which we tested and support Gnome 2.x, 3.x Gnome and KDE 4.x.
we hope that this new Linux VDA explains v1.1 functionality and gives you an insight into what worked the Linux virtual desktop has been since the Version 1.0 release.
