Linux VM 0.3.0

  • Fedora and KDE Plasma. The guest tools now support Fedora 44 Workstation, Fedora 45 KDE Plasma Desktop, and KDE Plasma on Ubuntu 26.04 (Kubuntu's desktop). The Guest Tools disc carries a package for Ubuntu and one for Fedora, and sh install.sh picks the right one.
  • The shared clipboard works in KDE Plasma, for text and images, both ways.
  • Shut Down works in KDE Plasma. With the guest tools, the VM's power button shuts Linux down instead of opening a logout prompt. So Shut Down in the app, and before an update, finishes on its own.
  • The VM's page shows its desktop, such as GNOME 50 or KDE Plasma 6.8, and whether the shared clipboard works.
  • New VMs are named after their installer image, such as "Fedora KDE".

To update the guest tools in a VM, open the LINUXVM-TOOLS disc in Linux's file manager. In KDE Plasma's Dolphin, click the disc to open it. Run sh install.sh in a terminal there, then log out and back in.

Fedora 45 Workstation, with GNOME 51, hasn't been tested yet, and the shared clipboard stays off there for now.
