Boxes: virtualización integrada
Among the new GNOME 3.4 will bring could include the new version of Epiphany (which is undergoing a redesign brutal even in its name, which as mentioned is simply "Web"), but also with attention to a hitherto neglected section: virtualization.
500x303 boxes1 Boxes: GNOME 3.4 integrated virtualization
Boxes is the name of an application to manage virtual machines created with Qemu and KVM and some GNOME developers to program began almost by accident. The result was so good we decided to get serious about polishing this solution, which has finally become the cited Boxes.
Boxes-developed by Vala, a language they say has greatly facilitated this utility, we can create and manage virtual machines, replacing virt-manager, who despite being a veteran solution is not too intended end user, Boxes-something to which you can see in action on video here does sort out without using other virtualization suites like Oracle VirtualBox fantastic.
The result is a paint application that has a really great and we'll see for sure in the next version of GNOME. In fact, you can download an early version available for GNOME 3.3.2, so if you want to evaluate, update your desktop with this development version of GNOME and ... to virtualize!
