great github project (great presentation too) little question : you present the use of RPI as the thin client of this presentation (which remains an excellent product in itself and for this task). something prohibited from taking something else to become the "thin client" or it is adaptable to other hardware like an old PC or an "official" thin client
Thanks i follow your instructions all went good now i am able to login but unable to see desktop getting error "unable to graphic server - spice proxy: error resolving: name or service not known" kindly help
Firstly, thank you for your very informative videos MRP. You have been a really big help in my journey of setting up a homelab. I've followed your instructions in the video, the only difference being I'm not PXE booting the RPi. When I try to connect to the VM, I'm getting a "Unable to connect to graphic server" error. I've been scouring the web for a solution but I haven't been able to find any. Has anyone else encountered this issue?
How you trying to connect to VM? From that error it sounds that you trying to VNC or RDP into VM which has no graphical interface. In another words, VM has no desktop UI.
The VM can be accessed with no issues when I try it via downloading the spice. Vv and opening it with virt viewer on a MacBook. For some reason it's not working on the RPi. The error code I'm receiving is Connection error(protocol error). I am able to telnet to my proxmox 3128 port from the RPi though so it's weird. I'm probably going to try installing a different OS on the RPi and see if I'm able to get this to work.
Another with the issue, Unable to connect to the graphic server - Spice proxy ************ name or service not known. Maybe something else needs installing on Proxmox?
As far as i know - not at the moment. Not sure if Script creator will add that in to this, still ... what you asking i want the same, already started to look in to that.
How RPi Thinclient is connecting to a source? Wifi or LAN? What speed is connection? How fast is your local network? A lot of factors plays up in performance of thinclient.
1. I use LAN 2. My LAN network is 1gbps 3.1 HP T630 4core4Theard for client 3.2 Elementary linux OS for VM I saw SPICE Protoco use too much CPU. Sometime, it going to 100% CPU of both client and VM. Do i have some misstake?
Unable to connect to the graphic server Could no connect proxy server xxxxxx:socket i/o timed out I dont know why it always show my like that. helpme! plz!
@@MRPtech I use Pi OS, Debian, elementary... All of them give the same error in PVE VDI show me all VM to Connect. But some error when i click Connect.
Thanks for posting - I got this working but when I click on Shell in my PVE and download the spice shortcut file there is no "vv" extension - any ideas ? (its file with no extension)
sorry this was on OSX using Firefox - on Chrome it works fine once I figured out homebrew and remote-viewer install - going to do it on the RPI next - cheers @@MRPtech
@@MRPtech I have SPICE slected as video output inside VM. But I also received the same error. "Could no connect proxy server xxxxxx:socket i/o timed out" Can you help me?
(google translate) Jakie masz połączenie pomiędzy RPi a serwerem Proxmox? Jeśli ładowanie zajmuje dużo czasu, może to być problem z siecią. Kolejna rzecz - czy Twój RPi jest mocny?
@@MRPtech Hello, I replaced RPI with a thin client and VM, I have the same effect on everything. :( maybe e-mail contact would be easier? (For me, yes). The connection is a 1G-based network, shadow and proxmox server connected only with a 1G switch, 2x proxmox servers, the same effect. Debian machines 2x cpu host i7 6gb ram. Both hosts are i7, one 4gen 2 - 6gen, both with 32GB RAM, one has NV Grid K1.
i had a quick look around but so far no luck. I did managed to get myself MacOS-Ventura virtualized in my proxmox server. Will start digging in to that and see if i can make something functioning.
Hello ! I did all the steps about 3 times, it always gave the same error on 13:15min video - "bash /usr/local/bin/vdiclient.py: env: bad interpreter: no such file or directory" any tips?
Great Work, thanks for sharing!🎉
great github project (great presentation too)
little question :
you present the use of RPI as the thin client of this presentation
(which remains an excellent product in itself and for this task).
something prohibited from taking something else to become the "thin client"
or it is adaptable to other hardware like an old PC or an "official" thin client
Thanks i follow your instructions all went good now i am able to login but unable to see desktop getting error "unable to graphic server - spice proxy: error resolving: name or service not known" kindly help
Same issue! And there doesn't seem to be a solution on the web.
wow, thanks!
Big Like 👍

Maybe something else needs installing on Proxmox?
Should we need to install anything on VM host?
My both VM and Client use too much CPU.
Thanks!
Thank you for this video! One question. What if a user has access to multiple clients? Will they be offered which client they want to access?
As far as i know - not at the moment.
Not sure if Script creator will add that in to this, still ... what you asking i want the same, already started to look in to that.
Spice very laggy when i open 3d soft (Blender 3D)
How to Inprove it?
Thanks!

Are you trying to PXE Boot RPi OS with Desktop UI?
@@MRPtech I use Pi OS, Debian, elementary... All of them give the same error
in PVE VDI show me all VM to Connect. But some error when i click Connect.
@@MRPtech My VM is Elementary Desktop UI.
Thanks so much!
Thanks for posting - I got this working but when I click on Shell in my PVE and download the spice shortcut file there is no "vv" extension - any ideas ? (its file with no extension)
Why do you click on shell and download spice file?
Rpi will connect to SPICE via Proxmox API and will do all spice file handling automatically
sorry this was on OSX using Firefox - on Chrome it works fine once I figured out homebrew and remote-viewer install - going to do it on the RPI next - cheers @@MRPtech
How can I use the vdi outside the network..?
I would use tailscale to connect client to a server.
@@MRPtech thanks any tutorials for that?
Ok maybe I am stupid bit I an unable to connect, I keep getting "Unable to connect to the graphic server" errors.
To which VM you trying to connect?
That error sounds like - Destination OS has no desktop UI
@@MRPtech I can assure it does have a Desktop UI as I can connect to it via noIP within Proxmox
And you have SPICE selected as video output inside Windows VM?
@@MRPtech I have SPICE slected as video output inside VM. But I also received the same error.
"Could no connect proxy server xxxxxx:socket i/o timed out"
Can you help me?
Hej dobry poradnik :) mam problem ciągle okienko przekroczono czas wejścia/wyjścia co mam zrobić ?

Dear Mrp! did you find the way to access VDI with macos clients somehow?
i had a quick look around but so far no luck.

4 times, the same error...any tip?
If you done chmod +x on that file. Why you running bash?
And it is *.py file which means it is Python and not BASH instructions.
