 @NerdyDad said in What Are You Doing Right Now: @Tim_G said in What Are You Doing Right Now: Trying to figure out where to get and how to install KVM Windows guest drivers on Fedora. Thought there'd be a simple .iso or something to install it from, doesn't appear that way and is looking like it will be a pain. Coming from a Linux newb, but wouldn't you just mount it like another USB drive or something? That's the problem, mount what? I can't even find anything. Just a web of links inception style, and I don't feel like spending 10's of hours doing something that should be so simple.

 User: Windows Defender keeps popping up about malware. Is this something you need to look at? 
 Me: Yes. . .

 We're going trough a printer audit right now and all of these departments are buying printers randomly so we have to keep re-auditing departments. You can't make this shit up.

If you're looking for SPICE drivers (if you're using Virt-manager) then go here. https://www.spice-space.org/download.html

 Stuck on eternal hold with AT&T support.... 22 minutes and counting. Part of that time was waiting for them to transfer me to the wrong support line. I told them 3x we don't have U-Verse because we are a business. We have biz class fiber, don't transfer me to your crappy residential overseas support...

 @scottalanmiller said in What Are You Doing Right Now: Just got my Korora 25 install fully updated. So far, working great. I'm on Cinnamon, of course. I just run dnf-automatic. I don't feel like messing with that ha.

I just did this process two days ago so feel free to post a new topic and a few of us who have done it recently will comment. If you run into trouble.

 Which model did you get? How many nodes?

 @scottalanmiller said in What Are You Doing Right Now: Which model did you get? How many nodes? A small one. an 1150 with only 3 nodes.

The 1150 is often the high memory density choice, perfect for the majority of workloads.

I think that you can tune up the 1150 to that for a bit less than that.
