Just recently read about the spice protocol for remote display/audio/etc, and it looks very promising.  Finally got my new build system up and running on Ubuntu (turns out that “nomodeset” as a kernel option was key to that, and had to work around through a few hoops… still not sure whether it’s running UEFI or typical, but it’s running, so I’m done caring).  Next step is to get a couple of virtual machines running, and see if I can justify shutting down a couple of other systems and end up saving power, as I suspect my new build is quite a bit hungrier for juice than the miscellaneous small boxes I currently run.  Will have to hang the Kill-A-Watt off it at some point and test to be sure.
