VMware Modern Apps and Multi-Cloud Livefire Ubuntu Desktop Tour
VMware's Modern Apps and Multi-Cloud Livefire deliveries make use of a Horizon Ubuntu Desktop that I built and maintain. This video provides a tour of the features this desktop offers to Livefire Attendees. With a variety of Kubernetes related console tools and many things not even shown in the video, you may find this to be a helpful Linux VM for your use as well. The desktop build is RDP ready with sound working via RDP.
In short, the Livefire desktop is a custom packer scripted build of Ubuntu 22.04.2 with a bunch of tools installed as part of the build.
