Re: GUI-Login on bookworm-VM in a cloud
Christoph,
I think this statement holds the answer:
https://opennebula.io/blog/announcements/new-maintenance-release-opennebula683/
New Features:
OpenNebula 6.8.3 introduces support for Debian 12 and removes support for Debian 10.
Thus my guess is that OpenNebula versions before 6.8.3 do not support Debian 12.

Thanks to "https://github.com/OpenNebula/minione"; I now have a full OpenNebula 6.8.0 all in one installation running in a KVM VM.
I have been able to download a Debian 11 template from the OpenNebula Marketplace, then create a Debian 11 VM, and ssh into it.

Next I want to learn how to create a Debian 11 VM with KDE installed.
I think I need to learn how to "the cloud administrator must prepare a set of Templates and Images to make them available to the cloud users".

Other pages that could help me.

I have much to learn.

Thank you for testing the above. This indicates the issue you are having might not be directly a Debian Distribution issue. However more testing is required to find what is the issue.
What version of OpenNebula are you using?
My thoughts are that OpenNebula updates various settings in the VM as it creates/runs the VM, and since OpenNebula does not support Debian 12 as a OS for installing OpenNebula, maybe they have yet to design OpenNebula to create/manage Debian 12 instances?
To backup this theory, it seems that Debian 12 support is introduced in version 6.8.3.

Thank you for introducing me to OpenNebula. It looks quite impressive.
