v2.2.3 (Beta)

[osy]

Note: this beta build has breaking changes. Please read the notes below for more information.

Installation

Visit https://getutm.app/install/ for the most up to date installation instructions.

New Features (v2.2.0)

• (macOS 11.3+ Only) Bridged networking and shared networking support. You can configure it in the Network settings for your VM.
• (macOS 11+ and iOS 13+) GPU acceleration for OpenGL on Linux. Use virtio-ramfb or virtio-gpu-gl-pci display device and compatible Linux drivers (most modern Linux distros will have it already installed). Windows is not supported because there is currently no virtio-gpu driver for Windows that supports 3D acceleration.

Changes (v2.2.2)

• (iOS) Enable OpenGL acceleration for iOS 11-12
• (iOS 15+) Increased memory limit for supported devices (M1 iPads currently)
• (macOS) Fix layout issues in settings on macOS Monterey (VM configuration sheet controls are clipped on macOS 12 #2644)
• (macOS) Fix capturing of hotkeys (such as Cmd+Tab) (Global Shortcuts are not intercepted by client, even when in fullscreen with capture pointer enabled #2677)
• Disable port forwarding options for shared & bridged networking
• Fixed crash when PPC screamer is selected on iOS (currently this is still not supported)
• Refactored non-OpenGL rendering code, fixing some random crashes seen in TestFlight reports.

Changes (v2.2.3)

• (iOS) When a mouse/trackpad is already connected when UTM starts up, it will now be properly detected (UTM cannot adjust graphics and cursor settings. #3013)
• (iOS) Handle touch and Apple Pencil input while the mouse is captured (Apple Pencil and touch only drags the cursor when a keyboard is attached #2669)
• Windows BSOD on boot/setup due to PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (Windows won’t boot or install on 2.2.0 #2721)
• EFI Boot is now a configurable option: by default new VMs created for pc, q35, and virt* machines will have EFI enabled. In previous versions, EFI is only enabled for virt* machines. Due to compatibility with boot, existing pc and q35 VMs will NOT have EFI enabled and must be manually turned on in Settings -> System -> Advanced Configuration -> UEFI Boot. This may also require you to re-install the bootloader on your VM. As part of this change, EFI variables will also be properly handled (on both ARM and x86 VMs). Note that if you've configured a custom pflash device for your VM, the new UEFI Boot option will take no effect (same as before).
• Added virtio-ramfb-gl device to support GPU Acceleration. On previous beta builds, GL is enabled automatically for virtio-ramfb. Now, that display device will not get GPU acceleration. This is to be more consistent with the other -gl display devices. By default, new VMs created will have virtio-ramfb-gl selected for virt devices (ARM) and virtio-vga-gl selected for q35 and pc devices (x86). If you wish to use GPU acceleration on an existing VM, you need to change your display device to one of these two recommended devices (or any device with -gl in the name).

Getting this warning / error on opening:

Also looking at the GH Actions logs the notarization stapling failed?

[osy]

Ugh alright

[osy]

It's been reuploaded.

[ktprograms]

What was the problem?

[osy]

Apple’s servers sometimes lag so when you try to staple immediately after seeing the notarization is successful it may still fail. This just happens sometimes.

[muratdk23]

Is gpu acceleration working on windows?

[lilvadim]

I guess no, because there's no graphics drivers for windows for virtualization in qemu yet.
