Hello,
qvm-run multimedia nautilus and nothing happens, no error, nothing.
If I try with firefox it is the same and multimedia is up and running, with a green mark point.
Closing multimedia vm last time had to kill it.
It is a standard VM depending on a template that works with other VMs.
Any Idea?

No, checking again if I put multimedia dependent from another template works, so the problem is the template.
Last thing I did with the template was install a custom disposable VM connected with the template. I did not know that this may end damaging the template.

you try to run nautilus from a terminal session to “multimedia”? If it
doesn’t start, that’s the issue.
Cannot test it because neither gnome-terminal nor term start, so? Anyway I prepared a new template, reinstalled everything, even the printer, and it works, but now I am scared by the custom dvm thing.

Sometimes xterm will start when others don't. Failing that, you can sometimes repair a template with "sudo xl console [name]", but glad you're back up and running.

The way to test things like this is to use “qvm-run -p program-name” and watch what errors bome back through that pipe. Usually you will see something like “program not found” or some error finding some basic resource that is required.
With dvm’s this is more of a problem, but doing that same command against its base templatevm might also give some insightful clues.
Thanks Steve,
I already tried qvm-run at the beginning of this thread, but it gives to reply, no error, nothing. it just froze trying to do that. Only CTRL c works to go on. Now tried to add -p as you suggested, but the result is the same.
Tried xterm, term, gnome-terminal, nothing works. Well the problem is solved because I prepared a new template, but it is good to remember to make a copy of the template before doing things that can break it.

I wonder: What happens if you run "journalctl -b -f" in multimedia while you try executing the commands?
