[D-Bus](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus/) is a desktop-oriented middleware that can be used to create a display for a virtual machine.

When the virtual machine is launched, a specific D-Bus address will be choosen, as well as a rendering device:

#### Connect to the D-Bus display
|
||||
|
||||
A third-party tool is required to interact to the D-Bus display.
|
||||
|
||||
[Libmks](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libmks), which is under development, is such a tool.
|
||||
|
||||
> Due to [a bug](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libmks/-/issues/16), it is currenlty only possible to connect a D-Bus display with plain QEMU
|
||||
{.is-warning}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Libmks has to be built from source.
|
||||
|
||||
- Clone the repository
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libmks
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Change directory
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd libmks
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Build it
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
meson setup build
|
||||
cd build
|
||||
ninja
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Launch a diskless virtual machine
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
qemu-system-x86_64 \
|
||||
-enable-kvm \
|
||||
-machine q35 \
|
||||
-drive if=pflash,format=raw,readonly=on,file=/usr/share/edk2-ovmf/x64/OVMF_CODE.fd \
|
||||
-cpu host \
|
||||
-device virtio-vga-gl \
|
||||
-m 4G \
|
||||
-smp 2,sockets=1,dies=1,cores=2,threads=1 \
|
||||
-display dbus,gl=on \
|
||||
-device virtio-tablet-pci \
|
||||
-device virtio-keyboard-pci \
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- From another terminal tab or window, launch the previously built MKS using the following command
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
./build/tools/mks
|
||||
```
