display error in virtual machine

Hi all,
I ran into some weird problem as of late. 🙁
I set up a new production system (Linux Lite 6.2.) as I converted from
Lubuntu to LL. I´ve always been running /Bodhi Linux/ as a virtual
machine (qemu/kvm/virt-manager) and intend to keep it that way.
However I needed to change permissions for the Bodhi img-file in order
to import it in *virt-manager.*
I did it thus:
|sudo chown libvirt-qemu:libvirt-qemu <image-file>|
Now I could easily import the existing img-file for Bodhi. The vm starts
alright but when logging in I´m presented with
an error message. It said:
Error found when loading /home/rosika2/.xprofile:
xrandr: cannot find output "Virtual-0"
Hmm... I then started Bodhi using the *i3 tiling window manager* and
thus at least could get a smaller window in which I could
make use of the terminal.
"xrandr -q" informed me about Virtual-0 being used. So I changed into
/home/rosika2/ and looked at *.xprofile*:
|cat .xprofile
#!/bin/sh
xrandr --newmode "1696x953_60.00" 133.75 1696 1800 1976 2256 953 956
966 989 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode Virtual-0 1696x953_60.00|
Hmm... *xrandr -q* said "Virtual-0 connected primary [...]".
So I changed the config file to use "Virtual-1".
I rebooted and indeed everything´s o.k. now ... as long as I make use of
the i3 tiling window manager.
However the problem remains when trying to use the *Moksha DE*. Still
I´m presented with a popup. It says:
_*/Display output is not active/*_
I *guess* there´s a dedicated config file for Moksha which needs
changing but I don´t know where to start here.
Does anybody have a clue and can help me?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Many greetings from Rosika :)
