From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

GUI:
kvm/qemu hypervisor (Debian Bookworm with GNOME in my case) with a real GPU - Sunshine server (https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine ) and Moonlight client (https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-qt ), requires a powered on monitor or a hdmi dummy plug though.
VM Server - Libvirt virt-manager from the kvm/qemu hypervisor.

Terminal:
I know I can just SSH but I usually use Cockpit (cockpit-project.org) for all my administrative/maintenance.

I will give moonlight/sunshine another go I tried to get it working for another Linux laptop just to try but couldn't get drivers or something to work.

The logs from Sunshine (found here https://localhost:47990/troubleshooting) and Cockpit (found here: http://localhost:9090/system/logs) are a godsend for troubleshooting. Cockpit for more than just Sunshine, having all logs collected and filterable in a webui is splendid.
