Run Ubuntu Touch as a virtual machine? [Solved]

[Opolork]

Hi.

Is it possible to run Ubuntu Touch as a virtual machine (QEMU/VirtualBox) to test out apps?

Thanks.

I've managed to boot the ubuntu-touch-mainline-generic-amd64.img image on Parallels Desktop. Looks good so far.

But some apps don't start wit the massage that gtk can't find any display or monitor. Which is weird because I am seeing clearly the desktop.

Any ideas / suggestions on what I need to install? like xsession, that apps like gparted, geany and xrandr etc. recognises the display I am looking at?

Thanks

@opolork dont just use clickable desktop same thing for app dev but not so much for UT core development
