Known issues and notes

Keyboard language in American

Cloud images typically have the American keyboard preconfigured. To temporarily set the Spanish keyboard, run the following command:

sudo loadkeys es

To make this change persistent instead of executing this command each time, launch the keyboard configuration assistant.

sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration

View available disk space

To view the used and available disk space, it is necessary to install the qemu-guest-agent package. For example, on Ubuntu:

sudo apt install qemu-guest-agent

After doing this, if the machine was created before 12/12/2025, you need to turn it off and back on, and wait a few minutes for the available space to appear for the first time. It will not work if you only restart.
