Bros, can't I just fake I'm using it or something? My school is dumb as hell

Reskin Firefox to look like the browser they want you to use?

Full screen virtualbox?

Stop promoting abandonware, on linux you shouldn't be using anything but qemu/kvm/libvirt.
Asher Bennett
run it in wine
or this, qemu

The answer is breaking off a windows vm, see
The real answer is never attending an institution that forces its students to use such nonsense in the first place.

the "safe exam browser" is most likely a fork of chrome with gay botnet extensions.

Not OP but I have a similar problem. I didn't know about it before already spending thousands of dollars so I'm kinda fucked.

sourceforge.net
It checks for virtualization and refuses to run if it sees that it is in a virtual machine.
I guess it would be an arms race of you trying to hide it and then trying to detect it
Asher Turner
VMware is still faster with better graphics support
Dominic Murphy
tell your school you can't run it because it doesn't support linux so they'll need to supply you with a laptop

Inform them that their stupid software won't run on your computer.
If they're requiring you to use specific hardware and/or operating systems, they're also required to provide you with a machine with the requisite software for your coursework.

It's literal malware.
They check your running processes, what applications are running on your computer, what websites your browser is currently open to, your keystrokes, your webcam, your microphone.
If it detects the virtualization, it alerts the proctor.
Jonathan Torres
This.

Claim your laptop is broken and ask for a paper copy

Does it offer passthrough and near bare cpu speeds? I think not.
Christian Walker
what does this program do exactly?

mine just uses standard eduroam. and if you don't want to use the setup tool they have instructions for manual setup.

what the fuck

What planet are you on? That's like saying McDonalds has to give you a PC so you can use their WiFi.

sounds just like win10

Here's what they use to check for a VM, so use qemu and an extension which hides those strings from the VM, or just hook the C# JIT. Easy.

I doubt it wouldn't work under wine
