#4083 obsolete vesa driver crashes X when an application tries to use Composite with XRender Heinz Wiesinger
Description

I use Slackware64-current in a VM. When I try to start up KDE-4.2.3 inside the VM, with the default configuration files, the xserver crashes. By default the vesa-driver is being used. KDE4 tries to enable Desktop Effects based on XRender if it finds the vesa-driver. This does work fine on a real machine, but crashes the xserver inside virtualbox.

Tested version was VirtualBox 2.2.2, Xorg-server 1.4.2, xf86-video-vesa-1.3.0

#4094 obsolete VirtualBox and Desktops.exe (from sysinternals) oxoocoffee
Description

I am running Virtual Box on Windows 7 RC with Desktop. On first screen I have Windows stuff. On second I have started VirtualBox running XP and on the third screen I am trying to start another VirtualBox running Ubuntu. When I am trying to start virtual box (the main UI to fire ubuntu not actual VM) I get this error message. "Failed to create the VirtualBox COM Object" "The application will terminate now" Could not lock the setting file "C:\Users\robert\.virtualbox\VirtualBox.xml" (VERR_SHARING_VIOLATION)

Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005) Component: VirtualBox Interface: IVirtualBox {779264f4-65ed-48ed-be39-518ca549e296}

I just shutdown my Virtual Box and than exited (End Tree in task manager) Desktops.exe and I can start multiple VirtualBox just fine now.

#4095 obsolete Debian package: please add "Provides: virtualbox-source" to debian/control blueyed
Description

There's a problem if you do the following:

  1. Install virtualbox-2.2, this will install a symlink: /usr/src/vboxdrv-2.2.2 -> ../share/virtualbox/src/vboxdrv
  2. Install virtualbox-ose-source
  3. Remove virtualbox-2.2, e.g. by installing virtualbox-ose

This leads to the following: In 2. virtualbox-ose-source appears to install its files into the symlink's target. In 3. /usr/src/share/virtualbox/src/vboxdrv gets removed and a dangling symlink is left behind

I've tried to workaround this using "Conflicts", but (for some reason to clarify) we provide those names (virtualbox, virtualbox-2.0, virtualbox-2.1, virtualbox-2.2) ourselves.

The solution to this problems appears to be if you would add "Provides: virtualbox-source" to your packages (after all, they provide/ship it), since the packages in Debian/Ubuntu already conflict/replace/provide "virtualbox-source".

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox-ose/+bug/379878 for the bug in Launchpad.

Keep in mind that this might be wrong of course, so maybe wait if there's any negative feedback from the Debian maintainers.
