Ticket Resolution Summary Owner Reporter
#20235 fixed Remove - Delete all files does not delete Logs/VBoxUI.log => Fixed in SVN a587730
Description

It is simple yet annoying problem. 'Delete all files' is expected to delete all files created by virtualbox including configurations, linked virtual hdds, and logs. But since 6.1, It does not delete Logs/VBoxUI.log in VM directory and prevents me to re-create a new VM with the same name unless I delete it manually.

#20222 fixed GUI BUG: file picker on Linux KDE Plasma does not handle mouse, unusable gombara ValdikSS
Description

VirtualBox file picker dialog (ISO or HDD selection, etc) does not handle mouse events when running on KDE Plasma 5. All dialog elements are not clickable. You can still use it with keyboard.

When opening the dialog, Qt outputs the following warning into console:

Qt WARNING: QWidgetWindow(0x681e4a0, name="UIMachineSettingsStorageWindow") must be a top level window.

I'm not sure whether is this a Qt, VirtualBox, KDE Plasma or packaging issue, but Mageia bug reporter https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27433 says that rebuilding the same package under older version of distro fixes the issue.

This is happening in Virtualbox 6.1.18 too, but only in Plasma5. Doesn't happen under GNOME. Curiously the same .src.rpm rebuilt under Mageia7 doesn't show up the problem under Plasma.

Also reproducible on Fedora 33 with RPMFusion repository. Bug: https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5929#c1

### HOW TO REPRODUCE

  1. Open VirtualBox
  2. Create new VM or use existing
  3. Open VM settings
  4. Go to "storage" tab
  5. Click on any drive → cilck on HDD or optical icon → Choose a disk file… dropdown element

### EXPECTED RESULT File picker dialog works as usual, you can select ISO or disk drive file with a mouse.

### ACTUAL RESULT You can't click on any dialog element.

### WORKAROUND Quick and dirty patch is in the attachment.

KDE Plasma: 5.20.5 KDE Frameworks: 5.78.0 Qt version: 5.15.2

#20216 invalid Meta key in X.org guest not repeating on Windows 10 host anrxc
Description

In terminal emulators, in Emacs, and in GTK applications when gtk-key-theme-name=Emacs is used the meta key (Escape and/or left Alt) can be used to quickly navigate the command line or text and source code. Meta+f will go one word forward, Meta+b one word backwards etc.

In a Linux console and in a native Linux desktop environment if you wanted to move 3 words forward you could press: Meta+f ... f ... f. But in a VirtualBox guest on my Windows 10 host you must press: Meta+f Meta+f Meta+f.

The meta key does not repeat. Instead it inserts an "f" into the text for each subsequent press.

Another example, if you wanted to cycle through irssi chat windows you cannot press Meta+2 then 3, then 4... you have to press Meta+2 Meta+3 Meta+4 to cycle to each window.

This destroys productivity completely and is incredibly frustrating! Last two decades I developed muscle memory and various techniques to manipulate systems and code quickly, and now it's all useless.

Before X.org is started the meta key shortcuts behave as they should on the console/terminal, for example Meta+f ... f ... f just works, but when X.org is started they do not.

If you are an experienced Linux user and know exactly what I'm talking about, the type of shortcuts I'm talking about, and if you wanted to reproduce this issue then first remember that Alt is seemingly some kind of a reserved key on a Windows host. You need an Xmodmap such as this to assign it like it behaves typically on native Linux desktops:

$ cat ~/.Xmodmap

! Swap Esc and Alt under VirtualBox guest
! - Todo: unreliable in VirtualBox guest, sometimes must be 
!         ran 2-3 times, open a separate report about this
!
remove mod1 = Alt_L
keysym Escape = Alt_L
keysym Alt_L = Escape
add mod1 = Alt_L

$ xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap
