#9050 worksforme Crash After Upgrade Jonathon
Description

I upgraded to the latest version a few weeks ago and since then my Windows installation will not start. I get the following error: Failed to open virtual machine located in /Users/winlynx/VirtualBox VMs/Windows/mswindows.vbox. Medium '/Users/winlynx/VirtualBox VMs/Windows/Windows.vdi' cannot be closed because it is still attached to 1 virtual machines. Failed to open virtual machine located in /Users/winlynx/VirtualBox VMs/Windows/mswindows.vbox. Medium '/Users/winlynx/VirtualBox VMs/Windows/Windows.vdi' cannot be closed because it is still attached to 1 virtual machines.

It worked great until the upgrade any advise would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance for looking at this problem.

#10850 obsolete linux host multiple screens windows guest spanning screens fails when restarted Mark Smith
Description

i have a linux host running a w7 guest. i normally run this guest at full size spanning both monitors on my two monitor setup. when i restart the guest it only expands to one of the two monitors. i need to manually resize to fit across both monitors again. this has happened for many releases.

virtualbox details:

version 4.1.20 r80170 with matching extensions and guest extensions. runtime attributes are:

Screen Resolution 2392x1822x32 VT-x/AMD-V Enabled Nested Paging Enabled Guest Additions 4.1.16r78094 Guest OS Type Windows 7 Remote Desktop Server Port Not Available

guest details

w7 with three virtual screens.

host details:

the linux host (ubuntu 11.04 up to date) consists of two monitors joined w/o xinerama (e.g. when i hit expand to full screen, windows expand only to the size of a single screen, not both of them). if it matters, i'm rotating both monitors 90 to vertical position. i'll attach my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file if given the chance later.

i have six virtual screens using gnome arranged in a 3x2 grid. the top three virtual screens are assigned to one each of the three virtual guest screens.

when i boot my guest it always starts with the three virtual guest monitors on the same host monitor. each virtual guest monitor is tiny. i have to stretch it across the entire display spanning both guest monitors and then move it to the correct gnome virtual monitor.

if i do nothing, all three guest monitors will be started on whatever gnome host monitor i started the guest on. each guest monitor will expand to it's remembered size, but only one one of the two screens. i must then grab an edge of the virtual guest monitor and drag it across to the other screen.

i realize there are a lot of moving pieces here and i am happy to add some additional pictures if someone is interested in it.

i have a work around which is to move the screen around where i want them. it's just getting to be a royal pita and i thought you might not know about this issue since it's been around for so long already so i decided to forward it.

also... i stupidly created 'winksmit' as my nick, but i typed it too fast and it should be 'winksmith' (missing the 'h'). if someone could fix that, it'd be super. thanks.

#11972 obsolete multi-screen handling on multi-screen workstations not remembered after guest restarts Mark Smith
Description

I have a guest instance of W7 configured to have 3 screens. Each of them is running on each of the 3 gnome workspaces (of a total of 6). Each of the 3 gnome workspaces is made up of two physical monitors. The host is Ubuntu 11.04 (now unsupported) running Gnome 2.32.1.

When I start up this guest, all the guest screens appears on gnome workspace that is currently in focus. Each VM window is fully expanded to the size of only one of the physical monitors, instead of both of them. I manually enlarge it so it expands across both monitors. I then move each of the guest screens to reside on one gnome workspace.

the next time i boot this guest, each of the guest screens appear on the currently focused gnome screen, but only in one of the physical monitors of the two that make up the gnome workspace.

  1. i want each guest screen to go to the size i had it originally which spans both of my physical monitors.
  2. i want each guest screen to go to the gnome screen that i moved it to.

basically, i want it to remember my settings. each time i boot the guest i have to do all of this manually. it's certainly not impossible, but it's annoying to have to do it again and again. it's clearly remembering some of it.
