| #1890 | obsolete | VBoxHeadless does not set the user correctly when run from SysV init script | ||
| Description |
I'm starting a VM from a Ubuntu init script which uses the helper program start-stop-daemon. Although I used the --chuid user option, the resulting instance of VBoxHeadless does not appear to know the username. In particular this affects the VBoxXPCOMIPCD service which created a directory called /tmp/.vbox--ipc (notice the empty string between the hyphens, normally when VBoxHeadless is started from a terminal, the directory is /tmp/.vbox-user-ipc). This means that VBoxManage cannot find the instance of the VM to send IPC to, for example, to send Ctrl-Alt-Del scancodes. Setting LOGNAME to the intended username seems to fix this, as in: LOGNAME=user start-stop-daemon ... The correct fix would be for the service to check its uid and map it back to the username. |

| #1891 | duplicate | VB doesn't handle custom keyboard layouts (xmodmap) -> duplicate of #2595 | ||
| Description |
VirtualBox cannot handle a custom keyboard layout by xmodmap. When entering characters, "abcde..." becomes "anihd...". Attached is the VBox log and the xmodmaprc I'm using. If xmodmap is not invoked, everything is peachy. |

| #1892 | fixed | vbox0 interface doesn't start when Virtual Box loads => documented in 1.6.6 | ||
| Description |
Well, were to start. I'm running Opensuse 11.0. I'm having to constantly (after every startup of the host system) put the "sudo VBoxAddIf vbox0 user br0" command in to fire up the vbox0 interface. After doing so, the Virtual Box system will network and have internet connection. If someone can tell me how to get the vbox0 interface to load on startup of host I would not have any problems with Virtual Box. I have spent many hours trying to resolve this and again, if the vbox0 interface would just load at either the host boot or Virtual box Boot I would be set. Any suggestions would be helpful. Oh ya, take it easy on me, I'm a Linux noobe. Yes, I have followed the instructions several times and have come to the conclusion that all I need is the vbox0 interface to load at startup of Host or Virtual Box. |
