#2598 fixed correction for user manual Stéphane Charette
Description

VB 2.0.4 user manual, section 6.4.1, "Configuring port forwarding with NAT", page 74, first paragraph contains the following:

"...on the host and resends all packages which..."

I think that should be:

"...on the host and resends all packets which..."

#2783 fixed window is not resized when the X is restarted -> fixed in SVN Stéphane Charette
Description

When a Debian Etch 4 64-bit guest is taken from text-mode into X, the VirtualBox window is not resized correctly. It stays the same size as the 80x25 text-mode console. The X desktop is then incorrectly drawn within this too-small window. (See attached.)

Repro steps:

  1. start Debian Etch 4 64-bit guest
  2. start a terminal window
  3. at the prompt, type "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
  4. the VB window will be resized, and you should now be in a text-mode console window
  5. login
  6. type "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start"
  7. X will now start, but the VB window will remain the same size as it was for the text-mode console; the desktop will look "scrambled" as shown in the attached image

Note how the VB window wont correctly resize any bigger. It seems fixed at this size. (See attached image #2.)

To fix this problem:

  1. press: <HOST>+CTRL+F1
  2. one you are at the guest's text console, press ALT+F7 to return to X

The VB window will resize itself to accommodate the full desktop, and no redraw problem remains.

#3096 fixed linux vboxvideo no longer works with non-standard resolutions -> fixed in SVN Stéphane Charette
Description

This used to work in previous 1.x, 2.0, and 2.1 releases of VB. I have a screen resolution in my Debian Etch 4 guest that ensures the guest takes just a little bit less than one of my physical screen. This way I can see just enough of the host to interact when I need it.

The relevant lines in my guest xorg.conf file are:

DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display"

Depth 24 Modes "1648x936" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"

EndSubSection

Now that I've upgraded to VB 2.1.2, I re-installed the guest additions and rebooted the guest. But the guest desktop now doesn't show up correctly. The screen is only randomly updated, the menubar does not show, and when I type into a bash command-prompt window I only see maybe 1 out of 20 or 30 characters show up on the screen. (The other characters are there, since when I press ENTER the commands execute correctly. Only screen updates are not working.)

If I remove the "1648x936" resolution, then everything works fine at 1280x1024. (But this resolution is not wide enough and too high to fit on my screen!)

If I comment out the vboxvideo driver and use the vesa driver instead, then it comes up in 1280x1024, and again screen redraws are working fine.
