| #304 | duplicate | Settings path under Mac OS X could be adjusted | ||
| Description |
First of all, thank you very much for porting VirtualBox to Mac OS X. Great! :-) I've noticed that VirtualBox stores its settings directly into the user's library, i.e. ~/Library/VirtualBox. Please note that this is not the appropriate place for application settings. Instead your users would look for the settings in ~/Library/Application Support/VirtualBox. :-) PS: If you already received my ticket yesterday, sorry for posting twice. I simply couldn't find my ticket, neither here: http://www.virtualbox.org/report/1 nor here: http://vbox.innotek.de/pipermail/vbox-trac/2007-April/date.html |

| #305 | duplicate | addendum to bug #302 | ||
| Description |
Hello achimha, thank you for your reply. I wanted to mail you back, but your mail server said "Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently: trac@…: SMTP Error (state 9): 550 Unrouteable address" There is a official statement from Apple under http://developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPFileSystem/Articles/LibraryDirectory.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20002282-BAJHCHJI It states that the directory "Application Support" withing the user's library is the appropriate place for "third party" data and support files. The statement seems to be a little confusing. "Application Support contains application-specific data and support files such as third-party plug-ins, helper applications, templates, and extra resources that are used by the application but not required for it to operate. This directory should never contain any kind of user data." That means the data should not go into this directory *directly*. "By convention, all of these items should be put in a subdirectory named after the application. For example, third-party resources for the application MyApp would go in Application Support/MyApp/." That is what they all do (except Parallels), have a look at the appended files for that. "Note that required resources should go inside the application bundle itself." That means put data in here, but no program files. Program files go to /Applications/My.app/Contents/..... Please don't look at the parallels guys! They messed it up. |

| #306 | fixed | Win XP VM on Ubuntu 7.04 host: Intermittent freezing of VM | ||
| Description |
I am running Ubuntu 7.04 on my laptop, and have installed Windows XP in a VM. The virtual machine suffers from intermittent freezing. For example, approximately every 2 minutes the VM freezes for 15 seconds, before resuming normal behaviour. This intermittent freezing of the VM has occurred ever since setting up the VM - even during Windows XP installation. The intermittent freezing still occurs when the VM is idle. The problem does not seem to be caused by CPU hog, as "top" showed the highest process was Xorg using 5% of the CPU during one of the freezes. |
