Subject description: Problems running in virtualbox |
|
Am running in virtualbox version 4.1.4 and am having problems with mouse integration and resolution
When I move in certain parts of the screen the cursor changes to the host cursor unless I disable integration.
Secondly no matter what resolution I choose it still takes up to large an area and means I have to scroll.
Thanks

Make sure all apps etc. closed before testing, in case it hangs. I had to hold down the power-off button on my laptop for 4 seconds. |

NEXT : SAVE to CREATED CRYPT"A" file did not succeed at reboot .
--------- This time I did reboot from the prompt [wmexit] and the same :
--------- DID NOT SAVE new CREATED|CHANGED files into PUPSAVE !
--------- LIKE in slacko from X .
SAVEFILE gets created in ext2 at shutdown AND mounted successfully at boot :
# cat /etc/rc.d/BOOTCONFIG
LASTUNIONRECORD='racysave_crypta-2011_10_30_cryptA_ext2.2fs puppy_racy_5.1.110.sfs'

# lsmod

/etc/modules/DOTconfig-3.0.7:CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_586=m
/etc/modules/DOTconfig-3.0.7:# CONFIG_CRYPTO_AES_NI_INTEL is not set
The desktop was only black background and with jwm-taskbar .
After running " gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache " as suggested by 01micko
AND " rox -p /root/Choices/ROX-Filer/PuppyPin " the normal Puppy desktop environment showed up !
The new pupdialog to select extra sfs seems to be a little unrelyable ,
maybe because of some 2>/tmp/choice/txt.$$ like
"GDK-WARNING : SOME_LONG_TEXT_HERE
GDK-WARNING : SOME_LONG_TEXT_HERE
GDK-WARNING : SOME_LONG_TEXT_HERE
GDK-WARNING : SOME_LONG_TEXT_HERE
devx_racy_version.sfs
"
For security reasons i would advise a
| Code: | | choice=`cat /tmp/choice.txt.$$ | tail -n 1` |
in all these dialog|Xdialog scripts : TAIL to filter above Error messages out ( JUST IN CASE ) .
Iguleders inpu-001 had much of these i can remember .

NEXT : JWMCONFIG !!
Thie jwmconfig has got several bugs , which I was observing for one year now ,
[ perhaps will open a thread in the Cutting Edge section , but my fixes may still contain bugs also ]
Shinobar attempted to fix the line numbering , but moving the panel buttons around , deleted two lines in .jwmrc-tray :
| Code: | <Pager/>
<!-- Additional TaskList attribute: maxwidth --> |
I have made some attempts to fix jwmconfig and one solution for the line numbering using wc -l could be :
ENSURE TRAILING NEWLINE IN .JWMRC-TRAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this could be achieved by adding this code into /usr/local/jwmconfig2/panel-buttons :
| Code: |
--- /initrd/pup_ro2/usr/local/jwmconfig2/panel-buttons 2010-08-23 04:04:43.000000000 +0100

did it work? I'm stuck with vesa, 1600x900 and xorgwizard from the firstrun-gui only cycles me back to same display without giving any choices.

Jim,
Would you mind looking in file /var/log/xorg.0.log, and do a search for "i9" and "i8". That will determine which of the i810, i915 or i965 DRI drivers are loading.
On my laptop, it is the i965 DRI driver that is the culprit.

Yes , it apparently [seems to have] worked :
There are three buttons to select @xorgwizard :
dialog --colors --extra-button --title "Puppy Video Wizard"
--ok-label "Probe" --cancel-label "vesa" --extra-label "Choose"
the Choose option presented the whole drivers list , that the script found in its search
and there i had chosen "nouveau" and then it tested ok .
BUT i did not check the content of xorg.conf .....
after mounting the save-file
xorg.conf is /mnt/loop5/etc/X11/xorg.conf.NVIDIAAOCA790
BUT the card driver section looks like
#110627 remove...
##server can find BusID automatically, comment out...
#Section "Device"
# Identifier "Card0"
# Driver "vesa" #card0driver
# VendorName "Unknown Vendor"
# BoardName "Unknown Board"
## BusID "PCI:0:2:0" #card0busid
#EndSection
?????
[ guessing for now a simple grep 'vesa' syntax in the firstrun-gui caused this ]
So i have to reboot into it again to check for the card driver :S
