Could be related to the particular video driver or hardware but it only shows up as a result of vbox. If vbox is actually going to start the VM and data is transferred, then the non-client area of the VM window turn pink and if and when this window has focus, the screen blanks. If I take the focus away, i.e. by hitting F12 which would drop yakuake and give that the focus, the screen comes back with the booting VM in a pink window. Since the only way to stop vbox now is to killl it from outside, whatever it has done to the video settings remains and affects new windows. X must be restarted to reset. So ... what is vbox doing the the video settings? How can I prevent this? Bug? BTW. happens with and without HW acceleration checked. BTW, still happens with the beta. _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list [email protected] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
