Problems with F11 and VirtualBox

[Karmaflute]

Fedora 11 preview worked fine but the final Fedora 11 does not work with VirtualBox in seamless mode. The crop area of windows are not updated when resizing.

For example, when you enter seamless mode windows are properly cropped but if you resize them the crop area doesn't change so you will either see the background by making the window smaller or crop more of the window by trying to make it larger.

Does anyone know what might cause this? A new version of Xorg?

Seamless currently doesn't work well if the host has compiz enabled.

Sorry I wasn't more specific. The host is Windows 7 and the guest is Fedora 11. I'm not using compiz on the guest.

Everything works out of the box with Fedora 9/10/11-preview but not with 11 final.

Ok, we will check that. Thanks for the clarification.

You might want to give the 3.0 beta version a try.

I've uninstalled the old VB and installed the new beta as well as the new VirtualBox additions. The problem still persists.

Oops, I can reproduce this after all. I will take a look.

I think that this is the same issue as http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/3727 . Can you take a look at that ticket and post a comment there if you agree? Then we can continue the discussion there.

Yes, I believe this is the same issue. I've posted a comment there. Is there a way to subscribe to these bugs to get e-mail notifications?
