Re: Aero slow in beta2, good in beta1
Much as the same as other people's experience here... Aero is mostly working with the fix just posted, but occasional black screen when resizing or going to/from full screen. The Windows VM has booted into a black screen as well, a few times, requiring a forced reset as I couldn't see to shut the machine down.

Re: Aero slow in beta2, good in beta1
Host Ubuntu 10.10 x86_86 (with VT-x) guest Win 7 x86_64
Installed new GAs and actually it appears to not work as well as the original B2 GAs
The graphic tear and artifact are all over the place. Still aborts on a regular basis.
With the Beta1 or Beta2 GAs it rendered properly but aborted in Beta1 and produced guru mediations in beta2
32-bit guest is still rockin' along though on 64-bit (no VT-x) host.

Re: Aero slow in beta2, good in beta1
To all posting a feedback to the test build I posted: please EXPLICITLY specify whether each problem you describe here are regressions since beta 1/beta 2 or were with beta 1/beta 2 as well. E.g. given "performance is better" I can not guess whether it is back to the beta1 performance or not.
So far unless/until explicitly stated, I'm going to assume that issue reported here are NOT regressions and were with beta1 and beta2.

Am I correct that UAC problem ONLY appears when you run a VM in a full-screen mode, i.e. UAC prompt always drawn properly when your VM is running in a windowed mode?bedrock wrote:.. but for my other problem UAC prompt still not visible unless I press Host + F to switch out of full screen, or configure UAC to not display prompts on the secure desktop. I hope this can also be solved
Re: Aero slow in beta2, good in beta1
To all having a black screen issue: for isolating the problem could you try saving a VM state and then restoring it back to see if it solves the the black screen issue, like the Sasquatch mentioned in this post:
Also please specify the host & guest you're running and attach a VM session log.Sasquatch wrote:..I get a black window just before the desktop should show up. When I put the VM in saved state and resume it, all is fine again.

Could you attach a screenshot(s) of VM windows with the destortions you see?Perryg wrote:Host Ubuntu 10.10 x86_86 (with VT-x) guest Win 7 x86_64

Re: Aero slow in beta2, good in beta1
Sure thing. As you can see the screen shot windows remains in the shot. moving draws repeated images of the window. The others show the background, tears, Etc.. The screens jumps all over the place when clicking. Eventually the guest will abort. After playing the mine sweeper in the 32-bit version for say 3 or 4 time and then closing it down, the 32-bit guests starts behaving the same way. Starting anything without a complete reboot of the guest is impossible to use.

Re: Aero slow in beta2, good in beta1
Yes it does for me as well. Even resizing which can take 3 to 5 minutes to finally paint the window can be made to work by saving state and the starting again.misha wrote:To all having a black screen issue: for isolating the problem could you try saving a VM state and then restoring it back to see if it solves the the black screen issue, like the Sasquatch mentioned in this post:Also please specify the host & guest you're running and attach a VM session log.Sasquatch wrote:..I get a black window just before the desktop should show up.

Re: Aero slow in beta2, good in beta1
Performance is on BETA 1 Level again. But sometimes I'm getting guru meditations on startup or shutdown (BETA 1 and BETA 2). See vbox-logs attached...(occured while shutting down)
