Fullscreen don't start

Post by Warpuser »

Hallo/2,

thanks for the the OS/2-build. In the new version 1.56 starts the guest not in fullscreenmode. When a vm closed in fullscreen, they changed by start in a window. In 1.54 works fullscreen fine.

Can somebody help? Thanks.

I never tested fullscreen mode.
Are you using Virtualbox.exe (QT) or VboxBFE (SDL) ?

thanks for your answer. I used virtualbox.exe (QT).

The new QT-vbox/2 (vbox-r7691-dbcsfix-20080422.zip) changes sessions by start from fullscreen to window too. Changing to fullscreen by host+f is possible. The next start begins in fullscreen, then change the programm to window and so on.

From the "machine".xml:
<ExtraData>
<ExtraDataItem name="GUI/SaveMountedAtRuntime" value="yes"/>
<ExtraDataItem name="GUI/LastWindowPostion" value="0,0,644,534"/>
<ExtraDataItem name="GUI/Fullscreen" value="on"/>
<ExtraDataItem name="GUI/Seamless" value="off"/>
<ExtraDataItem name="GUI/AutoresizeGuest" value="on"/>
<ExtraDataItem name="GUI/LastCloseAction" value="powerOff,discardCurState"/>
</ExtraData>

I think this is a bug in 1.6.0 and we will fix this for 1.6.2. The problem is that we leave fullscreen on every mode switch -- even when switching the mode during the BIOS logo.

Thanks,

... und da Du wohl besser deutsch sprichst wie ich Englisch: noch mal ganz vielen Dank an alle Beteiligten für das Umsetzen/2 des Programmes.

Do you know how long it will take before 1.6.2 is released?

Is there a chance that we become a release >= 1.6.2 vor OS/2 ? --thanks
