Public bug reported: I think the bug is in Nautilus, but the search field says there are too many matches. I'm making a naïve guess, anyway. Maybe it's in VirtualBox, which would be nice to get narrowed down.
Enclosed is the text at http://askubuntu.com/questions/136397/seamless- mode-not-working-correctly-in-virtual-box – three of us are seeing this issue, so I decided it's time to file a bug. Plus, as a fan of Ubuntu, I'm concerned that Giovanni said, "This problem, together with the bad feeling I have with Unity, will probably force me to try other distributions, like Mint." -- tbc0 I run Ubuntu Desktop in a VirtualBox seamless mode, hosted on Windows 7. I recently upgraded from 11.10 to 12.04 and seamless mode no longer works correctly. I have re-installed guest extensions. The problem is that the Ubuntu desktop wallpaper is shown, effectively blocking the Windows desktop. I can bring Windows apps to the foreground, but as soon as I bring any Ubuntu window to the foreground, all the windows apps will disappear, hidden by the ubuntu desktop even if I activated an Ubuntu window in a different monitor. So, it is not very much different from full-screen mode at this time. I suspect if I could turn off the Ubuntu desktop or wallpaper this would be a sufficient workaround (this is basically what Seamless mode is) but that does not seem to be possible within Ubuntu itself. [Jeremy doesn't specify system config, but I can confirm I'm seeing this behavior in Win 7 64-bit with a 64-bit guest. Giovanni sees the same thing on his laptop running Vista Ultimate 64 bit after upgrading his 32-bit guest to 12.04 (forums.virtualbox.org p225407, requires logging in with your free Oracle account). – tbc0] ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: virtualbox -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/999929 Title: Seamless Mode Not Working Correctly in Virtual Box To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/999929/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
