Bug: Changing to 800x600 results in a freeze | |

Junior Mitglied Posts: 11 Registered: 2008-08-03 | I had a fresh installation of Paldo 1.14 (x86) in VirtualBox, and the default resolution was 1024x768. But my host screen is 1280x800, so the VirtualBox window partially went below the screen. I decided to change to 800x600 but it keeps resulting in system freezing at 100% CPU usage.
This is not a problem to me (personally), but I still wanted to report the bug.
VirtualBox version is 1.5.6_OSE.
P.S.: Sending CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE and CTRL+ALT+DEL signals doesn't work. I couldn't try CTRL+ALT+F%n and CTRL+ALT+SysRq+%whatever because it causes my host system to react instead of the guest one. .............................. sudo make breakfast |

Junior Mitglied Posts: 11 Registered: 2008-08-03 | I just tried it and the results are:
Before (installed 1.14?) it just froze (nothing was responding and anothing was changing).
Now (live_CD && installed 1.15?) it changes the resolution but the whole interface still remains frozen. I've tried the Live CD first with the Other/Unknows OS setting, than with Linux 2.6 OS Setting both from Live CD and installed one.
Personally I don't find it being a big problem as I have other OSes availible on my computers so there's no need to adapt Paldo just for me, although I will be happy to test again should need arise.
At very least I must comliment on very easy installation. It's even easier than Ubuntu (which aims for simplicity).
*** The ?s next to the versions are because I'm not 101% sure. Anyway, "now" is the latest stable version that was avalible today (21th August 2008). Before is the version before that one. .............................. sudo make breakfast |
