Hello, This list has always been very helpful.
I am not migrating VirtualBox sessions from my desktop to headless sessions in zones on Solaris 11, with the intent to use uttsc to connect to the headless sessions and gain all of the SRWC goodness: USB redirection, enhanced multimedia support, persistent execution, sound from multiple VirtualBox sessions. That last one is interesting. When VirtualBox starts up it takes the audio device and gives that to a back end process, which in turn shares it with all VirtualBox session using X. Since Sun Ray cannot handle multiple audio streams, you have to choose which VB instance gets sound and carefully start them in a well-defined order. Using a triple-head workstation with 12 virtual desktops (workspaces?), I can have many things going on: * the personal workspace has a personal firefox window and possibly a PDF viewer and some terminals * the finance workspace has a single-head full-screen Windows 7 instance running Quicken and one or more firefox windows for logging into banks * the MBA workspace has a browser, a PDF viewer and one or more OpenOffice apps running and a two-head Windows 7 instance so that I can do schoolwork * the media workspace has several terminals and a single-head Windows 7 instance * the job workspace has a full-screen triple-head XP instance for attaching to corporate VPN and getting to a Citrix session All of this works well, when VB sessions are run full screen. Now that I am starting to play with uttsc to remote OS instances, I have noticed a few problems. It is entirely possible I simply misunderstand. Any insight is appreciated. Solaris 11, SRS 5.2, VirtualBox 4.1.8. I cannot get fullscreen to work well with uttsc. The flag "-x xinerama" and the -x flag unset produce the fullscreen on the left head (covering my gnome toolbar) while complete garbage covers the middle and right head. The flag "-x randr" and "-x off" stretch the session across all three screens. As far as I can tell, there is no graceful way to contain a session to one or two heads of my choice. Also, short of minimizing a fullscreen session, there appears to be no way to regain the focus so that I may switch workspaces. The right ctrl key does this in VirtualBox. Is there a way to get uttsc to behave well in a multihead fullscreen mode? I would love to move to this model of processing.
