Hi,
You can access/modify the framebuffer pointer without rebuilding
virtualbox. You can use the COM API to open a VM, bind it to a
session
and run it (inside your own application).
Not quite. You will be forced to build against that RTR3 security
thing, which pulls in a whole load of problems.
"Just using the xpcom api" isn't really working.
On Linux systems, you
can either run everything as root, or make a call to
RTR3InitAndSUPLib
(in VBoxXPCOMC.so) as root and then drop privileges and set up the
VM.
which has a hardcoded list of binaries that are allowed to run.
If you touch that, then you have to recompile SVC.
I've documented this (an alternative frontend in C#/.Net for Windows
and Linux) on my blog: http://wp.ufo-net.nl/tag/virtualbox/ - where
you can also find a link to my sourcecode.
that sounds promising, but how did you solve the security thingy
problems.
Do you just make every user recompile everything?
