Folks,

just upgraded my VBox to 3.0.0. On my Tecra M9 running Nevada 102.

Then, from my Sun Ray in the office, I did do a :

        xhost + laptop
        ssh laptop
        exec bash
        export DISPLAY=sunray-name:display-number
        VirtualBox

Guess, what happens?

That starting of VirtualBox DOES KILL MY XSESSION on the Sun Ray, and funny
enough, I did get a NEW session on the same Sun Ray Server, with the same
Display ID, and NO LOGIN/PW question!

I tried it again, this time I was asked to login...

But: Main problem: WHY DOES starting a VirtualBox with a different Xserver
(not the one on :0.0) KILL THAT Xserver? That should not happen, and did not
happen before!

Is it trying to use some properties, that might not be available in my fvwm95
window manager? Do I need to run GNOME or KDE or CDE or whatever?

Very confused (and a bit upset, as I had to reshuffle my settings...)
        Matthias
