I am running a Windows Vista Home Premium guest on an openSUSE 11.1 linux host. I have shared a folder on the host containing my photograph collection. In the Win Vista guest I am trying out Adobe Photoshop Elements. The Win Vista guest can see the shared folder as a mapped drive (readable and writeable), and it is also readable in Adobe Photoshop to the extent of reading the directory structure and filenames. However, it is unable to create thumbnails of the files, which is a required step before editing them. I can copy everything into the VM and edit it there, then copy the changes back, but that defeats the object of the exercise.
The reason I an asking in this list is because Adobe Photoshop running in Windows Vista on my laptop can see the same shared folder over the wireless LAN, and is able to read and write directly to the shared folder without difficulty. In other words, the difference between the two setups is Virtual Box. -- Registered Linux User #463880 FSFE Member #1300 GPG-FP: A6C1 457C 6DBA B13E 5524 F703 D12A FB79 926B 994E openSUSE 11.1, Kernel 2.6.27.37-0.1-default, KDE 4.3 Intel Core2 Quad Q9400 2.66GHz, 4GB DDR RAM, nVidia GeForce 9200GS _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list vbox-users@virtualbox.org http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
