DRC,
Thanks!
Yes, this build seems to fix all of those issues.
Specifically, I tested opening the options dialog and pressing OK, and there
was no NullPointerException.
Then I tested turning the fullscreen command-line argument on (and off) on my
OS X 10.6 and OS X 10.7 physical machines, and on my OS X 10.8 virtual machine
(i.e. 6 cases altogether), and they all worked as expected. On the OS X 10.6
machine, I saw the old-style fullscreen mode, as seen in previous TurboVNC
versions, and on OS X 10.7 and OS X 10.8, I saw the new fullscreen mode
(without the menu and dock).

I have experienced similar disk grinding issues whilst running multiple virtual
machines within VMWare Fusion on OS X 10.7. One tip I found which seemed to
help was to use the "Split into 2 GB files" setting for my OS X 10.8 virtual
machine's virtual disk. I don't know whether VirtualBox has a similar setting.
Cheers,
James
