    virtualbox desktop integration bug?

    Hi All,

    Anyone using virtual box with XP? I am having a bug where if I do the desktop integration with cntrl + l it works if a XP window is open (any window or even the start menu), but if nothing is open the screen acts funny, lots of flashing between Ubuntu and XP Desktop, sometimes just shows my wallpaper with nothing else but if I can "by chance" find a window that is open it'll show the window....

    anyone else having similar symptoms?

    Witch virtualbox version do you have and i think you mean you want to go full screen i hit ctrl +F if you don't have the 2.1.4 version go get it first uninstall the version you have and than download the new version from the virtualbox site.
    have funn

    I am using 2.1.4 and I mean desktop integration, not full screen (cntrl + l not cntrl + f).
