So, the resolutions Fedora reports as available appear to have no relation whatsoever to the ones in xorg.conf

<@ToxicFrog>
Hmm.
02:10
<@ToxicFrog>
Ok, apparently the guest additions are meant to install a "vboxvideo" driver
02:11
<@ToxicFrog>
However, either it didn't, or it did but the system didn't notice, because it's still using vesa

<@McMartin>
Hm. I haven't messed with the Linux additions yet.
02:40
<@McMartin>
The OSE additions on Windows, however, don't include shared folders.
02:41
<@McMartin>
If you run OSE with the closed guest tools, you get them, but the open guest tools don't.
02:41
<@McMartin>
The open guest tools for *Linux* seem to but I haven't tried it yet.
02:49
< Doctor_Nick>
LINUX
02:56
<@ToxicFrog>
I'm using the CSE
02:56
<@ToxicFrog>
Found the problem, anyways
02:57
<@ToxicFrog>
X.Org 1.5 isn't yet supported
02:57
<@ToxicFrog>
Since they heavily reworked the way mice are handled, and as is the vboxmouse driver (which vboxvideo requires) fails badly.
02:57
<@McMartin>
Aha.
02:58
<@McMartin>
Hardy Heron appears to be X Server 1.4.0.90
02:58
<@ToxicFrog>
This is Sulfur.
02:58
<@ToxicFrog>
Fedora 9.
02:58
<@McMartin>
Yeah. I'm saying to go with Fedora 8 or Ubuntu instead~
02:58
<@ToxicFrog>
So I can either wait, or fall back to- yes.
02:58
<@ToxicFrog>
I was planning to use this to test out FC9, actually
02:58
<@ToxicFrog>
Aah well
02:59
<@ToxicFrog>
let's see if I still have the FC8 install media
02:59
<@Vornicus>
"Does that mean I can pipe a magma tube through constructed ice walls?"
03:00
<@ToxicFrog>
Oh please let the answer be yes
03:00
<@Vornicus>
TO which?
03:00
<@ToxicFrog>
Magma tube.
03:00
<@Vornicus>
Yes.
03:00
<@ToxicFrog>
If I don't have the FC8 install media (I don't) I can easily re-download it
03:01
<@ToxicFrog>
Regrettably, I can't stay up for it
03:01
<@ToxicFrog>
So I'll have to try this tomorrow
03:03
<@ToxicFrog>
(my ultimate goal here: be able to boot windows, then boot linux on top of it fullscreen, using the /home from the native install)
03:03
<@ToxicFrog>
(thus having all the fun of linux, only with working wireless)
03:03
<@McMartin>
(Snerk)
03:03
<@McMartin>
(Sounds good though)
03:04
<@ToxicFrog>
Sadly, this may require uninstalling cygwin from windows in order to free up enough space for the linux guest /
03:05
<@McMartin>
Well, it's not like you'll be lacking for POSIX tools.
03:05
<@McMartin>
Especially once you get shared folders going.
03:05
<@ToxicFrog>
Yeah.
03:06
<@ToxicFrog>
Also, it's not like I actually use the windows install except as a wireless gateway and an X terminal.
03:06
<@ToxicFrog>
All the same, having Cygwin handy is comforting.
03:12
<@ToxicFrog>
I would much rather be running windows in the VM and abusing host interface networking to route through the VM, but for some reason guest windows installs can't use the wireless card.
03:12
<@ToxicFrog>
They can talk to the card, they can see wireless networks, but they can't associate with them.

03:51
<@McMartin>
Weird.
03:51
<@McMartin>
Can you tell the VM to tell the guest OS that it's totally a wired connection?
