General :: Key Is Not Detected In Xev Neither Showkey -k In Ubuntu 10.04 In A Virtualbox VM?

Jun 15, 2010

My question mark key in my keyboard isn't working. ("?"). I've tried to use xev and showkey -k to try to identify at least a keycode and manually use xmodmap to map it. Unfortunately, the keys aren't being detected in neither utilities. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 in a Virtual Machine (VirtualBox 3.2.4 r62467), and my Kernel is 2.6.32-22-generic. My Host is an Ubuntu 8.04.

When I run xev in my host, I get:

KeyRelease event, serial 30, synthetic
NO, window 0x3600001,
root 0x5d, subw 0x0, time 19346721, (726,722), root:(730,746),
state 0x2010, keycode 211 (keysym 0x2f, slash), same_screen YES,
XKeysymToKeycode returns keycode: 61
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (2f) "/"
XFilterEvent returns: False

[Code]...

What can this be? It's not a special multimedia key, it's a simple one. I would like to understand what exactly is happening so at least I can try to better debug this issue. If it's detected in my host, why it isn't in my guest?

Ubuntu :: 11.04 - VirtualBox 4.1.0 (Invalid Settings Detected)

Jul 30, 2011

I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 on a Compaq Presario CQ62, with factory specs. I have downloaded and installed VirtualBox 4.1.0 r73009, and successfully installed Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7. However, I have now hit a problem. When I go to Settings for either virtual machine, I get an error that says "Invalid settings detected". It doesn't matter what I try to change or adjust, this message will not disappear. I do not currently have USB support for the Virtual machines, but it's not a big concern to me at this time. I don't know what commands I need to issue or what information I can offer to get the readout of what's not working right. I am very comfortable using Terminal, but have no idea what to look for or where to go.

OpenSUSE :: Data Corruption In VirtualBox 4.0.4 From Virtualbox.org?

Mar 7, 2011

Observed on two host systems both with openSUSE 11.3 32 bit using ext4: When a big files, in this case a 1.2 GB and a 1.7 GB is copied from DVD, usb harddrive or shared folder into a Windows 7 32 bit guest system, the copied file is corrupted. The md5sum has changed and until the guest system has been rebooted successive md5sum tests on the same file comes up with various results... After a reboot md5sum tests show consistent results, but a sum different from the original file.

General :: Ubuntu Froze In VirtualBox?

Aug 12, 2011

I am working on the newest version of Ubuntu Linux on VirtualBox under a 64-bit Windows 7 host. When I was working, VirtualBox froze, and I hadn't saved my work in Ubuntu. What should I do?

(This happened after I installed the extension pack for USB 2.0 and I went ahead and tried to access a USB port. I suspect that this led to my current situation.)

General :: Cutting Ubuntu To Bone For Virtualbox VM

Mar 31, 2010

I've been looking around for a Linux variant which will install only the software I need rather than everything Ubuntu (for example) puts in by default. This is to create a virtual machine in Virtualbox which has bash, apache, python, perl, SQLite, openssh and a few other programs but nothing else. I'd prefer to go with Ubuntu if possible but another modern distro would do as well (I like using apt-get and yum rather than downloading/compiling etc).

SuseStudio.com, which is probably the best so far.Ubuntu 9.10, by pressing F4 to get the boot options on the install disc, but there is no minimal installation (oops! had the alternate disc instead of the server disc).Arch Linux, slightly confusing install procedure but I might go back and try again.Gentoo, started well but fairly soon the HD on the virtual machine went to 2Gb, even before the installation had started in earnest (I'd partitioned the disks is all).I realise there are various "small" Linuxes around like Puppy, Feather, DSL, etc, but they seem to be aimed at desktop users or as a techie's toolkit, and I want a small-as-possible server distro which can be managed with tools like apt or yum or similar.

General :: Cannot Ssh Into Ubuntu Guest On Virtualbox 4.0.4 On Windows 7

May 15, 2011

I have an Ubuntu guest installed on Virtualbox 4.0.4 running on Windows 7 Home Premium. I have two firewall rules for Vbox which allow any, any inbound for both TCP and UDP and those rules have edge traversal enabled. I have host ports 9080 and 9022 forwarded to 80 and 22 on the guest. The Win7 box is on an Ethernet connection

After some testing, I have a netbook with a Wifi connection and Ubuntu netbook remix which cannot make an ssh connection to the Ubuntu guest.

But, the same netbook can telnet to port 9080 on the Win7 machine's address and successfully connect to a web server running on port 80 of the Ubuntu guest.

In order to check this out, I ran initctl stop ssh on the Ubuntu guest, verified thagt port 22 had no listeners, and ran ssh with /usr/sbin/sshd -d -e. This shows various bits of debug info from the console. Then I ran Putty on the win7 machine to connect to port 9022 on it's own IP address (that it got from DHCP) and made a successful connection to the guest Ubuntu.

The variable that I don't know much about is the landlord's cable router setup, but I can't figure out why that would block packets to 9022 but not packets to 9080.

Jun 23, 2011

I have Ubuntu Server 10.04 TLS installed on a Virtual Machine in a VirtualBox. The size of the Hard Drive is dynamic growing hard drive and the maximum is 32GB. At the beginning I had 4GB on the Hard Drive and the size of the .vdi was 4GB. Lately the size of data on the disk is 15GB but the size of the .vdi is almost 32GB. Why is that? How can I pack / optimize / defrag the HD so it will be the same size of the data on the disk?

General :: Virtualbox Not Running X

Oct 18, 2010

I am trying to install X on my Arch system, but as you know there is a problem with running X as a guest in Vb.

According to the Wiki, X will work on VB 3.2.9, but every time I try to follow the link the URL is not available. Does anybody know how to get this download?

According to the wiki, 3.2.10 will not work with X, but I am not certain if there is a problem with the version I am currently running (3.2.8).

Code:

sis5595_smbus 0000:00:01:0 SIS5595 not detcted, module not inserted
sis630_smbus " " SIS630 comp. bus not detected " "

These 2 are in a bug report, but haven't seen any documentation to resolve or should I say insert modules. [URL] The computer actually boots to the desktop, origianlly ony boot to console Also sound card cs46xx not installed, I've tried to patch, but fails "./write_images" [URL] After posting I ran lspci -knn does this mean that the actual modules are loaded?

Quote:

If i2c is loaded then do I ignore sis-5595 errors? Is this related to the missing floppy drive
