Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] How to install MATE or Gnome Desktop?
Thank you so much. Why nobody fixed it and why VirtualBox doesn't have any "illumos" and "OpenIndiana" in its list?

Auto resize doesn't work for OI. You have to use the Display utility under Preferences of your MATE menu to change to a resolution you want. This resolution is fixed. Anytime you need a different resolution, you need to change it again. It's the reason why I always set the resolution equals to the resolution of the host system and always launch OI in full screen mode. BTW, other people was right. The guest addition for OI doesn't support VMSVGA. You have to switch to VBoxVGA. Even VBoxSVGA will not work. Hope it helps. ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] How to install MATE or Gnome Desktop?
Thank you. It's worked. It is a little odd for me, I already installed virtualbox-additions package, but Auto-resize doesn't work. I did: # pkg install virtualbox-additions # pkg update # reboot And, it's worked.

I believe this is because no one has done the work to contribute that to the open source project, and no one has paid Oracle's VirtualBox team to do the work themselves. OS'es with tiny user bases don't get support added by just wishing for it, and having an already listed OS be close enough for most purposes pushes it even further down the priority list. -alan- ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] python-gi in OI?
Hi. Sorry for being late for the party... Where is from virt-manager is coming? Gobject introspection (gi module) is available for 64-bit python. Try to use one of Python3.x.

For Illumos, you have to choose Solaris 10 or later 64 bit as OS type and another important thing is enable Use host cache under Storage of VM Setting. Without it, the VM runs like a snail. I don't know why it's not set by default. Other OSes just set Use host IO cache by default. ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
