The new locking/unlocking stuff in 3.3 (4.0?) is nice, and certainly a
lot more intuitive than the previous openSession stuff. However, I
find obtaining and managing a lock is still pretty verbose, and it's

You might want to look at the VBoxWeb code, since it also starts
headless/vrdp sessions.

Have you looked at the addcustommode option for the VBoxControl
executable in the guest additions?
I've only ever had a need to do this with a Windows guest, so I don't
know if all the GA platforms have VBoxControl.

The attached patch is against the current svn head (20158), but has
not been tested since the svn version won't build right now. I have
tested an identical patch against the 2.2.2 tarball without an issue.

What do you mean by "the" running VMs?
IVirtualBox::machines[] will give you a list of all the existing VMs,
you can then look at IMachine::state to see if they're running or not.

In in interest of trying to start a community project that utilizes

Per the documentation of IVirtualBox::openRemoteSession, the currently
supported session types are gui and vrdp.
With the OSE version, gui works, but vrdp errors out. I assume this is
because OSE lacks vrdp support.

I contributed the original evdev keyboard support patch to VBoxSDL a while
ago, and just noticed that more keycodes have been added in
src/VBox/Frontends/VirtualBox4/src/X11/keyboard-types.h
This patch just adds those keycodes to VBoxSDL.cpp.

Since he refers to the svn rev he's using, I think it's safe to assume he's
using the debian packaging environment that ships with Vbox.

Please find attached a short example of a VirtualBox webservice client
written in Python. It was written to pretty closely mirror the existing
Java example. It's released under the MIT license

a use for it, have at it.

Christian,
Thank you kindly... Apparently I made a dumb assumption and thought
the webservice auth method was null by default. Works fine now.
