![]() | I'll update if I can ever figure out what's going wrong.I was having the similar issue when using VirtualBox on Ubuntu 12.04LTS. It shows some sort of browser error was encountered, but then goes away before I can read it. | P.S.- For some reason I can't get it to accept an attached. The bottom-most snippet shows the CentOS toolbar now selected/active. Now I can finally see the Inner Hosts (CentOS's) full-screen target area. Going down to the next snippet, I turned off the Outer-Hosts tool-bar by switching to its full-screen 'Exclusive Mode'. The light blue Outer Hosts VMware toolbar is still visible. The next snippet down shows the Win-7 'Inner Guest' in it's own full-screen mode (running under CentOS virtualization, which is in turn running under VMware workstation virtualization). The light blue sliver can be pulled down to get to the 'Outer-Hosts' VMware tools, as seen in the next snippet down. The top-most snippet shows the CentOS 'Outer Guest' desktop in full-screen mode of VMware workstation (under a Windows-7 host). In case anyone was actually interested, here's a picture with a series of screen-grabs, with each snippet showing only the top section of the display at that moment. > (I'll try to attach a picture in a future edit, if I can get one). (This removes the VMware menu from the screen, uncovering the thin line I need to see to find the right hover area).Īt any rate, thanks and I hope this helps anyone else trying to do the same thing. I then put the Outer Host's (VMware) full-screen session into 'Exclusive mode' so I could now see the thin line for the 'Inner Hosts' full-screen drop-down menu. ![]() ![]() (I'll try to attach a picture in a future edit, if I can get one).Īs it was, I ended up changing the default 'attention' keys for the VMware 'Outer Host' to be 'Ctl-Shift' from the default 'Ctrl-Alt' to try and avoid conflict with the 'Ctrl-Alt' that the 'Inner Host' was using. So, the VMware 'Outer Hosts' toolbar 'sliver' was hiding the even thinner sliver showing where to hover the mouse for the qemu/kvm/libvirt/virtual manager/gtk-vnc/'whatever it is' nested guest's full-screen window toolbar. When you bring your mouse up to the top of the screen 'sliver', this causes the VMware toolbar to drop down to display Controls for this guest. So, the VMware drop-down menu displays as a sliver across the top of the screen (about two thirds of the width). I had tried various keystrokes, but to no avail.Īs it turns out, things were more difficult for me because I was actually running CentOS in a VMware Workstation Virtual machine in full-screen mode. ![]() I kept trying to find a reference document ) somewhere (using google), but seemed to find everything but what I needed. > A little applet drops down to allow you to leave full screen and send key-combinations. ![]() Is this a one-way switch, or should I be able to switch back to a windowed view? If I can switch back (or otherwise bring up the Console controls) what is the technique? I see the Virtual machine running in the console window, and can use the panel to switch between the 'Console' and 'Details' view without a problem.Ĭlicking on the consoles 'full-screen' icon switches the display to a full-screen, but now I don't know how to get back to the Windowed view. I believe I am using the KVM feature of qemu-kvm in case that's relevant.Īt any rate I can start the Virtual machine in the 'Virtual Manager Console' (starting at the 'Virtual Machine Manager' panel). I left the default display type as 'VNC'. I set up a CentOS 6.2 64-Bit system, and then created a Windows -7 (64-Bit) guest Virtual machine using the 'Virtual Machine Manager' GUI. But, I'm assuming that there's a way to toggle back and forth between full-screen and the console window. I know can leave full-screen mode by shutting down the Guest. I've been tearing my hair out trying to figure out how to toggle out of a full-screen session of a Virtual machine launched with the Virtual Machine manager (back to the Windowed Console). ![]()
