[vbox-dev] Call for testing, second try (Linux and Solaris Guest Additions)

[Michael Thayer]

Second try<1>, hopefully with the first regression fixed.  I have 
already found one new one myself: I started a terminal, switched to 
seamless mode, switched to a virtual terminal and back and cancelled the 
switch back to seamless.  Result: the second guest screen was set to a 
0x0 resolution (checked with xrandr) and blacked out.

All additional testing is welcome, I will fix my regression tomorrow and 
any others (if there are any, which is quite likely) as fast as I can as 
they are reported!

Thanks!

Regards,

Michael
