The guest has been started in headless more using ""vboxvrdp -startvm"". I use the Windows XP remote desktop client to connect to the guest without problems. However if I alt-tab switch windows away and back to the guest any characters typed are garbled, i.e. appear as if they're are prefixed with a control key. e.g. If I type 'asd' this shows up as ^[a^[s^[d. The only way to resolve this is to switch virtual consoles while connected to the guest. So Alt-F2 (to swtich to console 2) and then Alt-F1 (to switch back to console 1). If I then switch windows and switch back to the guest the same thing occurs and requires using the workaround to be able to type anything.",defect,closed,RDP,VirtualBox 1.5.0,obsolete,,,other,other
