About two weeks ago I asked some questions about runlevel 3 with openSuSE versus Mint. The answers were helpful and I was able to get past that so that I can boot to non-graphical. That all started with trying to use Virtualbox and believing that I needed a newer graphics card. Now I have the host system with Mint KDE and the new Nvidia 960. I am now trying to install several different Linux distributions as Virtualbox guests. It took a bit of work but finally I was able to install two versions of Mint and get them to work properly with the host graphics card. Now I am trying to install openSuSE Leap 42.1 as a Virtualbox guest on this same system but am not having as much luck. The installation seemed to go OK and it booted OK after the install but I did get a message suggesting I update the Virtualbox guest components. After the update, I reboot the guest and I get most of the normal desktop but the taskbar is missing. I can click on the lower left corner where the app launcher button would be and I get the menu. I can click on any app such as console but it doesn't appear on the desktop. I can then click on where the taskbar should be and can see that the app is there but nothing actually appears on the desktop. Anyone have an idea what might be wrong? On a related (sort of) subject, I thought I might try to get a console (ctl alt F1) but I don't know how to get that key sequence to go to the guest and not the host. Can anyone please tell me how I can get a console in a guest? Damon Register -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
