1This file contains some notes about things to try out to give the X.Org video
2driver a reasonably thorough test. We will add cases of things which have been
3known to fail in the past to this file as we discover them.
4
5 * Test XFree86 guests (CentOS 3), early X.Org (CentOS 5) and recent
6 (CentOS 6 and 7, current Ubuntu/Fedora). Test Solaris guests (10 and 11?).
7 * Dynamic resizing with and without VBoxClient running. The driver will
8 currently always use HGSMI for mode hints, but should check data sent by
9 VBoxClient. On Solaris guests, dynamic resizing is only expected to
10 react immediately if VBoxClient and the kernel driver are running.
11 * Disabling and enabling virtual screens.
12 * Dynamic resizing with one of more virtual screens disabled.
13 * Test switching to virtual terminals and back from windowed, full screen and
14 seamless modes.
15 * Test enabling and disabling guest screens from the host.
16 * execute "xprop -root | grep VBOX" after resizing a screen: VBOX_SIZE_HINTS
17 should be set, and VBOX_SIZE_HINTS_MISMATCH should equal 0.
18 * Shutting down and re-starting a virtual machine should restore the last size
19 for all monitors (note: currently only after log-in).
