Message:

bugref:8533: Additions/x11: fully support VMSVGA
Add VBoxClient support for dynamic resizing with VMSVGA enabled. This is not yet started by default. VBoxClient --vmsvga should be run as root outside of an X session for recent versions of the Linux kernel and interacts with the SVGA kernel graphics driver. When run inside an X session it interacts with the X11 graphics driver.

Location:

trunk/src/VBox/Additions/x11/VBoxClient

Files:

• Makefile.kmk (modified) (1 diff)
• VBoxClient.h (modified) (1 diff)
• display-svga.cpp (added)
• main.cpp (modified) (3 diffs)
