I have a dual monitor set up. OS is Windows 7. Installed VB the other day so I can have a Linux box at my disposal, I use Linux as the main OS on several machines and I didnt want to dual boot this box, or have a second computer running. I use VM Ware at work as well, and with the VMWare tools installed, you can easily drag the VMWare window over to a secondary monitor, click "Full Screen" and it fills that screen, giving you the look and feel of a dual machine setup running Synergy between the two screens and computers. As if the host machine was one monitor, and the VM was another PHYSICAL computer plugged into the other. However, with Virtualbox, it ALWAYS wants to follow the task bar in windows. It doesnt matter what monitor i set as main or anything, whichever screen i put the taskbar on, thats where the VM jumps to in full screen, OR in seamless mode. more than a little irritating, and I was just curious if it was even possible to do what I do in VMWare in VB? Its not the end of the world if not, it would just be nice.
