My laptop is locked with optimus virtualbox

[adraniel]

When I released Optimus crashed virtualbox with the laptop and could not move the mouse, I had to turn it off completely, what happens?
Only once has blocked me, but I can go several times in the future.
Thank you, greetings.

Huh? What did you do and what happened? What do you mean by "releasing Optimus"?

[adraniel]

Nothing has happened before in the optimus check with any other program but with virtualbox in particular, maybe it happened but it happened and when I was starting virtualbox windows remained caught in the machine and had to shut down because he could not move anything . I think it was bumblebee, but I'm not sure, ask why. Before I had this happen without running optimus.

[Lekensteyn]

What is that "optimus check"...? A program in virtualbox? When your mouse is "locked" in the virtual machine you have to press your Host key which is visible on the bottom right corner of the window.

I do not mean that, in 3D Ubuntu virtualbox and ran optimus virtual machine regardless of what outsiders was also blocked.

[Lekensteyn]

It's really hard to understand you. Are you running a Ubuntu virtual machine on top of Windows?

[adraniel]

But I think that's the least I am running windows in virtualbox on Ubuntu 12.04

[Lekensteyn]

Please give some steps to reproduce. I still do not get you.

1. Start virtualbox on Ubuntu
2. Windows starts up in the VM
3. In the VM, a program does a "optimus check"
4. VM locks up (or Ubuntu locks up?), mouse cursor cannot be moved (or not moved out of the machine?)

...?

[adraniel]

1. I started virtualbox in Ubuntu
2. Windows was started in the virtual machine
3. I executed the virtual machine optimus

4 VM crashes as well as outside the virtual machine

[Lekensteyn]

Can you elaborate on (3)? What the heck is the "virtual machine optimus"?

[adraniel]

I do not speak English and I'm making a huge effort.
Or understand it is: optirun virtualbox? As difficult it is, I think.

[Lekensteyn]

Ok, so plain virtualbox works (1, 2) but optirun virtualbox (3, 4) crashes? I don't think that virtualization works with optirun, so if it crashes it is unlucky, but it could be expected.

You could try to run virtualbox directly on display :8 and then use Remote Desktop to access your windows VM.

[adraniel]

Okay, so then it is normal to crash if not supported, nothing happens.
Thank you very much for the help :)
