    Starting a VM on boot in second workspace?

    I currently have a VirtualBox installation of Windows XP that I'd like to start on boot in full screen on my second workspace (I have two - left and right). Can this be done?

    Huge thanks in advance for any answers

    (Running Ubuntu Jaunty 64-bit, fully updated.)

    Hi,

    You can go to System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications then press Add and the command type

    Code:
    VBoxManage startvm <VM name>
    To make it load always on the same workspace, take a look into this howto.




    Cheers
