HOWTO: Perfect VirtualBox Integration (auto start, rdesktop on workspace 2, etc).

[edmondt]

I have found myself using less of VirtualBox these days, since I can now sync my iPhone 3Gs and Windows Mobile from Ubuntu, Outlook 2007 works amazingly well with Crossover Office. But I have VirtualBox just in case I want to run iTunes or Paint Shop Pro etc.

Latest screenshot on Ubuntu 9.10 (attached wallpaper):





I changed the XP taskbar to the same color as the panel color to a more integrated look

Edit: The Ubuntu menu is actually the mintmenu (I simply change the menu icon and change the wording to say "UBUNTU")

Well, now im working with SeamlessRDP and Runs Fine.. but i have a question...

I want to enable this:

Disable window borders for rdesktop and shadows:

Goto: Window Decoration
Decoration windows: any & !(class=rdesktop)
Shadow windows: & !(type=Dock) & !(class=rdesktop)

But in every single user logged on my pc or another Ubuntu Desktop.

I need to deploy this configuration on several PC, but i cant make it automatic (i've copied .compiz folder on /etc/skel),my goal is make a LiveCD with SeamlessRDP, the appz are on a W2k3 Server, when i execute the shortcut on the LiveCD, the window appears but with the gnome border, i only want to see is the Windows Border.

I do the configuration in a single machine, works well, but i want to do more automatic because i need to use in LiveCD or with another logged user.

Any thoughts?
