virtualbox requests updates in a loop

(1/2) > >>

netnomad:
hi friends,

my virtualbox-package vbox.sce wants to be updated again and again.

this is my vbox.sce.lst
virtualbox-4.3.18-host-modules-3.16.6-tinycore
virtualbox-qt

i experience a second issue or a further bug:
the icon in my wbar works fine,
but the menue-entry in fluxbox leads to an error message:
Neither freedesktop file nor vbox executable exists.  Please invoke from terminal or menu.

my ondemand-menue in fluxbox:
[submenu](OnDemand)
[exec](vbox){/etc/sysconfig/tcedir/ondemand/vbox}
[end] OnDemand

the third issue is that my keyboard-layout in xorg is changed by loading this virtualbox-package.
after changing the keyboard-layout with setkbdmap in a terminal everything works fine again.

i understand the cause of these problems, but perhaps you know tiny solutions or you tell us ways to solve these cosmetic issues on our own?

thank you for your patience and help.

netnomad:
some additional informations:

i changed my package-name from vbox.sce to virtualbox.sce,
that my ondemand-menue works.

starting virtualbox.sce with ondemand, i get my normal standard-fonts.
starting virtualbox.sce with wbar, i get tiny unusual small fonts.

thank you for your help.

Jason W:
I will look into this tonight.

netnomad:
hi jason,

the update loops are corrected now,
but the other issues remained...

especially the keyboard change is really unpleasant...
do you see there a chance for a little hack to load the original loaded keyboard layout, after loading virtualbox?

thank you for your help!

Jason W:
I am not familiar with the keyboard behavior of Virtualbox.  Is this it's standard expected behavior or more like a bug?
