Virtualbox is not compatible #26

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
It does not work correctly in Virtualbox. 
Similar to #4 (Virtualbox is QT application)

Example:
Hallo -> hallo or halllo
The result is random.

My workaround:
#script
for x in 'Hallo':
    system.exec_command("sleep 0.01 && xdotool type " + x)
(xdotool must be installed)

version:
0.61.5 on Ubuntu 9.10

This is a bug in QT. It is fixed in QT4.5, hopefully one day Sun will finally 
get
their act together and upgrade Virtualbox to use it.

Nasty workaround 'fix' will be in v0.80.0 as Virtualbox still exhibits this 
problem after more than a year.
