Is this perhaps the only window X11 has running? Like, running completely raw? No toolbars or such?

Literally the only window. Nothing else. Not even desktop widgets and such.

AH ok..Nup im running it on a desktop system GDM DM.

I understand also right now if in the startvm.bsh script i execute the command inside the script "vboxheadless" in the child process. It throws also an error complaining gnome-terminal can't create child processes..

thanks for responce..

Wrench That will keep the window open

Code:
echo -n “Press any key to continue…”
CFG=`stty -g`
stty -echo -icanon
dd count=1 1>/dev/null 2>&1
stty $CFG
echo
