Description Martin Birgmeier 2019-06-28 08:29:57 UTC
Scenario:
- FreeBSD 12 release latest patchset
- VirtualBox, KDE installed from ports via portmaster, latest updates
- Several different types of VMs; differentiation is according to VBox settings ("Type" and "Version", e.g., "Windows 7 (64 bit)", "FreeBSD (32 bit)", etc.)

Result:
- While VMs and/or the VirtualBox admin program are running, the task manager shows corresponding icons for each of them
- All of these icons are the stylized "VM" (white craggly line) on a blue background
- In contrast, the icons in each window's titlebar differ by VM type

Expected result:
- The icons shown in the task manager should differ by VM type
- This was the case until some virtualbox-ose version quite long ago
