i have ubuntu in a virtualbox vm and im finding that firefox seems to be slowish in it. like it will take a couple of seconds for the right click context menu to show up. is this normal? the host machine is a laptop dual-core pentium d @ 1.8ghz and im allocating the vm with 1gb of ram and 12mb of video memory. whats strange is i have vista and google chrome on a vm as well and the problem is not evident there.

I have no issues with Firefox on Ubuntu. However I have had bundles of issues with virtual machines.
Do you have an ATI video card? I find that FF on Linux with an ATI video sucks.... Not sure about that in a virtual machine though.

I have an nVidia.

Why not just dual boot? I mean I got a pretty crappy pc (Sempron 3000+ processor with 512 mb ram...) and it run perfect, its just that I cant run like 5 tabs at the same time without some slowing...
Well, the problem would be, does your CPU have the intel virtualization technology support?
If you have it, try to enable it also why firefox runs slow on ubuntu, your running either live cd, or you have messed up mozilconf...
So be more specific pl0x :>
Jordan & John - It doesn't matter what video card your on when your using a VM, since it you get an emulated video card for the VM
I don't dual boot Ubuntu due to driver issues.
Turk4n - I'm running it installed onto the Virtual Hard Drive. I have Intel Virtualization Technology settings in my BIOS except Toshiba have made the option locked to off.
