            Bug ID: 217405
           Summary: emulators/virtualbox-ose: GUI does not accept keyboard
                    input over ssh connection
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: vbox at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bacon4000 at gmail.com

1) ssh -Y some.other.host
2) VirtualBox
3) Click "New"
4) Try to enter a VM name in the "Name" box and there is no response.  Mouse
events are still handled properly, so I can work around it by cutting and
pasting the text I need from some other window.
