I am running photoshop in windows xp with virtualbox,the host system is Ubuntu 8.10,when I first open photoshop I find two problems:

1.When I press alt+spacebar and click left mouse button to zoom in,nothing happen. Fortunately after searched google for a while I found a solution for this problem here: simply go to System -> Preferences -> Windows and assign the super key (aka windows key) for the move windows option

2.When I press ctrl+spacebar and drag the left mouse to zoom out,I find that the draged area is locked to a small size,I can't drag it as big as I want,this problem is already been described here:"it sometimes cannot let me draw the rectangle and acts as if i've released the mouse button and zooms to a rectangle the size of few pixels. In other situations, he lets me draw the rectangle to a certain level, then locks the rectangle size and starts dragging that rectangle across the image, which is, to my knowledge, impossible to do in photoshop"

Any ideas to solve the second problem?Any helps will be greatly appreciated.

Sorry for my poor English.;)
