It has just been updated to v1.3.4 which resolves many bugs and several crashes. -Alexey Eremenko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How was the speed? Did it require kernel modules? I would imagine so. At least on SUSE where the kernel is before 2.6.20 with the new virtualization support. Speed seems to be good, I didn't really notice any significant slowdown compared to a real pc. No kernel modules required on 2.6.18.

[opensuse] Excellent news: VirtualBox full virtualization OSS solution for Linux!
hi susers! At last ! The virtualization revolution in Linux happens ! Until now, Linux had no quality virtualization available. At least no OSS solution existed, that is also user-friendly. Yesterday the world changed with the introduction of Innotek's VirtualBox (dual-licensed under GPL and proprietary license). This solution feels like professional VirtualPC/VMware Workstation: allows full integration of guest OSes (mouse pointer, etc...), works with Linux and Windows 2000/XP guests and hosts, and has a nice Qt3-based GUI. And it's Free ! Unfortunately AMD64 arch and Win9x OS are not supported at all. Not host and not guest. This solution is *much* more stable than Qemu/Xen/Bochs whatever the OSS world has today. (through it's still less stable than MS Virtual PC 2004) It is also *very* fast: Windows 2000 Guest installed run faster than under VMware/VirtualPC. So please try it, if you like VMware and emulators in general. I seriously want this solution to be included in the main repository for openSUSE 10.3.
