RE: Slow Ubuntu on Virtualbox
It's working fine for me when I run it from Live USB. I don't know what's the problem on virtualbox. Date: Fri, 21 Sep 2012 13:01:21 -0400 Subject: Re: Slow Ubuntu on Virtualbox From: michaelharde...@gmail.com To: sanchitgang...@outlook.com I have been wondering, I also had the beta one running in virtual box, I was only able to give 800mb of ram to it. And it is so slow it is unusable. I even tried the live cd version of beta one on the actual physical computer hardware, it was also unusable. With this info, can anyone tell me if it will be that slow when it is actually released for upgrade, or be faster?
