Man, besides a few resolved problems with previous nvidia drivers and vbox 3.x, I am yet to see issues on VBox and FBSD amd64 host! I am using the 4.0.5 devel port now and I'm running all sorts of guest OSes inside of it, with the SAME .vdi files of my first VBox install! Here is a list of my guests: Win7 (32&64) XP (2) Win2003 (4) Leopard OSx retail snow-leopard 10.6.7 (updated!) Fedora Debian OS-2 Of course not all of these are here since VBox day one. -- Mario Lobo http://www.mallavoodoo.com.br FreeBSD since 2.2.8 [not Pro-Audio.... YET!!] (99% winblows FREE)
