-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Howdy Guys, After the announcement from Alexander Eichner about Virtualbox on FreeBSD, we started the work on a port for FreeBSD. Now we think that we solved the most problems and are ready for the first Call for Testing. Some notes before you can test the port: Make sure you are using RELENG_7 or higher. You have to use a fresh portstree with uptodate ports!! Please read carefully the pkg-messages. Some known issues / Troubleshooting: Sometimes the kernel on HEAD coredumps when loading or unloading the kernel module. A small workaround to prevent the crash is to not start X, mount proc, then load the kernel module and start X from the console. That helped me and some testers, maybe you too. :P AMD64 should be work in general, it builds and start. But not right tested at the moment. We want here also some feedback. Some Thanks: First of all we'd like to say many thanks to _ALL_ vbox developers. Next people are Bernhard Froehlich (aka decke), Beat Gaetzi (beat_at_), Dennis Herrmann (dhn_at_), Pietro Cerutti (gahr_at_), myself (*gg*), and _ALL_ who helped and provided feedback. Happy Testing :-) Download: http://people.freebsd.org/~miwi/vbox/vboxport.tgz Wiki Page: http://wiki.freebsd.org/VirtualBox - Martin - -- +-----------------------+-------------------------------+ | PGP : 0xB1E6FCE9 | Jabber : miwi(at)BSDCrew.de | | ICQ : 169139903 | Mail : miwi(at)FreeBSD.org | +-----------------------+-------------------------------+ | Mess with the Best, Die like the Rest! | +-----------------------+-------------------------------+ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.11 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkoMbSUACgkQdLJIhLHm/OnNnACeJsT7H9hW1J7CV70P3Ty+q0CA kD8AoMLCPbltY999/8qO6fnaqv4UQ9QT =LcoD -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----Received on Thu May 14 2009 - 17:31:05 UTC
