virtualbox-ose on FBSD

I have completed installing VB on FBSD with good results to report.  Though
it did require several days of researching various system tweaks the up and
running VB that I have is almost 100% on par with VMware.  I have a couple
of Windows VMs running and I believe FBSD is a better virtual host than
VMware on Fedora.  However, since I have not run VB on Fedora nor VMware on
FreeBSD this is only an unsupported observation at this point.

I would like to communicate with the FBSD VM evangelist about several
topics if possible one topic is regarding USB.

Also, I would like to communicate with the FBSD desktop evangelist as well
about a few ideas particularly someone who has access to Firefox/Mozilla
developers.

Thanks

Paul

Re: virtualbox-ose on FBSD

Paul,

I have too had good results with VB.. However what I find it lacks is a good central management solution. That
is something even Xen falls short on..

Also are you utilizing a local ZFS? If so be careful on memory allocation all around.
