Paging the VirtualBox-isti

operational paradigm error.

 

it's quite straightforward to move a jeep around in a horse and cart as well,
although why anyone would choose to do so is beyond me.

 

*fail*

you didn't use the obligatory linux/mactard fanboy term "M$" in your
post.

 

what century are you living in?

 

I'm suprised you can get it to co-operate at all. Stubborn buggers they
are.

 

Even I stopped using that.

 

I've cured the problem entirely by installing the VirtualBox Guest
Additions which was one click on the menu, now the Windows XP guest
machine (which is running on OSX Leopard) has all of the drivers to
think it's a proper machine, including Direct3D stuff.

 

I've just been installing OpenSolaris on the eeePC .... 'cos I can
And accessing my desktop via SGD so I could run VirtUalBox sessions form the
eeePC...'cos I can....

I need to get a life

 

So how is OpenSolaris in terms of memory foot print and general resource
hogging? What are the upsides and downsides in comparison to other OS's?

How's sound support and video drivers?
