Docs: minor things
Posted: 2. Jul 2011, 01:37
- Mac OS X Lion Allows virtualization. It means that upcoming 4.1.0 docs must stop focus on the "Mac OS X Server" term.
Frank: perhaps we will change that in the future, but currently we only support Mac OS X server
1.1. Same for GUI - OS types. - Changelog:
"Windows guests: Experimental WDDM graphics driver" -->
"Windows guests: Experimental WDDM / Aero graphics driver"
(solved in my patch) - WONTFIX Changelog:
VMM: raised the memory limit for 64-bit hosts to 1TB
My understanding is that guest VM RAM limit was raised *on* 64-bit hosts. (not *for*)
Frank: as written below, the current phrase seems to be not that wrong - WONTFIX Changelog:
Guest Additions: modules and features now are represented as facilities to have a common interface for frontends.
This one I re-read several times, but compeletely unable to understand it's meaning.
I see the various 'facilities' in "showvminfo" command, but don't understand it's advantages vs. 4.0. - Changelog lacks: (minor)
GUI: CPU execution cap
Frank: Problem here is that this feature is actually also available in VBox 4.0 but less integration (no GUI support at all)
(solved in my patch) - FIXED: "1.5. Installing VirtualBox and extension packs"
Should mention "PCI passthrough".
Frank: Already done in 4.1 Beta 3 - FIXED in BETA3: Docs for GuestControl Execute outdated
http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=42724 - "6.8 VDE networking" It can only run, if you have library installed into "/usr/lib/libvdeplug.so" location. (for other locations you can hardlink)
(solved in my patch) - Changelog lacks: (minor)
USB Tablet device now supports Windows 98 guests
(solved in my patch)
