VirtualBox on BSD ?

Post by Tomse »

What are the plans for implementing VB on BSD ?

It seems it's not possible with the current source code hence the use of ALSA and other Linux dependent modules.

I really hope that you will consider porting it to BSD.

AFAIK: While the GUI is portable, the kernel code is not.

If there is some volunteer to write kernel-mode drivers for BSD, it could work.

The same problems are relevant for Solaris as well.

Unfortunately I'm not a programmer :-(

But I hope someone will take up the job :-)
