Which Linux best supported?

Hi.

I'm very new to Virtualbox.

Which Linux distro is most likely to be supported/receive the best support for use with Virtualbox as both host and guest operating systems?

This question was prompted by the fact that I noticed under Status: Guest OSes that OpenSUSE 11 support is only partial at the moment.

Am I going to have the least number of issues if I adopt Ubuntu?

Thanks for any help that you can offer.

Tony

The support for Ubuntu 8.04 and now 8.10 is now pretty solid.

I agree with Terry. Most of my guests are Ubuntu-based. I also use Debian (some would argue it is the same thing) with great results.
