Virtualbox 3.0.10?

Post by x-Na »

Why my apt-get is suggesting Virtualbox 3.0.10, but site itself doesn't say anything about it?

It's a test run. There are still quite some issues, so I suggest you don't upgrade. Especially if you have Windows Guests, no hardware-V options and enabled I/O APIC for them.

Just a few more hours, then a fixed version should be out.

Same release number, different build. Problem is software virtualization, so if you have VT-x or AMD-v on, you're not having much problems.
