Hello developers.

I installed beta3 64bit on two computers (see below) and experienced the 
following problems. (I used the "minimal server"- Installation on PC1 and KDE4 
for PC2)

1. Booting the beta3 DVD I tested the (F9)-speech feature. Then I selected 
language->german and started the installation. The installation started in 
textmode. When I did not press F9 in the beginning the installation would 
start in graphics mode. (tested on PC2)

2. YAST -> software installation (in the installation process and on the 
installed system): 
- No installed software is listed on the first screen (the installed packages 
should be listed). - seen on both PC1 and PC2
- When searching for a software package no activity/busy-sign is visible (so I 
don't know if YAST started searching, is still searching or did crash) - seen 
on both PC1 and PC2
- Selecting an installed package and clicking on the "files" tab shows "0 
Files" (experienced this with the VirtualBox std and debug kernel drivers) - 
seen on PC2

3. VirtualBox doesn't work out of the box. I installed "VirtualBox-ose" with 
YAST. When I started VB, setup a VM and tried to start this VM, VB complained 
that the kernel driver was not installed. It suggested to me to 
run "/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup". That shut down the VB driver and restarted 
it. Now I got a different error message - I have to belong to the group 
vboxusers. After joining the group I could install WinXP in my VM. - seen on 
PC2

Cheers
Michael
