Hi Folks,

I'm contemplating my first 11.0 install on amd-64 and I'm
wondering if the binary version of Virtualbox (with usb)
works with 11.0. The Nvidia binary driver is also of
concern. Does anyone have any experience with these
packages? Any issues?

Thanks in advance,
Lew

Hi Lew

I'm using both - the nvidia binary blob driver for 3d effects (this works ok,
but my laptop is crippled by a rubbish nvidia card,so I disabled it) as well
as the current VB from the build service. I haven't tried USB with VB, but
for booting basic Win XP desktops in both standard and seamless mode it works
well.

I haven't had so much luck with ndiswrapper, but I'll try again tomorrow.

Good luck.

Cheers

Pete
