Just thought I'd happily report that openSUSE 10.3 seems to run Vista under Virtualbox very nicely. So far Vista hasn't crashed once, and 10.3 handles multiple tasks very well. Two questions:
1) Is this a multi-core or multi-processor system?
Guest VM is always uniprocessor. Vista works fine with that. Of course CPU must be fast (2 GHz) and have 1 GB of RAM.
2) How does Vista cope with the virtualized graphics adaptor? (I was under the impression it required a heavy-duty graphics card.)
Vista needs good video card for advanced 3D effects (Aero Glass). It can work in basic mode with standard VGA card. The Vista experience is bad without it.
How is Vista good? First time I booted into Vista and tried to use the remote that came with the laptop to adjust the volume the thing froze solid. Other minor things will freeze the system tight. And this is with booting into the hardware *not* a VM. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
