hi, my phpvirtualbox works, except that I can only see screenshot of the guests, while the "Console" tab on the top is greyed. This page http://code.google.com/p/phpvirtualbox/source/browse/wiki/Installation.wiki?r=210 said: "In order to access a VM's console over RDP (via phpVirtualBox's console tab, or other RDP client) you must install the *Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack* from: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads" However, although VirtualBox Extension Pack can be installed, "VBoxManage list extpacks" outputs the following: VRDE Module: VBoxVRDP Usable: false Why unusable: Failed to locate the main module ('VBoxPuelMain') So does that mean, phpvirtualbox on freebsd does NOT have Console feature? Without remote console phpvirtualbox would be useless! Or did I miss anything? Another option to have remote console is just to use the virtualbox's builtin VNC support. But I want to have no X installed on the host. Does that VNC work with no X installed on the host?help
