X-BeenThere: freebsd-emulation@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Development of Emulators of other operating systems List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2009 21:19:18 -0000 The 2 most recent versions of vbox have been stable enough for me to start using them for real work, so congrats to those working on the port! So naturally, now I want more. :) Specifically I'm curious about cd-rom and usb support. When I start the gui and go to settings for my existing winxp guest my cd-rom drive is not available on the spinner for "Host CD/DVD Drive." Is that expected? Is there something I need to do differently to make that available? I'm also curious about access to USB devices. I don't even see options for that, so is it just not possible?
