<div>== vmware ==<br />
Anybody, any experience with how to use existing vmware virtual machine in virtualbox? I tried, but without success. I'll retry using: http://liquidat.wordpress.com/2007/11/23/howto-transform-a-qemu-image-to-a-virtualbox-image/ and post my findings.<br />
<br />
== Removal of VBoxClient-all ==<br />
<br />
Why is there no mention of /usr/bin/VBoxClient-all script? It is imporant for getting the final touches for an archlinux guest to work correctly.<br />
<br />
== vboxusers group ==<br />
It would be nice if someone explained why you might need to add your user to {{Ic|vboxusers}} group. I did not add my user to this group and everything worked as expected. --[[User:Bhobbit|Bhobbit]] 19:11, 12 April 2010 (EDT)<br />
<br />
== vbox-service ==<br />
<br />
In section "Synchronise guest date with host" it should be noted that starting ''vbox-service'' is also required for the auto mounting feature to work. For example, creating a ''Shared Folder'' with the options ''Make Permanent'' and ''Auto-Mount'' selected will NOT auto mount in ''/media/sf_<SHARE_NAME>'' if ''vbox-service'' has not been started. --[[User:Sjroe|sjroe]] 19:13, 30 December 2011 (EST)<br />
<br />
== <s> New change Heads up </s> ==<br />
<br />
Some changes will be introduced in the next package release of virtualbox.<br />
<br />
*vboxbuild will be dropped in favor of upstream provided dkms config.(FS#30692) (FS#30749) (FS#28792)<br />
You will be able to build your virtualbox modules by running<br />
$ dkms install vboxhost/4.1.18<br />
or you can let dkms rc script compile/install/load your modules with<br />
$ rc.d start dkms<br />
vboxweb and vboxservice gain systemd service files (FS#30725)<br />
*vbox-service will be renamed into vboxservice and config file is now backuped. (FS#30692)<br />
*virtualbox-archlinux-additions add a new group named vboxsf (FS#30725)<br />
*a new package (virtualbox-archlinux-source) will allow compilation (via dkms) of virtualbox guest kernel modules.<br />
<br />
Page should be updated one new version is released. <br />

== vboxnetflt ==<br />
<br />
I had to modprobe vboxnetflt and add it in /etc/modules-load.d to be able to run the virtualbox GUI application.<br />

<br />
== vdfuse ==<br />
<br />
The tool [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=31200 vdfuse] (if it works with archlinux) could be suggested in the [[VirtualBox#Mounting_.vdi_Images|Mounting .vdi Images]] section instead of telling that it's impossible. -- [[User:Heinrich5991|Heinrich5991]] ([[User talk:Heinrich5991|talk]]) 11:01, 3 October 2012 (UTC)</div>Heinrich5991
