Are the virtio devices provided by Linux KVM the same as those provided by VirtualBox ? Certainly their website says that the networking one is. How about giving the drivers provided by /usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions a try and see if they will work with KVM ? -pete. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
