Hi All,

just found VirtualBox binaries in an xterm which brings up the GUI

Will test out a small vm and then try to work out if it will, or will not,
run in a local zone and let everyone know the results.
Cheers,

Another detail if you are going to use a browser over VNC: turn off "smooth

Thanks for your response, Andreas.
I'm updating my packages now to see if I can find the way to install
VirtualBox 6 since it did not show up when I initially did a search:
