Could you make a working VirtualBox image of the latest > stable release available? That in itself would be incredibly useful. Which brings me back to the need for a server with a reasonable connection on which to run the conversion. My home cable connection gets ~ 4Kbps upstream (which we discovered with uploading the Developer's Images, stupid throttling), which makes even a 200MB upload painful (14 some-odd hours). I'm thinking we can just put a box at 1cc (or wherever) to do the conversions. Installing Qemu takes a few minutes on any reasonable Linux machine and the script will produce the VMWare image within a matter of seconds from the downloaded file (all automated), *much* faster than my uploading it from way out here.
VirtualBox is the one that has both network and sound working, btw. VMWare only has networking at the moment (just a missing driver). BTW, stable release 542 does *not* have the drivers, so it will *not* work. Have fun, Mike -- ________________________________________________ Mike C.
