I am testing

https://svn.bluelife.at/nightlies/virtualbox-port-r1273.tar.gz

on FreeBSD 8.2 amd64.

So far, both a Windows XP SP2 (vdi imported from other machine) and a Ubuntu 
10.10 (fresh install) guest seems to work great. Both with VT etc enabled (the 
host is a Core7 Intel).

I've built only headless (only VNC and VDE support in the ports config) and 
start stuff

VBoxHeadless -n -s buildslave_winxp_vc2010

and access from Windows with TightVNC or VNC Viewer (Real VNC).

Problem is with keyboard map: it is weird  .. I am using a german keyboard, y 
and z are swapped, but the real annoyance are "funny" chars like {/$- etc etc. 
(it's not like the "usual" mixup when running german kbd with US map .. )

I tried to config the port with NLS .. but it says that required Qt which I 
don't have/want on that machine.

Am I expected to do s.th. different or is there anything I can do/try?

Anyway .. really nice to have that port,
Tobias
