Hi Testers.
A few of you have probably wondered what happened to our VirtualBox
efforts for FreeBSD. Well it took a bit longer then expected and a few
problems were found that needed to be resolved first but most of the
things are looking fine now and almost all patches have been pushed
upstream with 4.0.4 so here we are now.
We will continue to work on VirtualBox for FreeBSD and upstream is
also very helpful to us but we could need a few more hands to better
keep up with the work and especially improve and fix the Guest
Additions. So if you want to help please contact us or have a look at
our Todo list.
This result wouldn't have been possible without the continuous help of
the VirtualBox Developers and a lot of people from the FreeBSD
community! (names in alphabetical order and probably missed a few,
sorry
for that!)

Please when testing this ports backup all your virtual machines first.
Also please build the port with DEBUG option enabled and send us the
logfile when any VM crashes. Without them it's very hard to figure out
what went wrong.
Highlights with 4.0:
- USB support (by Hans Petter Selasky)
- Asynchronous I/O
- Guest additions got startscripts and a integration into the desktop
environments
- www/phpvirtualbox updated to 4.0-3

Rebuilding world and kernel, now, just to be sure I'm following the
directions: I csup /usr/src and /usr/ports hourly
I'm completely new to Virtual Box, so I could be tripping over something
silly.
