Finally decided to go with virtualbox. the version available through synaptic (6.06) has some issues though. dependency issues. I tried fixing those, but it kept saying "kernel complete failed" and virtual office will not start. So followed another instruction set where i downloaded the dapper version from the virtualbox repository.. before dkpging this, i had to install the kernel source and then the virtualbox package and it all worked fine. -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
