I have been using VirtualBox to run a Ubuntu guest for over a year
now. Works very well, although I have not tried to connect neo
directly to this instance. I ssh to another laptop running ubuntu
natively to which I connect the FR.

 This is a great setup - have you added info to the wiki on where one can
 download this image?

Thanks.  No, I haven't - it's really not downloadable yet.  I wanted to get
it cleaned up and incorporate all useful (but lightweight magabyte-wise)
tools first.
