My build order for VirtualBox using the SBo scripts would be as follows:
1) acpica
2) virtualbox-kernel
3) virtualbox
At this point I would test to make sure everything is working. If yes,
build and install virtualbox-extension-pack for other features. You don't
need the 'addon' packages, those
mouse/keyboard settings are part of the "Input Devices" Settings module.
So K Menu -> System Settings -> Input devices. There's a tab for mouse
settings on the left.

I had the opportunity to use the Slackware laptop today. There's a
missing feature. Where do I look for settings for the middle button on
the laptop? I'm used to being able to hold that button down and scroll
with the trackpoint. Is that a KDE setting or someplace else?

I read news from a number of websites. Sometimes there are videos. I got
a message telling me that I need flashplayer. Is the one at
http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/flashplayer-plugin/ the one
I should use? (pkg64, 14.2)

This is turning into general discussion - still I see the original
point of this email tread in a need to reuse existing VirtualBox
virtual machine image/installation.
So it makes little sense to try do anything but VirtualBox.
Often, the decision to use vBox was made decade or even longer ago.

Apple has no trouble accessing SMB shares. Apple supports doing everything over
SMB now, including TimeMachine. Note that FreeNAS doesn’t support this yet.
There is an open ticket for supporting it. Apple has (for several years now)
had AFP support as deprecated. Its recommended you move
