Please do NOT use this VirtualBox Beta release on production machines! A VirtualBox Beta release should be considered a bleeding-edge release meant for early evaluation and testing purposes.
You can download the binaries here: http://213.239.192.22/download/3.2.0_BETA1/ (don't worry about the IP address, this is a temporary Oracle server) Please do NOT open bug reports at http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Bugtracker but use our 'VirtualBox Beta Feedback' forum at http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewforum.php?f=15 to report any problems with the Beta. Version 3.2.0 will be a major update. The following major new features were added: * Following the acquisition of Sun Microsystems by Oracle Corporation, the product is now called Oracle VM VirtualBox and all references were changed without impacting compatibility. * Experimental support for Mac OS X guests * Memory ballooning to dynamically in- or decrease the amount of RAM used by a VM (64-bit hosts only) (see the manual for more information) * CPU hot-plugging for Linux (hot-add and hot-remove) and certain Windows guests (hot-add only) (see the manual for more information) * New Hypervisor features: with both VT-x/AMD-V on 64-bit hosts, using large pages can improve performance (see the manual for more information); also, on VT-x, unrestricted guest execution is now supported (if nested paging is enabled with VT-x, real mode and protected mode without paging code runs faster, which mainly speeds up guest OS booting) * Support for deleting snapshots while the VM is running * Support for multi-monitor guest setups in the GUI (see the manual for more information) * USB tablet/keyboard emulation for improved user experience if no Guest Additions are available * LsiLogic SAS controller emulation * RDP video acceleration * NAT engine configuration via API and VBoxManage * Guest Additions: added support for executing guest applications from the host system * OVF: enhanced OVF support with custom namespace to preserve settings that are not part of the base OVF standard Please see the forum for a complete list of all changes since version 3.1.6.
