Hi! Some good news on the additions front; I've finally integrate the Haiku additions into the VirtualBox tree after some cleanups and fixes.
The main vboxguest module and vboxdev driver works, and the mouse integration is also working (after fixing some C++ linkage issues with the instantiation function). I did not test vboxvideo yet since it was mentioned the performance would be pretty terrible. I'll test it later. VBoxControl & VBoxService errors out (probably some post 4.1 change which can be fixed easily). The rest needs testing. Over the next few weeks/months I intend to clean up the code further and get the rest working gradually as I find time. I will also work on getting some sort of automated packaging working as I find time. Thanks to Mike Smith, François Revol, Alexander Von Gluck and all the others who might have been involved in contributing the additions! Regards, Ram.
