Sorry for the late response. I was away (from technology) for 2 days. I built vbox through /usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose-devel/kmod-devel port, dowloaded from https://svn.bluelife.at/index.cgi/blueports/log/emulators revision 849 with the following specs: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- - Update to 3.2.1r29799 - Add patch patch-src-VBox-Devices-Storage-DrvHostDVD.cpp to implement locking/unlocking of host DVD drive [1] - Add patch patch-src-VBox-Devices-PC-vbox.dsl to fix build on current with ACPICA 20100428. [2] - Remove patch patch-src-VBox-Additions-freebsd-Makefile.kmk. Fixed upstream: http://www.virtualbox.org/changeset/29768 - Remove patch patch-src-VBox-Additions-common-VBoxService- VBoxServiceVMInfo.cpp. Fixed upstream: http://www.virtualbox.org/changeset/29764 - Sync patch patch-src-VBox-Additions-common-VBoxService-VBoxService.cpp with upstream: http://www.virtualbox.org/changeset/29761 PR: ports/146752 [1] Submitted by: mtm@ [1], jkim@ [2] Reported by: Michael Butler <imb AT protected-networks.net> [2] Reminded by: Brandon Gooch <jamesbrandongooch AT gmail.com> [2] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Build options: [X] QT4 Build with QT4 Frontend [ ] DEBUG Build with debugging symbols [X] GUESTADDITIONS Build with Guest Additions [X] DBUS Build with D-Bus and HAL support [ ] PULSEAUDIO Build with PulseAudio [X] X11 Build with X11 support [X] VDE Build with VDE support [X] VNC Build with VNC support [X] NLS Native language support LocalConfig.kmk after a make patch: VBOX_PATH_APP_PRIVATE_ARCH = /usr/local/lib/virtualbox VBOX_PATH_SHARED_LIBS = /usr/local/lib/virtualbox VBOX_WITH_RUNPATH = /usr/local/lib/virtualbox VBOX_PATH_APP_PRIVATE = /usr/local/share/virtualbox-ose VBOX_PATH_APP_DOCS = /usr/local/share/doc/virtualbox-ose VBOX_WITH_INSTALLER = 1 VBOX_WITH_VBOXDRV = VBOX_WITH_NETFLT = 1 VBOX_WITH_NETADP = VBOX_WITH_TESTCASES= SDK_VBOX_LIBPNG_INCS = /usr/local/include/libpng SDK_VBOX_LIBPNG_LIBS = png VBOX_WITH_ADDITIONS= VBOX_WITH_X11_ADDITIONS= VBOX_WITH_VNC = 1 The problem is NOT dependent (I guess) on the version of virtualbox (3.1.6 or 3.2.0 BETA/BETA1/BETA2/BETA3,3.2.0 stable, 3.2.1r29799 tested), but on which version of VBoxGuestAdditions.iso I use to install guest additions on the windows guest. ANY version of VBoxGuestAdditions_3.2.0_BETA1.iso (or prior), combined with ANY of the above virtualbox versions, the problem doesn't happen. It seems to me that something was changed inside the guest additions iso image from VBoxGuestAdditions_3.2.0_BETA1.iso to VBoxGuestAdditions_3.2.0_BETA2 .iso and newer, that caused this to happen. -- Mario Lobo http://www.mallavoodoo.com.br FreeBSD since 2.2.8 [not Pro-Audio....
