Virtual-Box for F12 link

[SlowJet]

I found f12 rpm here. http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/3.0.6/
It may be the osx version.
The additions need to compile and drmmodule kills the kms, mouse, kdb
(unless you know they work on your hardware?)

So rin ad you own risk, works ok for F11 and other except it is very slow for F12.
Default kbd work but mouse may be blocked by selinux. setenforce=0 and the mouse can be grabbed after logon screen.

Doing large updates with yum-presto will take a log time, but it works.

Running F11 KDE with additions from the 3.08 iso.
With setenforcing=0 on boot and
full screen, most of the mouse and kbd, just need to wait until fully booted.
Display always needs resizing via system utils, Display; it resized automatically but has the apply button grayed out. So it does not remeber the next boot.
BTW: the 30.8-67 f11 kernel-devel has issues with digest and cpio unpacking.

I think I can get the two F12's resurrected now. But it is very tedious due to the boot speed.

F12 host is running great on booth PC's.
Wish I had the 32-rc3 kernel for btrfs bits.
At least it would be fun again.

[SlowJet]

lol, thanks but no.
I am very anti-whirl cpu cycle grabbing glitz at this time.
But it would make Miley a pretty bra.
