i5 2500, Intel graphics, wired Internet connection, 64-bit MGA8 Plasma system. I don't use dkms, preferring to rely on our kmods instead. Packages installed cleanly. Extension pack downloaded manually and updated using the Vbox gui without issues, as usual. Ran a Windows XP guest that hadn't been used in months, which scolded me for not keeping my anti-malware up to date. Anti-malware updated and new guest additions downloaded and inserted without incident. Rebooted to a desktop that was working as well as XP ever works. Ran a Mageia 8 Plasma guest that also had not been run in a while, updated it, then used qarepo to update to the guest additions in Comment 0. Rebooted, because the guest kernel had been updated, to a working desktop. Looks good on this install. This is a test install on this hardware, with fewer guests than on my production install. Next step is to update vbox on that production install.
