MGA8 64 XFCE Core I5, 6GO RAM.

Update with QA repo and rpms:

dkms-virtualbox                7.0.4        1.mga8        x86_64  
virtualbox                     7.0.4        1.mga8        x86_64

All my VMs (Debian and Mageia) work properly, creating a new VM is no problem.
Network connection by bridge Ok
I don't have any specific use of the VB and I can't give more feedback about the further use.

Comment 5 Morgan Leijström 2022-11-29 01:18:14 CET
mga8-64 OK for me, running on backport kernel desktop 6.0.9 as host and also as Mageia 8 guest.

Tested on my usual workstation where I also test kernel updates and backports.

Mainboard: Sabertooth P67, CPU: i7-3770, RAM 16G, GM107 [GeForce GTX 750] using nvidia-current; GeForce 635 series and later, 4k display.


Tests OK as VirtualBox Host: all three guests running concurrently
Hardware:  My venerable workstation "svarten": Mainboard: Sabertooth P67, CPU: i7-3770, RAM 16G, GM107 [GeForce GTX 750] using nvidia-current; GeForce 635 series and later, 4k display.  Disk&Filesystem: SSD with /boot/EFI and ext4 /boot, LUKS{LVM {swap, ext4 /home & / } and a spinner at /mnt/spinner


BOINC detects CUDA and OpenCL. But no suitable work unit to try.

Tested on host:  Plasma desktop; using Thunderbird, LibreOffice, Ktorrent, Nextcloud client, Syncthing, Firefox ESR (video ok) java program FriBOK, Flatpak program Firefox and KiCad... 


Tests OK as VirtualBox Host, all three guests running concurrently:

Guest 1: my usual MSW7pro-64, 
On first boot to desktop it popped up a message new guest additions are needed. A guest window frame dropdown menu provided update, it worked automatically, and i then rebooted guest. tests OK: dynamic guest window resizing, bidirectional clipboard, host shared folders both bidirectional and write protection checked, USB2  memory stick read&write (using upstream extension pack), video playing OK in Firefox, drag file from host Dolphin to guest Explorer. 

Guest 2a and 2b (two instances): BOINC LHC@home ATLAS simulation virtual machine 3CPU.

Guest 3: Mageia 8 -64, Xfce per below

---

mga8-64 Xfce, running as the VirtualBox guest 3 above, kernel 6.0.9-desktop-1.mga8.  Updated guest additions, rebooted.  Firefox surfing and plays video. drakrpm to update. Plugged in USB flash stick in host, checked it in VritualBox guest window frame menu to share, the partitions icons popped up on xfce desktop, and I could read and put new files. Bidirectional shared clipboard. Dynamic desktop resizing.
