Hi virtualbox users!

This is again a call for testers to get some feedback before we commit
VirtualBox 4.2 to the portstree. If you already run VirtualBox 4.2.0 you
should definitely update to 4.2.4 because they fixed quite a few serious
bugs upstream.

Our plan is still to commit 4.2 to the portstree as soon as FreeBSD 9.1
is out the door.

If you are interested in helping with virtualbox maintenance and
development or have noticed a bug you can easily find us on IRC.


Please update devel/kBuild-devel before updating any of the virtualbox
ports and ensure that your Kernel sources match your running kernel
before building the virtualbox-ose-kmod port.

libvncserver installed

[root@VBOX ~]pkg_info |grep vnc
libvncserver-0.9.9_2 Provide an easy API to write one's own vnc server
