This update for virtualbox fixes the following issues:
- Update from version 5.0.22 to 5.0.24
This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:
+ VMM: Reverted to the old I/O-APIC code for now to fix certain regressions with 5.0.22.
This means that the networking performance with certain guests will drop to the 5.0.20 level.
One workaround is to disable GRO for Linux guests.
+ Main: When taking a screenshot, don't save garbage for blanked screens.
+ NAT: Correctly parse resolv.conf file with multiple separators. (5.0.22 regression)
+ Storage: Fixed a possible corruption of stream optimized VMDK images from VMware when opened
in read/write mode for the first time.
+ Audio: Imlemented dynamic re-attaching of input/output devices on Mac OS X hosts.
+ ACPI: Notify the guest when the battery / AC state changes instead of relying on guest polling.
+ Linux hosts: Fixed VERR_VMM_SET_JMP_ABORTED_RESUME Guru Meditations on hosts with Linux 4.6 or later.
