broken network in opensolaris guest on linux host -> fixed in SVN/1.5.2

[karsten]

this concerns the following setup:

• host: ubuntu feisty + virtualbox 1.4.0
  
• guest: solaris express b64a-x86
  
• network configuration: bridged
  

running a sniffer on the tap device (host system) shows that arp requests are send and arp replies are received. a sniffer in the guest system only sees the requests but no repiles (i.e. no incomming traffic). a other guest system bridged with the same tap device runs well, so the bridge is perhaps running well.

Fixed in SVN.

i installed the svn version today, but the problem still exists

[Sander van Leeuwen]

Should be fixed now.

Should be fixed now.

That should is not good enough. Just crashed a VM.

Host: Intel Core 2 Quad CPU, Windows XP 32-bit, VirtualBox 1.5.2.

Guest: Solaris 10 (2005 release).

Tested with both VT and non-VT. While the crash looks different, it's still a crash. (Guru meditation).

I give you log of the non-VT version of crash.

Solaris 10 VM-2007-10-18-22-19-55.log - non-VT version of crash.
