[vbox-dev] Has anyone tried using the VirtualBox appliances?

Hi!

Has anyone tried using the VirtualBox appliances from
http://virtualbox.wordpress.com?

I am trying one of the DSL images with VirtualBox 2.0 and this is what I get:

VBoxManage registervm
/home/amit/Desktop/dsl-4.4.2-x86/Machines/dsl-4.4.2-x86/dsl-4.4.2-x86.xml
VirtualBox Command Line Management Interface Version 2.0.0
(C) 2005-2008 Sun Microsystems, Inc.
All rights reserved.

[!] FAILED calling virtualBox->OpenMachine(Bstr(argv[0]),
machine.asOutParam()) at line 3089!
[!] Primary RC  = NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) - Operation failed
[!] Full error info present: true , basic error info present: true
[!] Result Code = NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) - Operation failed
[!] Text        = Could not load the settings file
'/home/amit/Desktop/dsl-4.4.2-x86/Machines/dsl-4.4.2-x86/dsl-4.4.2-x86.xml'.
Element '{http://www.innotek.de/VirtualBox-settings}VirtualBox',
attribute 'version': The value '1.3-macosx' does not match the fixed
value constraint '1.3-linux'
[!] Component   = VirtualBox, Interface: IVirtualBox,
{557a07bc-e6ae-4520-a361-4a8493199137}
[!] Callee      = IVirtualBox, {557a07bc-e6ae-4520-a361-4a8493199137}

The key point here IMO is: " Element
'{http://www.innotek.de/VirtualBox-settings}VirtualBox', attribute
'version': The value '1.3-macosx' does not match the fixed value
constraint '1.3-linux'
"

Any solutions?
