[vbox-dev] Call for testing (Linux and Solaris Guest Additions)

A number of changes and fixes were made to the graphics components of 
the Linux and Solaris Guest Additions recently, particularly related to 
disappearing guest screens and switches to virtual terminals.  I would 
really appreciate any testing by anyone who uses these guests to make 
sure that I haven't introduced any regressions with the fixes.  If you 
would like to help please download a Guest Additions test build<1> (the 
changes may not all be in the other builds yet), install it, use it and 
let me know if any new problems have appeared.  I hope they will not, 
but I would rather know about it.

Thanks!

Michael
