Serial Port Error during Guest Shutdown
| Reported by: | Darrell Bellerive | Owned by: | |

| Component: | uart | Version: | VirtualBox 1.5.6 |

Description
The following error message is received during shutdown of the guest operating system: "Ioctl failed for serial host device '/dev/ttyS0'". It may also show /dev/ttyS1 depending on the host port in use. Additionally the guest shutdown then becomes very slow, and in most cases ends in an aborted state.
This problem has been experienced with Windows XP and 2000 guest operating systems on Linux hosts.

Problem appears to have been corrected in VB 2.0.0 on Ubuntu 8.04 host and Windows XP Home guest.
Problem also occurs with VB 1.62 on Ubuntu 8.04 host and Windows XP Home guest.
