| 4 | This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added: |
| 5 | * VMM: reduced IO-APIC overhead for 32 bits Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 guests; requires 64 bits support (VT-x only; bug #4392) |
| 6 | * VMM: fixed double timer interrupt delivery on old Linux kernels using IO-APIC (caused guest time to run at double speed; bug #3135) |
| 7 | * VMM: reinitialize VT-x and AMD-V after host suspend or hibernate; some BIOSes forget this (Windows hosts only; bug #5421) |
| 8 | * VMM: fix loading of saved state when RAM preallocation is enabled |
| 9 | * BIOS: ignore unknown shutdown codes instead of causing a guru meditation (bug #5389) |
| 10 | * GUI: never start a VM on a single click into the selector window (bug #2676) |
| 11 | * Serial: reduce the probability of lost bytes if the host end is connected to a raw file |
| 12 | * VMDK: fix handling of split image variants and fix a 3.0.10 regression (bug #5355) |
| 13 | * VRDP: fixed occasional VRDP server crash |
| 14 | * Network: even if the virtual network cable was disconnected, some guests were able to send / receive packets (E1000; bug #5366) |
| 15 | * Network: even if the virtual network cable was disconnected, the PCNet card received some spurious packets which might confuse the guest (bug #4496) |
| 16 | * Shared folders: fixed changing case of file names (bug #2520) |
| 17 | * Windows Additions: fix crash in seamless mode (contributed by Huihong Luo) |
| 18 | * Linux Additions: fix writing to files opened in ''O_APPEND mode'' (bug #3805) |
