+virtualbox-ose (3.1.4-dfsg-2) unstable; urgency=low
+
+  virtualbox-ose no longer depends on QT4 to not force anyone to install QT4
+  even if the virtualbox-ose provided gui is not installed. However, QT4 is still
+  recommended because there is one little utility in virtualbox-ose that is
+  linked againbt QT4. This utility, VBoxTestOGL, is used to test for OpenGL
+  capabilities. So if you use OpenGL you might want to install QT4 nonetheless.
+  If you know your OpenGL capabilities you can of course also replace VBoxTestOGL
+  by /bin/true or /bin/false depending on your capabilities.

+virtualbox-ose (2.0.6-dfsg-1) experimental; urgency=low
+
+  The way Host Interface Networking works has been completely rewritten with
+  VirtualBox 2. The main difference is that the complex bridging configuration
+  is no longer necessary. With the new mechanism, to enable Host Interface
+  Networking, all you need to do is to open the Settings dialog of a virtual
+  machine, go to the “Network” page and select “Host Interface” in the drop down
+  list for the “Attached to” field. Finally, select the desired host interface
+  from the list at the bottom of the page, which contains the physical network
+  interfaces.

+      Guest utilities for operating systems not offering virtualbox-ose
+      packages have to be downloaded from the internet. The upstream provided

+    </para>
+	<itemizedlist>
+	  <listitem>

+	    You need a 64-bit processor with hardware virtualization support

+	  </listitem>
+	  <listitem>
+	  <para>
+	    You must run a 64-bit version of VirtualBox on that OS. This can
+	    then run both 32-bit and 64-bit VMs; a 32-bit VirtualBox can only run 32-bit
+	    VMs, regardless of the hardware.
+	  </para>
+	  </listitem>
+          <listitem>
+          <para>
+	    You must enable hardware virtualization; software virtualization is not supported
+	    for 64-bit VMs.
+	  </para>
+	  </listitem>
+	</itemizedlist>
+	<para>
+	  There is no specific setting to enable 64-bit support for a guest.
+	  However, you should enable the I/O APIC for virtual machines that you intend to
+	  use in 64-bit mode.

+      <para>
+	VirtualBox can use three alternative mechanisms to provide
+	Ethernet networking to its virtual machines:b
+      </para>
+      <section>
+	<title>NAT</title>
+	<para>
+	  This is the easiest to use type of setup: The virtual
+	  ethernet interface is connected to a virtual NAT router
+	  including a DHCP server that is implemented within
+	  the VirtualBox host software.
+	</para>
+	<para>
+	  This is the default mode. It usually does not require
+	  any extra configuration on the host.
+	</para>
+      </section>
+      <section>
+	<title>Internal network</title>
+	<para>
+	  In this mode, there is only connectivity within an
+	  emulated network shared between two or more virtual
+	  machines running in the same VirtualBox instance.
+	</para>
+      </section>
+      <section>
+	<title>Host interface</title>
+	<para>
+	  The virtual ethernet interface is connected to a
+	  real device on the host filtering out its traffic.
+	</para>

+  <section>
+    <title>Incompatibilities</title>
+    <para>
+      When upgrading from a pre 2.0.0 version to virtualbox might complaing
+      about a missing format attribute in the HardDisk tag of
+      <filename>~/.VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml</filename>. Manually adding
+      'format="vdi"' solves this.
+    </para>
+    <para>
+      A bug appeared in kernel 2.6.29 RC5 that broke virtualbox-ose. The fix
+      was added in 2.6.29.1. If you happen to use 2.6.29 and epxerience
+      problems starting your VMs please upgrade. In Debian all
+      linux-image-2.6.29 versions starting with Debian version 2.6.29-2 are
+      fine.
