VirtualBox 5.0.26 (released 2016-07-18)

VirtualBox 5.0.26 (released 2016-07-18)

This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:

• VMM: fixed a bug in the task switching code (ticket #15571)
• GUI: allow to overwrite an existing file when saving a log file (bug #8034)
• GUI: fixed screenshot if the VM is started in separate mode
• Audio: improved recording from USB headsets and other sources which might need conversion of captured data
• Audio: fixed regression of not having any audio available on Solaris hosts
• VGA: fixed an occasional hang when running Windows guests with 3D enabled
• Storage: fixed a possible endless reconnect loop for the iSCSI backend if connecting to the target succeeds but further I/O requests cause a disconnect
• Storage: fixed a bug when resizing certain VDI images which resulted in using the whole disk on the host (bug #15582)
• EFI: fixed access to devices attached to SATA port 2 and higher (bug #15607)
• API: fixed video recording with VBoxHeadless (bug #15443)
• API: don't crash if there is no graphics controller configured (bug #15628)
• VBoxSVC: fixed several memory leaks when handling .dmg images
• Solaris hosts: fixed a crash on hosts with certain CPU configurations
• Windows hosts: properly fall back to NDIS5 on pre-Vista hosts on silent installations

VirtualBox 5.0.24 (released 2016-06-28)

This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:

• VMM: reverted to the old I/O-APIC code for now to fix certain regressions with 5.0.22 (bug #15529). This means that the networking performance with certain guests will drop to the 5.0.20 level (bug #15295). One workaround is to disable GRO for Linux guests.
• Main: when taking a screenshot, don't save garbage for blanked screens
• NAT: correctly parse resolv.conf file with multiple separators (5.0.22 regression)
• Storage: fixed a possible corruption of stream optimized VMDK images from VMware when opened in read/write mode for the first time
• Audio: imlemented dynamic re-attaching of input/output devices on Mac OS X hosts
• ACPI: notify the guest when the battery / AC state changes instead of relying on guest polling
• Linux hosts: fixed VERR_VMM_SET_JMP_ABORTED_RESUME Guru Meditations on hosts with Linux 4.6 or later (bug #15439)
• Solaris hosts: make the GUI work on Solaris 10 again (bug #15549)
