[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#494916: virtualbox-ose: virtualbox freezes upon resume from suspend, hibernate

[Tim Richardson]

Package: virtualbox-ose
Version: 1.6.2-dfsg-3
Severity: important

When I resume from suspend, my windows virtual machine is frozen.
I am currently rebooting Debian to get virtualbox working again, 
although I am sure that I can find a smarter way. 

To reproduce the problem:
1. start a Windows XP virtual machine
2. suspend the machine (mine is a toshiba laptop)
3. restore

The virtual machine is frozen.

Reproducible every time: no, but usually. 

I have a wireless connection (so there is a delay in restoring network 
connectivity after resuming).
