VirtualBox GTK interface in the works

[Bou]

Hiya,

If you're a bit like me and use VirtualBox but don't like QT apps on your Gnome Desktop, you'll like to hear that there's one person working on a GTK interface, and it's almost usable.

You can read about it here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-689864-postdays-0-postorder-asc-start-0.html

And here are some screenies:

Is it in the ubuntu repos ?

[Bou]

Nope, it hasn't been released yet and then it'll have to be packaged and uploaded.

I like it. I am waiting for it. VMware is too heavy on resources comapred to virtualbox

The guy just released a first version here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-5103802.html#5103802
