Hi!
I'm a new UBUNTU user and i'm loving it.
There's only one program that i left behind and I wanna use and due to that I need virtualization.
I've installed VirtualBox and i've been having some problems but i'm pretty sure i can figure them out by myself, except for one.

I use a PPPoe (password authorized) connection to the internet setted to bridge mode. I play Street Fighter online through the GGPO program (http://ggpo.net/blog/) and for that i need a BRIDGE connection or use NAT or DMZ, which i didnt get to learn exactly, so i set my connection to bridge and just started to play.

Is there a way for me to run ggpo and play it inside VirtualBox? For that i need a direct connection to the internet inside the Guest OS and that connection must reach GGPO ports, is it possible?

Thanks in advance for those who know how to solve my problem and are willing to give me a helping hand. >D

I just set up a v box install of xp on 8.04 for my game with the v box ose packages. It was a bit of a pain, had to un install and reinstall the vbox packages a few times, but once it was installed it was a piece of cake to set up the environment.

And there was a vbox ethernet connection which popped up automatically in my networking after
