    With VirtualBox they've made it super easy to add adapters to virtual machines and connect them to your real network or a virtual one. It's all nicely documented too.

    lol, considering subj is about guest drivers, maybe missing kvm on windows got them to not change their mind?

    My work on the VirtualBox *guest* drivers is purely to give Fedora (and Linux in general) a better OOTB experience when installed as a VirtualBox guest. The reason for this is that many people first dip their toe into the waters of running Fedora using a VM and VirtualBox is a popular choice for doing this. This really is no different from how we support running as a guest under e.g. HyperV.

    For running a vm under Linux you should absolutely use KMS + libvirt, through e.g. boxes or virt-manager.

    And sorry I've no plans to work on VirGL or some-such for VirtualBox.

    Does VirtualBox itself support utilizing host's OGL/ES?

    Now they just have the much harder task of getting Vbox video driver to the same quality and GL/ES API exposure of SVGA II and Virglrenderer.
