VirtualBox 4.3 Beta 3 Fixes 3D, Modern Kernels

Written by Michael Larabel in Virtualization on 20 September 2013 at 08:15 PM EDT. 2 Comments

The third beta release of the upcoming VirtualBox 4.3 major update is now available.

VirtualBox 4.3 has brought interesting changes for the Oracle virtualization software but now being later into its development cycle, the changes are less exciting.

VirtualBox 4.3 Beta 3 implements thread-context hooks for Linux/Solaris hosts, GUI changes, 3D support fixes for Windows 8.1, a Linux 3.11 kernel shared folders fix, and Linux 3.12 kernel fixes.

More details on the VirtualBox 4.3 Beta 3 changes can be found via the VirtualBox.org Forums.
