Where can I download VirtualBox?

Asked by c4man

Am new to this Linux OS (Ubuntu 9.04) and will install but I also want to use a VM machine on the Ubuntu 9.04 host. Where can I download one that works with this OS - need one that sees my hosts USB ports?

Hi,

USB support is a closed-source feature in Virtualbox.

You can install Virtualbox for Ubuntu here:

http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads

Virtualbox is an alternative virtual machine.

See here for more info about Virtualbox:

Regards,

Mark
