Un peu moins d'un mois après la sortie de la version majeure de VirtualBox, Sun nous propose aujourd'hui la 1ère mise à jour mineure de la version 2.2.
Cette mise à jour est destinée à corriger les couacs rencontrés lors de l'installation de la 2.2 notamment les cartes réseau non détectées, le DHCP non reconnu dans les systèmes virtualisés Windows et l'ajout du support préliminaire de Mac OS X Snow Leopard pour nos chers amis adorateurs de la Pomme (en système hôte bien entendu).

Le reste des corrections est listé ci-dessous grâce au changelog :
