Summary: User Guide / 1.4.3. Virtual Machines - VirtualBox not mentioned Product: WineHQ.org Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: www-unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: jari.aalto@cante.net
User Guide / 1.4.3. Virtual Machines
Paragraph:
There are several different virtual machine offerings out there, and some are also able to emulate x86 hardware on different platforms. The open source Bochs and QEMU can run both Windows and ReactOS virtually. Other, commercial virtual machine offerings include VMware and Microsoft's VirtualPC.
SUGGESTION:
- Remove Bochs, not longer developed - Add virtual box (based on QEMU)

--- Comment #1 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2008-04-03 11:25:38 --- A LOT of the documentation is out of date. I've been looking at rewriting some of it, but someone else proposed moving to XML instead SGML, see bug 12217. If so, we should do both of these at once. No one's really started doing it though...

--- Comment #2 from Lei Zhang thestig@google.com 2008-04-03 12:42:22 --- Rather than filing a bug, why not contribute to Wine by updating the documentation?
Please submit a patch for this to wine-patches. The Wine documentation lives in CVS still:

FYI, the latest version of Bochs was release in December 2007, I wouldn't call that "not longer developed".
