message: <<EOM

VirtualBox Guest Additions are installed.
|
|
|
|
To enable and start the required services:
|
|
|
|
# sysrc vboxguest_enable="YES"
|
|
# sysrc vboxservice_enable="YES"
|
|
|
|
To start the services, restart the system.
|
|
|
|
In some situations, a panic will occur when the kernel module loads.
|
|
Having no more than one virtual CPU might mitigate the issue.
|
|
|
|
For features such as window scaling and clipboard sharing, membership of
|
|
the wheel group is required. With username "jerry" as an example:
|
|
|
|
# pw groupmod wheel -m jerry
|
|
|
|
The settings dialogue for FreeBSD guests encourages use of the VMSVGA
|
|
graphics controller. Whilst this might suit installations of FreeBSD
|
|
without a desktop environment (a common use case), it is not appropriate
|
|
where Guest Additions are installed.
|
|
|
|
Where Guest Additions are installed:
|
|
|
|
1. prefer VBoxSVGA
|
|
|
|
2. do not enable 3D acceleration (doing so will invisibly
|
|
lose the preference for VBoxSVGA)
|
|
|
|
You may ignore the yellow alert that encourages use of VMSVGA.
