- Version bump to 6.1.32 (released January 18 2022 by Oracle)
  This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:
  Fix for CVE-2022-21394 (boo#1194924)
  VMM: Changed the guest RAM management when using Hyper-V to be more compatible with HVCI (bug #20627 and #20694)
  VMM: Workaround for OS/2 guest unstability on newer AMD CPUs due to a missing TLB flush in OS/2 (bug #20625)
  GUI: Fixed keyboard focus loss in rare circumstances when using the mini toolbar in fullscreen mode
  Audio: Fixed accidental creation of empty debug log file when the OSS audio backend was configured
  E1000: Fix link status reporting for certain Linux kernels (some Oracle Linux ones, probably more)
  Unattended installation: Fixed regression introduced in 6.1.28, causing partitioning failure for Windows XP to 10 (bug #20769)
  Linux host: Fix access to some USB devices, device class was not correctly handled (bug #20721)
  Guest: Fixed wrong mouse position if guest is in text mode
  Guest Control: Fixed folders copying from host to guest and from guest to host
  Guest Control: Fixes for UNICODE handling
  Shared Clipboard: Improved HTML content exchange between X11 and Windows guests and hosts
  OS/2 Additions: Fixed some issues with extended attributes in the shared folders (bug #19453)
  File "vboxclient-clipboard.service" was removed while the shared clipboard problem with Wayland is further investigated.

- Add libnotify-tools to build requirements for virtualbox-guest-x11  (boo#1194128)
  Add service to start shared clipboard in Wayland sessions (boo#1194126). File "vboxclient-clipboard.service"
  is added. Thanks to Andrei Borzenkov for providing this file.

- Tumbleweed no longer assigns the group "users" to a user, which breaks TW guests under VirtualBox.
  This is fixed by adding 'TAG+="uaccess"' to the udev rule that creates /dev/vboxuser. Thanks to Andrei Borzenkov
  for help with this problem. This fixes boo#1194065.

thank you from a TW user. I was not able to switch the image over toe KVM so this is perfect. Can't get it to run unless I change to USB1 (did add the extension pack) but for now that is fine.

so thanks again for this work around

Thanks for the kind words. Mind sharing the error details?

It is important to use https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-6.1.97-140056.vbox-extpack which was rebuild early this week after raising this issue.

I had the 140023, though that was the last one. yours works fine.

now for a new stab to get it into KVM, but going on holiday tomorrow so will have to wait 3 weeks :) I think its a driver issue between the running win10 on VB and the one on KVM, since I can let windows do a full repair/reinstall but of course you lose everything.

thank you again for this.

BTW; I've synced Larry's tree with VB 6.1.13 now. Expect some downgrade activities on update.

Awaits testing..
