[xubuntu-users] VBox no Internet connection Quantal amd64

[Ralf Mardorf]

Hi,

I used XP (guest) in VBox (open source) on Arch Linux amd64 (host) and
connected to the network by NAT. VBox on Arch Linux started with older
versions, but last version was newer, than Ubuntu's version is, so I
downgraded the guest additions.

There are links in Ubuntu's home to Arch's home for VBox and a shared
folder. Everything does work, excepted of the networking. I can't
connect to the Interne on Ubuntu. It worked without issues on Arch.

spinymouse at q:/lib/modules$ ls -la ~
lrwxrwxrwx  1 spinymouse  spinymouse      42 Dec  5 10:17 .VirtualBox -> /mnt/archlinux/home/spinymouse/.VirtualBox

Any hints are welcome.
