I find this behavior odd. If I install Linux on a laptop or desktop Linux's config is what matters. And that is what I was expecting from VirtualBox. VirtualBox does things that actually interfere. I'm sure it has all these features for a reason. I was expecting to Install Linux and be on with my life. I might have spent 20 hours on this project. And I expect to spend more time on it. Hopefully I will be done with it by tonight. I want to try another flavor of Linux on my desktop (another old laptop), probably Mint... I know it is also Debian... any suggestions on a distro to try for my desktop for testing VirtualBox only? Id another distro works than it might be something within Kubuntu.
