Never had an issue with virtualbox on debian  Maybe you're just doing it wrong. I've built os/2 warp and gentoo in it with zero issues. I had more trouble with qemu-nbd than virtualbox, in fact.

the only real problem with virtualbox is that it's impossible to get the stench of Oracle out of it

what's the correct opinion to have on Vagrant? it's basically a command line tool for booting up VMs so you would still be using virtualbox or some other platform, but i have found it to be much more convenient (for setup-teardown of throwaway environments) than messing with virtualbox on its own

I ported some software to webOS, nothing too amazing. All the different VMs are for the different emulators from LG for different panel sizes, particularly the ultra-wide varieties of 58:9, etc.
