#3407 fixed probable bug in real mode video BIOS => Fixed in SVN/3.1.4 Ninho
Description

Most probably a bug in the real mode video BIOS (int 10h).

Problem, as observed in plain MS-DOS - no ANSI.SYS or similar - running command.com or other plain text mode programs with screen scrolling :

Normally while scrolling the screen up by one line, character attributes from the bottom line (usually line 25) are reinjected to the new bottom line which is "scrolled in". After 25 (or whichever # lines on screen) lines have been scrolled, all displayed lines will have the same attributes.

However using DOS in virtualbox, the lines inserted at screen bottom invariably come with default grey on black attribute (07) !

I have not investigated code used by (in the example) command.com at instruction level, but since the 'right' behaviour I've been seing on all real machines (for almost 30 years!) and only virtualbox exhibits a difference, it has to be a bug in, most probably, the provided video BIOS.

#3408 fixed X server does not start w/Guest Additions on OpenSolaris guest w/snv_107 packages => fixed in 2.2.0 BETA1 Robert Krawitz
Description

With the Guest Additions installed, the X server does not start on an OpenSolaris client using snv_107 (development) packages. Worked with snv_106, and the server starts if the Guest Additions are removed. The message in Xorg.0.log indicates that the vboxvideo module does not load because of a version mismatch.

#3411 fixed AMD PCnet Ethernet Driver is missing Clemens Fuchslocher
Description

The UserManual.pdf of 2.1.4 states:

Windows Vista no longer ships a driver for the AMD PCnet Ethernet card that VirtualBox provides to the guest by default [...]. As a convenience, VirtualBox ships with a 32-bit driver for the AMD PCnet card, which comes with the Windows Guest Additions. [...] Then, start the Windows Hardware Wizard and direct it to the Guest Additions CD where a driver for the PCnet card can be found in the directory 32bit\Windows\3rdParty\AMD_PCnet.

But the directory 32bit\Windows\3rdParty\AMD_PCnet doesn't exist anymore in the iso image of the guest additions.

It was still there in 2.1.0 but disappeared in 2.1.2:

2.1.0

Installing the driver manually from http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/utilities/V4.51.zip works fine for me.
