Hi,

After update of emulators/virtualbox-ose to latest version (4.2.14) 
virtualbox GUI is not able to set memory correctly. In GUI the maximum of 
choosable memory is 0MB. I tried it without the old settings and machine dirs 
~/.VirtualBox, ~/VirtalBox VMs and got the same result.

I'm using FreeBSD 9.1 amd64 Release.

With VBoxManage however everything works fine:

$ VBoxManage createvm --name test --register
Virtual machine 'test' is created and registered.
UUID: 48382805-96e5-4954-899f-c05836a5ec6e
Settings file: '~/VirtualBox VMs/test/test.vbox'
$ VBoxManage modifyvm test --memory 1024
$

Nonetheless old vms seem to work - some linux machines (with updated guest
additions) seem to have more apic-timer and kernel panic problems than before,
but this occurs occassionally ... (haven't digged into it further)

Is anybody having similar problems?

Regards,
kaltheat
