VirtualBox – Android Remote Management
I wonder if Android can use animated backgrounds. If they can I will work on the following image. I’ll reduce its size and tweak it for the relatively small screen of a smartphone. If the phone cannot use an animated background I will just use the image without the animation. Ultimately I made the image in hopes that it will lead to an application, which I have begun tinkering with.
Theoretically the app will use ssh to connect to a server. The app will need to configure either password or RSA authentication. It will then use shell commands to retrieve the available virtual machines in a particular users home directory. At first it would provide the ability to start, pause, and stop them individually. Then additional functions can be added.

Give the experimental feature a try, and expect much progress in future updates. I have an [...]

Blackbook now is confirmed to work on the Motorola Droid Milestone. This is of great importance because it extends its reach tremendously.

Ok, I see what people mean about Android apps being extremely slow compared to iPhone apps. I’ve had about 315 downloads of the free version, and a whopping 5 downloads of the paid version. This by all means is exciting for the first week of distribution, but if thinks don’t pick up to some degree [...]

Added to VirtualBox Pro is status checking. When you login to the host your virtual machines are displayed with on/off information. In the onCreate a thread is launched that scans the server for machine status; it then updates the UI thread accordingly. I’ve also added header icons to replace the default one, and a new [...]

I use an Ubuntu Karmic desktop environment for my host. I use VirtualBox with Debian Lenny for virtual machines. Most of the time virtual machines work fine with multiple processors enabled in VirtualBox, but Debian Lenny does have some instability forcing the VirtualBox configuration to use 1 processor to maintain stability. Maybe changing the kernel, [...]
