virtualbox is not part of fedora
and vmware is running great after some changes of version.checks
but vmware is also not part of fedora
better breaking some non-distribution-stuff than as happened with
F14 that current intel machiens with sandy-bridge was not supportted
and forced eople with new hardware way too early to F15/systemd
This is a non-argument: kernels 2.6.40.x/3.x broke dual head/xrandr[1]
and WLAN[1] for me (on Intel hardware, FWIW).
