- Change default display type for openSUSE virtual machines. The default type
has been VMSVGA; however, this display type fails to utilize driver vboxvideo.
thus the display size is fixed. This problem is under investigation, but
until a fix is found, the default is changed to VBoxVGA with file
"add change_default_display.patch".
- Makefile in the kernel-host-source package has a typo bug fixed (boo#1168910)
and a large number of warnings are fixed.

Virtualization core: fixed performance issue observed with Windows XP guests on AMD hosts (6.0.0 regression; bug #19152)
Virtualization core: consistent IBRS/IBPB CPUID feature reporting, avoids crash of NetBSD 9.0 RC1 installer (bug #19146)

Audio: fixed audio input handling when VRDE is enabled
Audio: fixed crash in the HDA emulation when using multi-speaker configurations
Storage: fixed use of encrypted disks with snapshots involved (6.1.0 regression; bug #19160)

Linux host: Support Linux 5.5 (guest additions not yet)
Windows guest: accelerate 2D video decoding (scaling and color space conversion) if the VM is configured to use VBoxSVGA with 3D enabled
Windows guest: fix guest additions installer to upgrade the mouse filter driver reliably
Windows guest: when uninstalling older Guest Additions with old 3D support enabled try restoring original Direct3D files
Linux guest: improve resize and multi-monitor handling for VMs using VMSVGA (known remaining issue: do not disable a monitor "in the middle", causes confusion)
- Version update to 6.1.0 (released December 10 2019 by Oracle)
- Fixes bsc#1132102.
- Removed file "set_graphics_type.patch" as the problem is fixed upstream.
This is a major update. The following major new features were added:
- Implemented support for importing a virtual machine from Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
- Extended support for exporting a virtual machine to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, allowing the creation
of multiple virtual machines without re-uploading. Also added option to export a VM to the cloud using the more efficient
