- Update to 3.1
- Changed the RemoteBox logo
- Various minor GUI tweaks
- Added button to save the message log to a text file. Might be
useful for debugging purposes.
- Fixed: Regression introduced in 3.0 caused Connection Profiles
dialog to essentially stop working correctly, potentially
losing existing profiles in the process.
- Fixed: Regression introduced in 3.0 meant that NAT rules were
not shown for IPv4 and IPv6 networks
- Fixed column sorting in the VMM (Virtual Media Manager)
- Fixed various list selection bugs. The get_selected() method
under GTK3 returns both the model and the iterator, not just
the iterator as with GTK2
- RemoteBox is no longer bundled with a PDF manual. Documentation
is now exclusively maintained on the RemoteBox web site.

- RemoteBox has been ported to Gtk3.
Review the requirements before updating to ensure your
operating system is compatible.
- Changes from 2.8

to be the last release of RemoteBox based on Gtk2 as RemoteBox is
being ported to Gtk3.
- Removed hearbeat option as it's no longer required

RemoteBox-2.7_fix-env-script-interpreter.patch.
- Update to 2.7 version
- RemoteBox now requires VirtualBox 6.1.x
- VirtualBox now requires hardware virtualization and no longer
supports software virtualization. Removed associated options
from RemoteBox.

RDP connection. This option is largely unsupported by RDP
clients and not particularly useful.
- Added support for the Virtio-SCSI controller
- Added support for the AMD PCNet-ISA/NE2100 network card
- Added support for nested hardware virtualization (VT-x/AMD-V)
for supported processors
- Added toolbar buttons in the VMM to create new hard disk
images, new floppy disk images (from 360K to 2.88MB) and move
media to new locations

floppy disk image and automatically attaching it

appliance
- Added options to specify MAC address policy and include ISO
files when exporting an appliance
- Added options to Keep disk UUIDs, specify MAC policy and keep
disk names when cloning a guest
- Added OS icon for Windows 2019 64bit
- Rewrote the copy and disk conversion code, should be cleaner
and faster
- Creating a new guest, now uses the ApplyDefaults API call which
was broken in previous versions of VirtualBox. This allows
a lot of code cleanups and faster guest creation
- Fixed incorrect URL on About window
- Various code cleanups
- Remove obsolete Groups tag (fate#326485)
- Update to 2.6 version
- Removed old version of env-script-interpreter.patch

share's Permanent Status, when editing the shared folder.
- Various code cleanups
- Update to 2.5 version
- RemoteBox now only pops up a VirtualBox Extensions warning

message log as there are no VirtualBox extensions.
- Added support for setting the Audio driver of a guest when
using a FreeBSD server
- Improved the code which automatically adds the guest addition
ISO to the VMM on login which should prevent an error if the
server does not provide a guest additions ISO
- Added support for VNC. If your server has the VNC extension
pack installed, you can use VNC to connect to the guest
displays instead of RDP. You must install a VNC client on your
RemoteBox machine and configured it as appropriate in your
preferences. TigerVNC is the default client
- The guest display icon now shows whether the server expects
a VNC or RDP connection when opening the display of guests.

-Added option to enable/disable audio output from a guest
-Added option to enable/disable audio input to a guest
-Added option to record audio from the guest when capturing a video
-Added support for exporting appliances to Oracle Public Cloud
Format 1.0
-Added ability to select a connection profile to use for
automatically logging in when starting up RemoteBox.

where a host and guest's keyboard status may become out of sync.
-New guests now automatically have their audio output enabled
-Fixed: You now can't set video RAM to zero, even though VirtualBox
reports this as a valid minimum, the guest won't start.
- env-script-interpreter.patch fix pearl interpreter script
-Updtae to 2.3 version
-Update to 2.2 version
-Update to 2.1 version
-Updated to 2.0 version
- Manually symlink the duplicate icon between /usr/share/icons and
/usr/share/RemoteBox. This allows us, contrary to the use of
fdupes, to define that we want the real file in /usr/share/icons,
which is a requirement for Application containerisation (the icon
needs to be extractable from a defined location for host system
integration).
- Install upstream provided appdata.xml file.
-Fixed SLE_11_SP3 build
-Updated to 1.9 version
- added RPM group tag matching other Virtualization packages
