I got all excited about the VirtualBox 3.0 release from Sun and upgraded to it on my Windows XP Pro and Ubuntu/amd64 boxes. Now my guests (Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSolaris) would simply freeze after about five minutes.

I haven't investigated the issue further except that I have seen posts on the VirtualBox forum by people who are experiencing the same problem as I did.

So don't upgrade VirtualBox to 3.0 yet unless you want to try your luck or to help resolve the issue. Of course if you know a way around this problem and would like to share it I'd appreciate it very much.
