Trying to compile with virtualbox 7.1.2 source. Just not able yet? 7.0.x working fine.

Yes, you are correct that the patch set is currently created against VirtualBox 7.0. We did not look into 7.1 yet.

Thanks @parthy - all good with vbox-kvm and 7.0.x but would be cool at some point.

vbox 7.1.x is very progressing in wayland support . Thank for the effort

Feeling like this is a dead-end kind of thing. Had potential and performance was great on the initial release.

We still maintain this project, it's just not a number one priority for us right now.

Thanks!

We have release a new patch series with 7.1.4 support
