+You'll need to add the following lines to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
+
+ # Start vboxadd
+ if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxadd ]; then
+ /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxadd start
+ fi
+
+ # Start vboxadd-service
+ if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxadd-service ]; then
+ /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxadd-service start
+ fi
+
+This will load the support kernel module and will setup the network
+configuration for VirtualBox.
+
+You should then add the following to /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown:
+
+ # Stop vboxadd
+ if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxadd ]; then
+ /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxadd stop
+ fi
+
+ # Stop vboxadd-service
+ if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxadd-service ]; then
+ /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxadd-service stop
+ fi
+
+You might want to add "/usr/bin/VBoxClient"
+to your xinitrc file if you use a desktop environment that doesn't
+respect /etc/xdg/autostart or /usr/share/autostart
+
+To use the vboxvideo xorg driver, you have to create an xorg.conf
+and specifiy to use that driver in there. Xorg will NOT pick that
+driver by default.
