Android-x86 on Virtualbox tips:
-------------------------------

    The way to understand complex things:

    -- default
    -- shorthand aka what is behind stenography
    -- incapsulation (function, module, class, interface)

Hot keys
--------

  Download ISO 2015 version from http://distrowatch.com/?newsid=08754

  host     -- right control key (virtualbox default)

  host + h -- Wakeup from sleep, long press "Power" switch.
  host + i -- Toggle mouse pointer behaviour (disable mouse integration)
  host + c -- Exit scaled mode


Tested APK packages:
--------------------

  ConnectBot v.1.8.1:

    https://github.com/connectbot/connectbot/releases

  SL4A text editor (20110221):

    https://code.google.com/p/android-scripting/downloads
          /detail?name=textedit-sl4a.apk


Tested commands (autocomplete TAB):
-----------------------------------

  pwd, mkdir, cd, ls, rm
  cat, ed, vi
  grep, find, less, head, tail
  tar, gzip, bzip2
  scp
  uname
  jobs, bg, fg, ^z, ^c
  ps, top, kill
  ping, ifconfig, nslookup
  busybox


Change screen resolution (Droid is unstable after)
--------------------------------------------------

  + Boot Android-x86 from CD to Live CD -- VESA mode, press TAB to edit
  + Remove "quiet", set vga=799
  + You should get an error message. Press ENTER to see a list of display options. Lets assume 34C, 844, 1152x864x32.
  + Shutdown the VM and VirtualBox.

    > VBoxManage setextradata "Droid-4.4r2" "CustomVideoMode1" "1152x864x32"

  + Attach Droid VHD to some Linux VM and edit menu.lst (in /grub, add vga=844)
  + Reboot your machine, it should now boot with the custom resolution you defined.
