Description water 2013-01-22 11:25:14 UTC
I use gentoo in amd64 arch, kernel 3.6.11.
app-emulation/virtualbox-bin-4.2.6 can not use Bridged Adapter in network config of Virtual Machine .
I do NOT choose CONFIG_BRIDGE in kenel config and install net-misc/bridge-utils-1.5.



Reproducible: Always

Does the same happen with the non-bin version of virtualbox?

Do you get some error when trying to enable a bridged network adapter? Or is it not available in the network adapter setup?
