As it's not my machine I didn't want to have to do much to get it running. Funnily enough Feisty works fine. Now running Ubuntu Gusty (32-bit) on my PC. Seems much quicker than Feisty even with Compiz running, although that might be to do with the fact that I haven't got much on the drive. I noticed too that Inno Virtual Box OSE (the open source version) is now in Debian Unstable and also in Ubuntu universe. I was going to install the non-free version but I don't need USB support or RDP support so the OSE version ticks all the boxes.
