2ème mise à jour de correction pour le logiciel de virtualisation gratuit de Sun qui passe donc en version 3.1.4. Son but : concurrencer VMware Player 3.0 ou Server 2.0.
Cette mise à jour corrige donc une flopée de bugs rencontrés sur les précédentes version du logiciel dont un concernant la stabilité du multicoeur, du guru méditation, de la compatibilité avec les Kernels Linux 2.6.32 et de quelques crashs avec certaines applications Windows 16bits.
Le reste du changelog est disponible ici
