If you enable Remote Display after a VM starts and connect via VNC to host:port (default port 5900) the running VM will crash. How-To-Repeat: 1) Install www/virtualbox-ose with VNC support. 2) Create a new VM with out Remote Display enabled 3) Make sure Remote Dispaly is disabled (within the VM settings: Display, Remote Display tab, uncheck Enable Server) 3) Start the VM without Remote Display enabled 4) Turn on Remote Display (see above - check Enable Server) 5) Connect to the VirtualBox host via the port VNC is running on
