The Virtual Machine Additions for Linux can be installed in the following Linux operating systems when running as guests of Virtual Server 2005 R2:

Enterprise distributions

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (update 6)
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9

Standard distributions

Red Hat Linux 9.0
SuSE Linux 9.2

As usual, the latest version (1.1) of these Additions can be downloaded via the Microsoft Connect site.
