Probably the greatest idea I ever had in this week - a VirtualBox VM launcher right inside a Fluxbox menu !⸮
All menu items will launch either VBoxManage, the rdesktop-vrdp/rdesktop client or the headless front-end so it's really not as interactive as you would expect. Script that will generate the (sub)menu file can be found here.
After downloading, place it in a folder and execute it after setting the permission bits. Your menu file will be found at ~/.fluxbox/VBoxMenu . Include this in your main menu file and you are done.

VirtualBox Windows XP AHCI drivers
For everybody trying to install XP on a VirtualBox SATA harddrive, here's the floppy image containing the drivers :
https://sites.google.com/site/r0h1tscache/AHCI_ICH8M.zip?attredirects=0&d=1
Unzip and mount the image in the virtual floppy drive. Press F6 during install and select Intel ICH8M-E/M SATA
Tested on VirtualBox 3.2.10.
Or you can get the same drivers sans the ready-made image from Intel's site.

Script that reboots a router
A script to reboot BSNL/Airtel broadband routers via telnet login.
In case you don't specify username or password, it defaults to "admin" and "admin" respectively. This behaviour can be changed by editing the first few lines of the script.
UPDATE ( 01 NOVEMBER 2010 ):
Alternatively, this seems to work on some routers but not all :
https://sites.google.com/site/r0h1tscache/rrouter.sh?attredirects=0&d=1
rrouter.sh : Script to reboot router
Usage:
rrouter.sh [-u username] [-p password] [IPaddress]
In case you don't specify username or password, it defaults to "admin" and "admin" respectively. This behaviour can be changed by editing the first few lines of the script.

Alternatively, this seems to work on some routers but not all :
wget --http-user="admin" --password="admin" http://192.168.1.1/rebootinfo.cgi
