Well, everything works perfectly. The devices is getting IP address
from the DHCP of the LAN. I thought a new LAN with IP would be
created. The DNS is not set correctly, but from
settings/connections/network cards the correct DNS can be set. I can
also ping the IP from my linux box, so gdb should work as well.

Mobi, to understand your environment, you have:

Linux host + VirtualBox + Win XP guest -> Virtual PC and
                                                                  \ >
Device Emulator

is that correct?

I guess that if you want to connect to some port inside the emulator
from the host (Linux), you're going to port forwarding from Linux to
the device address, and then connect gdb to localhost

No need to port forwarding. sorry to confuse you. I was asking weeks
ago if anybody managed to run device emulator with networking inside
virtualbox. Got only one negative answer. The problem was that it was
impossible to "bind" the virtual network adaptor of VirtualBox with
the virtual network adaptor of the device. By installing virtual pc,
some magic driver is installed/replaced/no idea, but now it is
possible to have networking. The windows mobile 6.1 running inside the
device emulator is getting separate IP address from DHCP server of the
LAN, so you can talk directly from Linux to the device (without port
forwarding). The VirtualPC is not used at all just some driver that is
installed when you install VirtualPC.

I hope now it is clear :)

OK. I see now, the emulator is another machine in the same network as
the host. Great!

Well, in that case (I mean installing XP and then the emulator) I
think that using the VMNet driver (although no longer available as a
separate download) will be enough.

As running water. Thanks.

Probably the magic that Virtual PC install is this VMNet driver. I
heard sthg. about it, but found nada.
