Hi all.
I hope this is the right place for me to raise my issue. After doing a pacman -Syu and then rebooting I noticed that I could no longer start my VirtualBox vms
I get the following error: Failed to open a session for the virtual machine My_VM Callee RC: NS_ERROR_INVALID_ARG (0x80070057) Virtualbox then crashes (segmentation fault).
I had the testing repo enabled, so I thought that one of the packages from testing might have broken it. So I disabled the testing repo in pacman.conf and removed all testing packages with: pacman -Syy pacamn -Suu
I then recompiled my virtualbox drivers and rebooted. But that did not help at all.
I created a core dump file by following these instructions: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Core_dump
So the stack trace is 41000 lines long :-| I'll paste just the first and last few lines: #0 0xb5cad825 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libQtGui.so.4 #1 0xb5ca7b27 in ??

Any advice? Should I file a bug in the arch bug tracker? Thanks in advance. Pico
Did you rebuild the module using /etc/rc.d/vboxdrv setup? -- Regards, Nilesh Govindarajan Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/nilesh.gr Twitter: http://twitter.com/nileshgr Website: http://www.itech7.com VPS Hosting: http://www.itech7.com/a/vps
