Hope this helps.
I removed openntpd completely and disabled time sync. The vm still freezes eventually. Also, I cannot set clocksource to anything else than acpi_pm
Let's go back to brainstorming mode, i welcome any new ideas.
OK,
Let's start over. I haven't a clue about your clocksource loop, but I would suggest rebuilding virtualbox using:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9753
Of all the different packages, I have had great luck with this one. Just download the tarball and untar/ungzip with:
tar -xzf virtualbox_bin.tar.gz
cd virtualbox_bin/
makepkg -s
sudo pacman -U virtualbox_bin-3.2.10-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
Then test again.
That might help but if it where me I would build it using "A clean chroot"
The instructions to do that is here:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_Clean_Chroot
That way you would not get anything you didn't bargain for ;)
Another suggestion would be to download the puel version from Oracle/Sun (http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/vboxdownload.html) and install it. I use it on two boxes and have not experienced any problems. Myra -- Life's fun when your sick and psychotic!
