[arch-general] VirtualBox not running properly
Hi, I installed Virtual/box from the official repos. However when I try to run a Virtual OS it gives me the following error. http://i.imgur.com/sBzl4.png I followed all the instructions after installing it.

Did you add your user to the vboxusers group? -- Regards, Richard Schütz
Have you tried to run? /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup Again? 2011/10/13 Madhurya Kakati <mkakati2805@gmail.com>

I think you mean rc.d here, but there is no init script anymore. To build the modules /usr/bin/vboxbuild must be used now. -- Regards, Richard Schütz
Yeah. I meant rc.d sorry I lsed here to check the place of thefile but forgot in running ubuntu at work. 2011/10/13 Richard Schütz <r.schtz@t-online.de>

Even kvm doesn't seem to work. I loaded the kvm-amd module and added myself to the kvm group. When I try to run qemu with kvm I get this error: Could not access KVM kernel module: Permission denied failed to initialize KVM: Permission denied No accelerator found!

Did you relogin after adding your user to the group? -- Regards, Richard Schütz

Why?
because there is not reason to run it as root. services that needs root are already suid. -- Ionuț
