After I tried to make my onboard video card (radeon x1250) work with openGL (I didn't succeed), it went bad. I get this error when I attempt to start VirtualBox: VirtualBox: supR3HardenedMainGetTrustedMain: dlopen("/usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox.so",) failed: libatiuki.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Other software also misbehave.how to "reset" the video drivers?
I have an asus pc, and its network hardware is not recognized by debian, the drivers are not even in the list provided during the installation process. I managed to download them from another pc, but if i try to make them and install them, i'm stucked because Make is not installed on debian (nor is sudo).So i need a connection to install the drivers that provide me a co0nnections..
I've been having problem after problem trying to install virtualbox 4.0.2, on 32 bit opensuse 11.3. I've been able to jump over a few hurdles by installing the kernel source. But now I get this error when starting virtualbox from the command line:
Code: WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module available for the current kernel (2.6.34-12-default) or it failed to

openSUSE, just installed 11.2 some days ago and have several problems with kernel 2.6.31 and my hardware, i was wondering if there is a way to upgrade it to version 2.6.32... that i know i dont have any problems with it.The problems that i have is with my ath9x driver, iv'e experience it before with other distros and the same kernel (2.6.31)Another question i have is about VirtualBox, i use it to run windows, and i'm amazed of the lack of speed and performance i have in openSUSE, i dont know if it's because i'm doing something wrong, quite possible since i'm not familiar with the -suse way- of using linux... i read the wiki about virtualbox made all that it's said (used OSE and non-OSE) and nothing changed... it's unusable. i used to use it in other distros with no problems, but in suse i have alot of issues.
apart from all the issues i have concerning speed and performance in openSUSE it's worth of a try.hope that configuring it better will speed up and increase performance.btw, i have a amd athlon x2 2.1ghz, ati radeon hd3200 using fglrx module and 4gb of ram.
Im trying to install opensuse 64 bit on virtualbox, but it keeps telling me virtualbox is a 32 bit machine. Is there anyway to do this, I'm pretty sure i'm using 64 bit virtualbox.
my error when trying to run a VB (Virtualbox). Error as copied from error box. install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel and execute 'modprobe vboxdrv' as root. VBox status code: -1908 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED).

I get this when trying to launch a VB after making one with wizzard.
I tried to install VirtualBox by using the "Help->Check For Updates" in VirtualBox and then downloading the rpm. When it finished, it popped up a huge error window that was too tall for the screen (and I couldn't copy the text). It wouldn't install. It said something about how the files in virtualBox 3.2.6 conflicted with those in 3.0.12.
I'm trying to run OpenSUSE 11.2 on VirtualBox (ver3.0.8 on Ubuntu 9.10). The installation proceeds without a hitch, but when I try to login, the login manager (kdm?) complains that the login failed. When I go to the console, my login/password do no work there either. I've tried installing OpenSUSE 11.2 three times -- the first two times, it complained about the simplicity of my password -- and all three times I've run into this problem.Have other users encountered a similar problem? It doesn't seem like a VirtualBox-specific issue. Is the /etc/password being changed somehow?
When there is a total of 2 GB of physical RAM, how much RAM would you give to openSUSE-11.2 (i586) with KDE as a VirtualBox guest in Vista? There is no intention of running a second VM at the same time.
Installed OpenSUSE in VirtualBox to try out. Boots ok but can't capture mouse! I installed with all defaults and using Gnome. Host OS is Ubuntu. I'm running XP fine in VirtualBox and wanted to test drive OpenSUSE.
I want to install Debian 6 on an USB via VirtualBox. Then i gonna take the USB and putt it in on another computer, and boot it from there.
I have two questions: 1. How do I install Debian 6 on a USB via Virtualbox? I have download Vbox from this http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualb ... 12-Win.exe (i use winXp now).
2. How do a boot the USB via a floppy? My old computer, who i want to install Debian 6 on it, cannot boot from USB beacuse the BIOS dont have "Boot from USB". I have USB 1.0 i think.
I am trying to take a look at Fedora for the 1st time and usually like to have a good tryout of a distro in VirtualBox.
Firstly, the live cd image boots up fine and seems to work ok except for a Kernel crash at the beginning of the gnome session, but it does enable basic usage within the live system.
But, when trying to do an actual hd install (still within VBox) Fedora 14 just keeps on crashing the VBox??, every install attempt just aborts, I have given the virtual machine a 20gb virtual hd, 2gb ram, 128mb video ram and have not applied any "unusual" extra settings. All versions of Ubuntu, Mint and PCLinuxOS work flawlessly within VBox.
Has anyone else tried installing into VirtualBox here?? (not just running the live environment)
I've wasted a good few hours with this, is it just that some distros dont like VirtualBox or is this indicative of what Fedora would be like on a real non virtual install??
ps, I have the latest VirtualBox fully updated and a flawless host (Mint 9), and perhaps I should add that I'm not a Linux expert and have only been using Linux for just under a year now.
how to install virtualbox on ubuntu 7.04. I tryed to install VirtualBox-3.1.2_OSE from virtualbox.org and following the instructions i have downloaded it using terminal but i dont know how to install it .
Ive been running VirtualBox with a windows XP installation for some time, on an opensuse 11.0 host for some time. Recently, however ive been having issues with suse, and want to take my virtual XP and make it a primary bootable physical partition, on a second disk
I know it can be done, but im not finding how exactly.
What ive tried so far. I've taken VBoxManage terminal tool and converted the VDI to a .img file, and tried to move that to my second physical disk, but it didnt work at all.
After some thinking, I booted to acronis true image within my virtual machine, and cloned the C:/ drive of windows over to my second hard drive. That got me further, but doesn't boot fully. Comes up to windows xp logo, and black screen boot loops.
Ive heard about using vditool to create a .raw file, and then go from there, but im at a loss to find vdi tool
How can i move my virtual machine to a physical, bootable partition on a second drive?
I am finding that plasma-desktop crashes on a freshly installed 11.3 64-bit VM in VirtualBox whenever memory is set to 512MB. I created the VM with 1GB, which is overkill for what I am using it for. At that point all was well. After lowing memory to 512MB, it boots and starts to load the desktop, which fails - error log below. Increasing memory to 756MB allows it to load fine again.
I don't really need a desktop environment on this VM, but it seems odd this is happening at all. 512MB should be fine to run a basic VM with KDE and per Hardware requirements - openSUSE 256MB is the minimum, and 512MB is recommended.
While it's not a big deal, I am a bit curious why this really needs 756MB to run a bare bones system and just launch KDE. Really? We've come to that?
Perhaps I just long for the halcyon days when Linux would run, including a desktop environment, on a 486 with 256MB . . .
Observed on two host systems both with openSUSE 11.3 32 bit using ext4: When a big files, in this case a 1.2 GB and a 1.7 GB is copied from DVD, usb harddrive or shared folder into a Windows 7 32 bit guest system, the copied file is corrupted. The md5sum has changed and until the guest system has been rebooted successive md5sum tests on the same file comes up with various results... After a reboot md5sum tests show consistent results, but a sum different from the original file.
So i installed debian squeeze in virtualbox with xfce and i thought that it was persistent. when i powered down the virtual machine and started it up again later I only had the option of installing it again. Do i use save state to keep it in the installed stage? would i have to do that each time i made a change? i want to make sure so that i don't keep having to re install it.
I am currently running VirtualBox OSE but I need USB support. If I install the closed source version, is it possible to have it use the OSE's virtual machines or will I have to redo all of it?
I'm now on ubuntu and I want to install virtualbox on my system i.e. maverick 10.10. I downloaded virtualbox-4.0_4.0.4-70112~Ubuntu~maverick_i386.deb but there was a problem. My software center says "Cannot install 'libqt4-network". I even did it with terminal but same problem: 'Cannot install 'libqt4-network'.
I tried installing virtualbox on a redhat 5.3 (32 bit) on an intel box. It cannot find prereq libSDL-1.2.so.0 while trying to install the rpm with yum. I have looked for someplace to download the prereq and cannot find it. Does anyone know where I can find the prereq?
I have installed both 32 and 64 bit versions of Ubuntu 11.04 in VirtualBox 4.0.6 and have installed the VBox Additions. When I try to add new software or update software I get a package operation failed error.
installArchives() failed: Setting up tzdata (2011g-0ubuntu0.11.04) ... Use of uninitialized value $reply in scalar chomp at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/FrontEnd/Passthrough.pm line 66.[code]....
I have used the same install media to install Ubuntu on a stand alone system and it works fine.
I generally check what updates are being installed. This time sadly I didn't and again this kernel had one missing module. VirtualBox-OSE stopped working. It had been working fine with other upgrades. No it's not a problem with dkms or other stuff. This kernel doesn't have vboxdrv module like other kernels...i verified it...
[Code]...
The 2.6.38.8 version doesn't have vboxdrv module!....hence again I have to roll back to older kernel. So before blindly upgrading....read this message!
My laptop is running Linux Mint 9 and I am trying to install Fedora 13 in a virtual machine within Virtualbox. However, it's not working. It takes forever to get past the initial white/blue loading bar when it first boots and then it just goes white, so I can't see anything. I've already tried modifying the bootline parameter of the live CD to include noprobe, noacpi, noapic, nousb, and nofirewire. However, the result is the same. Am I missing something? Is it possible to install this?
I used to have my ubuntu 10.04 running with a virtualbox for a windows xp. I remove that virtualbox and create another one, bigger, with 10gb. On the process, my computer freezes.. now I'm stuck on that initramfs screen.I really need to recover my linux (I have apache, mysql, samba, all up and running).I can reach "grub" booting with right shift pressed, but I really don't know where I have to begin.
