Virtual Box doesn't work under ordinary user, though this user is in vboxusers group. Under SU it work normally. This happied after upgrage to 4.0.10-8.1 version from obs://build.opensuse.org/Virtualization community repository. In Oss repository there is 4.0.4 version.
Here the massage, that appears after start of Virtual Box under ordinary user: "Failed to create the VirtualBox COM object.
The application will now terminate.

I have an appliance called my_appliance.raw. To start the appliance locally, I use:
[code]...
After that I would like to ssh into the guest from the host but just the ssh command doesn't work. firewall is disabled on guest. the ip I use is the one that ifconfig shows when I run it on guest. sshd is running.
Have got slow bumpy - slow to load -slow to refresh graphics. Also noticed that when inittab 3 and doing a non graphical login for user startx wont work. Something about fbdev not loading.
logining in via kdm works for user. have tried placing an xorg.conf into /etc/X11 with what used to be ok for user to have dri.am using an radeon hd 2400 pcie graphic card. Also placed a file into /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/100-dri.conf again with what used to work to get dri working. Is it me or is slackware graphics gone down hill since 13.0?
My program attributes (it uses semanage to change range): I'd like to ordinary user (bartek) can execute my program. I executed as root:
chmod u+s se_chmod4
so now my user can change his range in permissive mode by my program. My politic: In enforcing mode i can see attributes but when i want to excute i get:
How should look like my TE file that user (bartek) could execute my program (forget at moment about "semanage")?
I'm using ubuntu,i have a bin file under my /usr/bin, if i run the command under root user i'm getting no problem an it works fine,if i try it in with differnent user im getting
Code: semctl:premission denied
so how can i edit my bin file and change it to right permission
Is there a way to allow ordinary users to mount / unmount an ntfs partition?I don't want it to be mounted automatically - I can do that. I want it to be mount / unmountable by ordinary users (possibly in a particular group).
i have noticed that if vista is not the active partition, hybernate does not work. it just goes black and then back to the user icon screen to log back in. another "slight" problem was that i was not able to apply a service pack. after restoring vistas dominance i was able to install the pack. is there any other work arounds for hybernate? even though you might not be interested in cleaning up after microsoft.
I created a new virtual host in Apache using Webmin and am having trouble getting it to work. When I created it, I opted to create the config file as a "New file under virtual servers directory /etc/apache2/sites-available". So now I have a default config file /etc/apache2/sites-available/default and a new one created by Webmin at /etc/apache2/sites-available/webmin.1412323.conf. It seems like the settings in that new Webmin config file aren't being picked up by Apache -- when I try and browse to mywebsite.com it shows my root /var/www folder, not the subdirectory /var/www/mywebsite.
Is there a way I can tell Apache to include the new Webmin config file for the virtual host or should I just copy the directives into the default file at /etc/apache2/sites-available/default? It seems like Webmin should automatically configure Apache to work with any newly generated config files.
I just installed openSUSE 11.4 and after the installation of VirtualBox I coudn't start it. The icon at the cursor kept jumping but no response. I tried to run the binary from Konsole and I got the following message:VirtualBox: supR3HardenedVerifyFileInternal: Failed to open "/usr/lib/virtualbox/VMMR0.r0": No such file or directory (2)I checked YaST to see which packages were installed:
So here is what I'm trying to do: I want to share a folder and have it so that guests can access it, but only read. I also want to make it possible that I can mount it as a network drive on my Windows 7 machine and login with my linux account so that I can have write access. This is from a completely stock Ubuntu 8.10 and Samba config. Everytime I've tried I've failed to get it working.
I've tried to ssh in as the root user w/o a password (RSA keys) but I've had no luck as the root user. I've tried the exact same commands with Debian 5 and Centos 5.5, without a problem. Fedora 13 and 14 won't work! I can only log in w/o a password as a normal user, never as the root user! It always asks for the password if I try as root. I've even tried copying Debian's and Centos's sshd_config file and restarting sshd, but it still won't work.
My problem is that I cant "rewrite" older password to new. It looks like I do:
Changing password for user johny. New UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.
all looks OK but after set up new password I can log in using OLD and NEW password. It's very unsecure for me. So in fact I cant change password and it looks like centos create next password to one accout and one account have more then one password... how can I prevent it? pls help me couse its very unsecure in my case.user looks in file shadow /etc/shadow like this:
My password doesn't work to enter super user mode in the terminal. this password works for all other administartive uses in and out of the terminal, just not for entering super user mode.
I need a Etext reader to help me read my txt books. I can not use the RFBD or get the Virtual box to work! Both tread told me to Not Try! so what is a etext reader for the txtbooks.
I would like to configure and SAN disk. But I do not have a physical SAN disk. Is it possible to create and configure a Virtual SAN disk and work on it with virtual machines?I have around 400GB of space in my Laptop.
I successfully installed OpenSUSE on a 4gb pen drive using the instructions contained within this portal. However, for the life of me I can't figure out why the persistent feature doesn't work.
I upgraded to OpenSuse 11.2 and just about the only thing that doesn't work is my wireless internet. From my research, I should be using the iwl4965 or iwlwifi driver; however my system seems to be running iwlagn. I have no idea how to switch it as neither of the correct drivers can be found in my yast, and I've failed to find any information about this on the Intel® Wireless WiFi Link drivers for Linux* website.
I set up some scripts n crontab and I found that the scripts are failing because cron seems not to load my user PATH variable. Is there any way to tell cron to load my PATH variable?
using suse 11.3 and kde 4.5 I installed kvm, I tried to install widows xp, everything works well until when the windows cd restart, there kvm shows en error like no disk to boot and don't reboot to continue the installation.
As stated, NO USB functions, not at all, the light on the mouse is on, but it does not move on screen, the PS2 keyboard does not function either. Nothing that would allow you to install it, works at all. I am absolutely shocked not one single person on here has mentioned this.
The last time I tried OpenSuse was version 10, it installed without issue, I noted the installer as the nicest one in the Linux world I had seen to date, only to be utterly let down by this USB fumble.I have Legacy USB support, Legacy Keyboard and Legacy Mouse USB support on, that isn't the issue, and this didn't happen with 10 on the same system.
I installed from scratch 11.2, but i see now that the Automatic update doesn't work. I run "Refresh" on Updater Applet and it come up with an error: PackageKit Error repo-not-available:
I have a problem whit this plasmoid.If I add this plasmoid while amarok runs, It works correctly.But if I close Amarok e then I run it again, plasmoid doesn't work.
I've created the GParted LiveUSB from what I found on the Ubuntu forum. Apparently the instructions given on GParted website doesn't work.
I essentially copied the necessary gparted files to my USB and then made it bootable using syslinux.
I've set the boot sequence properly to boot from my USB but it still doesn't do anything and just brings up the screen where I select my OSs (I have a dual-boot system with WinXP).
I don't have access to a CD-drive so will have to use the USB. Is there a different way to make the LiveUSB?
So, I jaibroke my iPod touch and have OpenSSH and I can ssh into my iPod, but I cannot ssh back into my Laptop??
I did
Code: $ echo '192.168.*.*' >> /etc/hosts.allow ##I googled and it said to do this $ echo 'sshd: 192.168.*.*' >> /etc/hosts.allow I also uncommented these lines in /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
[Code]....
I am 100% sure I am putting in the right password. I even did that ^ code from my laptop, the one I am ssh'ing into, but it still will not accept my password. I even tried root@ instead of matt@..
