[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#798527: virtualbox fails to work with systemd

[Gianfranco Costamagna]

Hi Ritesh, seems that I tried and I was wrong.

WARNING: The character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist.
Please install the virtualbox-dkms package and the appropriate
headers, most likely linux-headers-generic.

You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.


virtualbox starts, but no vm can be started




Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)

The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing

'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'

as root. If it is available in your distribution, you should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary.


so yes, please commit your solution on git :)


thanks!

G.
