Package: virtualbox Version: 4.1.18-dfsg-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, Since a recent upgrade, VirtualBox no longer starts at all for me. Running the virtualbox binary outputs nothing on the terminal, and nothing happens: the program seemingly freezes, but responds to Ctrl-C, yet nothing visible happens. The same happens when I run VirtualBox --startvm, or indeed just VirtualBox. VirtualBox --help works fine, though.
The only clue in dmesg is this: [11845.573351] warning: `VirtualBox' uses 32-bit capabilities (legacy support in use) Of course, I have successfully loaded the vboxdrv module: [12651.415439] vboxdrv: Found 4 processor cores. [12651.415761] vboxdrv: fAsync=0 offMin=0x1ef offMax=0xfae [12651.415809] vboxdrv: TSC mode is 'synchronous', kernel timer mode is 'normal'. [12651.415811] vboxdrv: Successfully loaded version 4.1.18_Debian (interface 0x00190000). When I hadn't, the warning about the missing interface device node was displayed on the console when I ran virtualbox, though everything else was exactly the same. Any help would be welcome! /Albin -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing-proposed-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages virtualbox depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii dpkg 1.16.8 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii libcurl3 7.26.0-1 ii libgcc1 1:4.7.1-2 ii libgsoap2 2.8.7-1 ii libpng12-0 1.2.49-1 ii libpython2.7 2.7.3~rc2-2.1 ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.15-5 ii libssl1.0.0 1.0.1c-4 ii libstdc++6 4.7.1-2 ii libvncserver0 0.9.9+dfsg-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.5.0-1 ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.13-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.1-2 ii libxml2 2.8.0+dfsg1-5 ii libxmu6 2:1.1.1-1 ii libxt6 1:1.1.3-1 ii python 2.7.3~rc2-1 ii python2.7 2.7.3~rc2-2.1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.7.dfsg-13 Versions of packages virtualbox recommends: ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 8.0.4-1 ii libqt4-opengl 4:4.8.2-2+b1 ii libqtcore4 4:4.8.2-2+b1 ii libqtgui4 4:4.8.2-2+b1 ii virtualbox-dkms 4.1.18-dfsg-1 ii virtualbox-qt 4.1.18-dfsg-1 Versions of packages virtualbox suggests: ii vde2 2.3.2-4 pn virtualbox-guest-additions-iso <none> -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
