Hi Craig, Yes, I've had problems trying to run vbox, where it just hangs. I tried running it through ktrace, but it just stopped the trace after loading the libraries, nothing else. Haven't tried with truss, though, nor have I checked SUID or anything (wasn't motivated enough to look deep into it). This may be the same thing you're seeing. I'm also running 7.2-RELEASE i386. - Justin On Sat, Jun 20, 2009 at 11:25 AM, Craig Butler<craig001@lerwick.hopto.org> wrote: > Hi All > > Is anyone else having difficulties running this as a normal user ? > > * running 7.2-RELEASE i386 > * have added user to the vboxusers group. > * confirmed by issuing groups command as user > > When I go to run VirtualBox it just hangs, if I run it within a truss > session I get a warning saying; > > VirtualBox - Error in SUPR3HardenedMain > Effective UID is not root > > I then tried to setuid the link and the binary, still getting the same > result. > > Works ok if I su upto root tho... =A0Although sometimes only when running > with truss. > > Cheers > > Craig B > > > > On Thu, 2009-06-11 at 21:45 +0200, Martin Wilke wrote: >> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- >> Hash: SHA1 >> >> Huhu, >> >> Yes we life and that's good :-). >> Changes: >> >> =A0 - Fix build error when compiling in debug mode on FreeBSD HEAD >> =A0 - SemEvent?-r0drv/FreeBSD: Don't use tvtohz for an infinite timeout. >> =A0 - Some FreeBSD relate typos >> =A0 - Enable shared OpenGL service.
