Here's my set-up: ~:$ freebsd-version -ru 12.2-RELEASE-p7 12.2-RELEASE-p11 ~:$ pkg info | awk '/virtualbox/ {print $1}' virtualbox-ose-6.1.26_3 virtualbox-ose-additions-6.1.26_1 virtualbox-ose-kmod-6.1.26 Here's the problem: When running VirtualBox over SSH with X11-forwarding, I'm unable to start windowed virtual machines from the GUI. A window comes up saying "Creating process for virtual machine 'burp' (GUI/Qt) ... (1/2)" and nothing happens. - VMs start fine using the "Headless Start" menu option. - VMs fail to start using "Normal" or "Detachable" menu options. - VMs start fine using any of the three options locally (on the VM's host). Here's the kicker: If I'm logged in on the VM's host, both "Normal" and "Detachable" work over SSH. What is causing that, and how can I fix it so I don't have to be logged in locally on the host to start windowed instances remotely? More details: I've enable the following ExtraData items on the VM, but nothing comes up while waiting for the failed windowed session to start: setextradata burp GUI/Dbg/Enabled true setextradata burp GUI/Dbg/AutoShow true I've also tried running the windowed VM instance directly without result: ~:$ ssh burp.host "virtualboxvm --startvm burp --debug-command-line" Furthermore, log-outs hang on the VM's host if a windowed instance of the VM is running over SSH. -- Sent with https://mailfence.com Secure and private email
