Well, in the absence of any feedback on the below, I went and re-read the wiki, including "Known Issues in previous versions of the port" which shouldn't be relevant, and there, lo and behold, was a description of this exact problem, with the advice "Kill one of them" - and it worked. After getting rid of a non-virtualbox-specific issue with the networking, I'm now up and running with a Linux guest - very nice. But, apparently this problem is not completely fixed in the 3.1.2 version - and since it was supposed to be fixed, I assume that someone knows something about it. Is there some debugging etc that I can do to track it down? The behavior is completely reproducible, and the workaround, while apparently reproducible too, will become annoying after a while I think.:-) --Per Hedeland Per Hedeland <per@hedeland.org> wrote: > >Hello, > >I was really looking forward to trying out VirtualBox after all the good >reports here, but it was not to be:-) - when I try to start it with >simply 'VirtualBox', it just sits there, doing basically nothing at >all... > >This is on i386 7.2-RELEASE, virtualbox-ose-3.1.2_1 and >virtualbox-ose-kmod-3.1.2_1 built from ports with default config and no >issues, vboxdrv.ko/vboxnetflt.ko/vboxnetadp.ko loaded fine as per >instructions. > >Below is the tail of a ktrace - the original process (1421) forks >(1422), and then 1421 is repeatedly and unsuccessfully polling on what I >believe is a pipe to 1422, while 1422 seems stuck in a _umtx_op() >call.
