Description Jonas Nyren 2008-11-07 18:13:51 UTC 
After upgrading to latest build of VirtualBox (2.0.4-4.1) I can no longer start it (only as root). The error thrown by VirtualBox is as follows:

VirtualBox: Error -10 in SUPR3HardenedMain!
VirtualBox: Effective UID is not root (euid=1000 egid=100 uid=1000 gid=100)

VirtualBox: Tip! It may help to reinstall VirtualBox.

It worked well until the latest update from Virtualization:VirtualBox repository.

An updated package arrived, but when I as a regular user try to start it I now get:
user@box:~> VirtualBox
/usr/bin/VirtualBox: line 1: /usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox: Permission denied

Well, unfortunately, the update was to the i586 packs and not x86_64
Comment 3 Forgotten User E-S6JZ1O-Q 2008-11-08 22:21:34 UTC 
x86_64 update packages work great.  Thanks for the rapid response.
Comment 4 Jonas Nyren 2008-11-09 15:57:46 UTC 
Well as I opened this for i386 (ok, i586), and that package is still broken.
Comment 5 Jonas Nyren 2008-11-10 19:02:09 UTC 
Ok, there was apparently something changed in this package (sigh) and the fix is to add the users to the group "vboxusers"....
