Cant run VirtualBox as user
Last modified: 2008-11-25 20:20:45 UTC
When trying to run VirtualBox 2.0.4 OSE in openSUSE 11.1 beta5 installed from DVD as user I get message 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. and virtualbox cant run. User are in vboxusers group and vboxdrv module loaded. When trying to run virtualbox as root it works.
I think it's this issue: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=427266
I've just tested the version in (Community Repositries / VirtualBox) http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Virtualization:/VirtualBox/openSUSE_Factory/ virtualbox-ose-2.0.4-9.1 That version worked without a problem. If that version will be used i think the problem is fixed.
version from Virtualization:/VirtualBox/openSUSE_Factory/ works for me
