VirtualBox is not starting. Could be permissions problem.
VirtualBox & [1] 2631 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.
QSettings::value: Empty key passed QSettings::value: Empty key passed
What does the following show on your system:
rpm -V virtualbox virtualbox-host-kmp-default virtualbox-qt
Please run the command as user root. The "Tip!" above might actually help to resurrect the situation for you:
zypper in --force virtualbox virtualbox-host-kmp-default virtualbox-qt
Afterwards you could re-run the "rpm -V ..." command above and compare outputs.
If you suspect that some permissions are wrong for some programs, you can also check for that (again as "root"):
chkstat --system
If this indicates something *is* wrong, you can even set the permissions to their proper value (also as "root"):
chkstat --system --set
HTH, cheers.

rpm -V virtualbox virtualbox-host-kmp-default virtualbox-qt /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxNetDHCP should be root:vboxusers 4750. (wrong permissions 0750) /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxNetAdpCtl should be root:vboxusers 4750. (wrong permissions 0750) /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxHeadless should be root:vboxusers 4750. (wrong permissions 0750) /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxSDL should be root:vboxusers 4750. (wrong permissions 0750) /usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox should be root:vboxusers 4750. (wrong permissions 0750)
Your current installation has a mixed set of files. According to the spec files used to build the VB packages for openSUSE, the following are installed suid: %verify(not mode) %attr(4750,root,vboxusers) %{_vbox_instdir}/VBoxNetDHCP %verify(not mode) %attr(4750,root,vboxusers) %{_vbox_instdir}/VBoxNetAdpCtl %verify(not mode) %attr(4750,root,vboxusers) %{_vbox_instdir}/VBoxHeadless %verify(not mode) %attr(4750,root,vboxusers) %{_vbox_instdir}/VBoxSDL %verify(not mode) %attr(4750,root,vboxusers) %{_vbox_instdir}/VirtualBox
File /usr/bin/VirtualBox is not suid. Your installation shows the wrong permissions.
You could either do a 'sudo chmod 4750 ' on all 5 of those files above, or use YaST to reinstall all the virtualbox packages.

Larry, I used the command "chkstat --system --set" as root. Then I logged out and logged in. Now it is working!! -- Cheers! Roman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
