to be honest, this is a perfect example where Oracle failed to keep track with recent kernel development! As we had seen it before, probably just not as extreme as we see it now, I thought it might be time to migrate all my virtual machines from VB to KVM... Guess what, I did not have trouble with any of them, which include Win 7 32bit, Win 10 64bit and various Linux VMs. One thing which really surprised me was, how well usage of USB devices works these days. I could even use a webcam inside a KVM VM which only very barely worked in VB. FWIW, I may have been lucky, but I certainly don't need VB anymore! PLEASE, this is not intended to start a flame war!

It's a known problem (actually the same as with virtualbox, except with VMware it results in a triple fault) and only VMware can fix it. Apparently they plan to address the issue in upcoming Workstation 16 and it's unclear what to expect for 15.5.x: https://communities.vmware.com/thread/638457 Michal Kubecek -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

If you look at https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1175201, you will note that conversion to KVM is my second suggested work around, right after staying with kernel 5.7. The fundamental reason for this situation is that the kernel developers in charge of memory management have the goal of restricting the acquisition of memory that can can execute code. When code external to the kernel can acquire this feature, a huge security hole exists. Through the past 4 or 5 kernel releases such memory acquisition has been tightened and VirtualBox has undergone several changes to adapt; however, with kernel 5.8, there is no adapting. Please note that I proposed a 2-line patch to our kernel developers to handle our situation until Oracle found a proper solution, but that request was denied. Oracle was also given advance notice. Apparently Oracle does have a solution, but it has not worked for me. Perhaps it will in work with VB 6.1.14, but I expect such a solution to be a temporary fix as it still requires the security hole. The real solution will be to incorporate libvirt the way that QEMU/KVM does, but that implementation is beyond my abilities. This issue has been a full-time sink for me for nearly 2 months. Unfortunately, I was not able to supply a seamless solution!

Exactly. FWIW, I find it unacceptable to a wait for such a long period, assuming VM users will wait that long, even knowing it's not a *real* fix!
The real solution will be to incorporate libvirt the way that QEMU/KVM does, but that implementation is beyond my abilities.
And again, yes, this is the way forward from my point of view, and it's absolutely not against your work - it's just a good chance now to decide if Oracle is a real good open source citizen, or not.
This issue has been a full-time sink for me for nearly 2 months. Unfortunately, I was not able to supply a seamless solution!

The Oracle/VB developers are the ones that have made the decision to keep their modules outside the kernel. I presume that they are doing this to keep the Linux version of VB as compatible as possible with that for Windows or OS X. Why would they not be responsible to fix the issue? It is not as if openSUSE has written VB. Our involvement is to keep the packages building and running on the various openSUSE releases. For some time, I have been providing patches for new kernels to Oracle. In this case, the fix was beyond my abilities.

Exactly, and this is why I believe the fault is at their side! Every Linux distribution running a 5.8 kernel will simply not work with VB, full stop!

No, not quite true. Virtualbox 6.1.3 (testbuild, build=139989, sdkbuild=139990) with virtualbox-ext-oracle (build=139990), builds and works with Linux 5.8.1. There is no "released" version of virtualbox for that yet, but slowly and surely it is coming. 5.2 branch is unsupported at this time and will not have updates for Linux 5.8. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
Hi! Now I got the workaround to get the VirtualBox started with kernel 5.17: a) Edit the file /etc/zypp/zypp.conf b) Set multiversion = provides:multiversion(kernel) This is the default with TumbleWeed c) Enhance the multiversion.kernels: multiversion.kernels = latest,latest-1,running,5.7.11-1-default Done. Now select 5.7.11-1-default at grub and VirtualBox works again.

Why not to pin kernel 5.7.11 (and other 5.7.11 related stuff) until VBox works with Kernel 5.8? This worked fine for me. But it leads me to a question: Is there some way how I can pin just the major version (5.7) and not the specific 5.7.11?

You could e.g. build a fake empty package which would conflict with kernel-default >= 5.8. But there is little point, there won't be any further 5.7.x kernel update in the repository once the kernel branch updated to 5.8.

Good idea, but this may case problems in other areas. Zypper obviously does not offer this

Sure, see the question more in general (it could be any package with a major version) Thanks Axel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Anyone else having such issues?
Yes, I've had these. tl;dr; change the setting "Emacs.FontBackend" to
"ftcrhb,x" in either your .Xresources or in
/usr/share/X11/app-defaults/Emacs
A fix for this should be coming to Tumbleweed very soon as well.
