Re: [Call For Testing] VirtualBox for FreeBSD! take 6

Hi All

Is anyone else having difficulties running this as a normal user ?

* running 7.2-RELEASE i386 
* have added user to the vboxusers group.
* confirmed by issuing groups command as user

When I go to run VirtualBox it just hangs, if I run it within a truss
session I get a warning saying;

VirtualBox - Error in SUPR3HardenedMain
Effective UID is not root

I then tried to setuid the link and the binary, still getting the same
result.

Works ok if I su upto root tho...  Although sometimes only when running
with truss.

Cheers

Craig B
