Niiiice! It worked, thanks! I searched for a server related to virtualbox on /etc/init.d/ but found nothing. Is there any way of making this automatic at boot time wihout a shell script? |

I got an idea to make it load at boot time. I can add vboxdrv to /etc/modules.autoload.d/2.6 and then just make a little script to load the virtualbox GUI.
If you got a better idea, I'm all ears!  |

Another error... A VM I had created was initializing and this error came up:

I know it's about permission, but I don't know how to give VirtualBox permission to access what it needs |

Thanks again! I really appreciate your help! It worked!
I've got another error about sound, but I'll investigate myself in the user's manual |

| There's another way to load virtualbox. If you set the "wrapper" use, a little script will be installed. Then you only need to type VirtualBox to run it (but you still need to load the kernel module before). |

Thanks! That would be really usefull. I hate to have a console open while running something with a GUI... I'll recompile it with that flag |
