 |
|
Hello folks, i install by emerge VirtualBox 2.0.2 with these flags USE="additions headless sdk vboxwebsrv" but when i want to start the application by console i have the next error:
deepyox@taritali ~ $ /opt/VirtualBox/VBox.sh
Unknown application - VBox.sh
I see that in this file there is no "VBox"
| Code: | APP=`which $0`
APP=`basename $APP`
APP=${APP##/*/}
case "$APP" in
VirtualBox)
exec "$INSTALL_DIR/VirtualBox" "$@"
;;
VBoxManage)
exec "$INSTALL_DIR/VBoxManage" "$@"
;;
VBoxSDL)
exec "$INSTALL_DIR/VBoxSDL" "$@"
;;
VBoxVRDP)
exec "$INSTALL_DIR/VBoxHeadless" "$@"
;;
VBoxHeadless)
exec "$INSTALL_DIR/VBoxHeadless" "$@"
;;
vboxwebsrv)
exec "$INSTALL_DIR/vboxwebsrv" "$@"
;;
*)
echo "Unknown application - $APP"
;;
esac

Change VirtualBox to VBox.sh, if that is the option you want.
A better solution will be create symbolic link to it.
| Code: | | ln -s VBox.sh VirtualBox |
However in binary version, there is already a VirtuaBox executable in /opt/VirtualBox/. |

| Also, depending on your desktop, virtualbox-bin should put an entry in your menu. In mine (KDE 3.5.9), it is Kmenu->System->Sun xVM VirtualBox |

Sorry, i am going to read the description USE flags when i install a program, i see that the flags -headless only install the text mode of VirtualBox, i didn't read it 
| Code: | taritali ~ # euse -i headless
global use flags (searching: headless)
************************************************************
no matching entries found
local use flags (searching: headless)
************************************************************
[- ] headless (app-emulation/virtualbox-bin):
Install without any graphic frontend
[- ] headless (app-emulation/virtualbox-ose):
Build without any graphic frontend
|
Now i emerge VirtualBox without headless flag and i have an VirtualBox binary in /opt/VirtualBox
Thanks |
