I am using a grsecurity hardened kernel downloaded from here -
http://indiaforcekernel.googlecode.com/files/linux-image-2.6.32.9-grsecindiaforce1.1_1.1_i386.deb
It is patched to provide maximum security but it prevents segment
relocation..
An example of this is -
r...@indiaforce:~# VirtualBox
VirtualBox: Error -610 in supR3HardenedMainInitRuntime!
VirtualBox: dlopen("/usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxRT.so",) failed:
/usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxRT.so: cannot make segment writable for relocation:
Permission denied
VirtualBox: Tip! It may help to reinstall VirtualBox.
I got the above message while trying to execute VirtualBox-OSE.
Tried installing VirtualBox from source, and I got
Checking for Xmu: found, OK.
Checking for Mesa / GLU: /home/harshad/VirtualBox-3.1.4-OSE/debian/.tmp_out:
error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libGL.so.1: cannot make
segment writable for relocation: Permission denied
Is there any practical workaround for this, other then reinstalling other
kernel??
