Package: virtualbox-ose-guest-utils
Version: 3.2.8-dfsg-1
Severity: important
$ sudo /etc/init.d/virtualbox-ose-guest-utils start
Starting VirtualBox Additions: error: VbglR3Init failed with
rc=VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND.
failed!
I can also reproduce the error message using:
$ VBoxService
: error: VbglR3Init failed with rc=VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND.
I am using Debian as a guest system in VirtualBox 3.2.8 r64453 on Mac OS
X.
I also note that I can't use a USB device (a CCID smart card reader)
inside the guest Debian.
lsusb is blocked in a system call and returns only when I unplug the USB
device.
I have no idea if the two issues ar related.
I can use the same USB device using Debian 5.0 stable instead of
testing/unstable. So something is broken in the Linux kernel or OSE
guest tools in testing/unstable.
Thanks

I think this was just a typo, yes, you should have vboxguest. And depending on
how your Debian system is set up it may or may not get automatically loaded. If
not you might want to add it to /etc/modules.

Good, i.e. we can close this report.

I haven't checked but it might also be that you need the non-OSE guest utils
for USB too.
