--- Begin Message ---Package: virtualbox Version: 4.3.18-dfsg-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? some time it came up that my network manager grafical interface where it was circeling internely. as i klicked it i found out that it has to do with vboxnet0. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? i opened virtualbox to remove the not anymore needed network interface which resoultet in a freeze of the virtualbox gui. also ive got manny kernel error massages periodicly. After i recognised that output i killed the virtualbox gui using killall and the output stopped. i will attach the last lines of my dmesg in here... * What was the outcome of this action? for now it is working but i dont know if it will happen again if i add again a vboxnet0 device... * What outcome did you expect instead? that network manager dosnt get confused with vboxnet0, default configured manually without networkmanager maybe, and that i would be able to remove network interfaces without freezing guis and losts of dmesg errors. here is the output essage from syslogd@treakis-tp at Dec 12 14:58:32 ... 7:29 kernel:[90972.468070] unregister_netdevice: waiting for vboxnet0 to become free.
