Sure, your BIOS has to provide an option to toggle "on" VT-x, if no, ask the manufacturer for a BIOS update or how to enable this. And as you seem to be running a 64-bits host OS there shouldn't be more tweaks to do. > My system is: > "Linux artifex 3.2.0-3-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Jul 23 02:45:17 UTC 2012 x86_64 > GNU/Linux" > > dmesg: > "[ 0.051573] CPU0: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU E8400 @ 3.00GHz > stepping 0a > ... > [ 0.140066] Brought up 2 CPUs > [ 0.140068] Total of 2 processors activated (11970.46 BogoMIPS)." > > vboxdrv related lines (what and why legacy support warning?): " > [ 55.378467] vboxdrv: Found 2 processor cores. > [ 55.378878] vboxdrv: fAsync=0 offMin=0x22e offMax=0xc57 > [ 55.378926] vboxdrv: TSC mode is 'synchronous', kernel timer mode is > 'normal'. > [ 55.378928] vboxdrv: Successfully loaded version 4.1.18_Debian (interface > 0x00190000). > [ 55.452749] vboxpci: IOMMU not found (not registered) > [ 160.448576] warning: `VirtualBox' uses 32-bit capabilities (legacy support > in use)" I think the warning is harmless. I also get it from another native applications (e.g., ntpd) and IIRC, the message came from a library (libpcap) but is pointless.
