After an upgrade to VirtualBox v3.2.4 (I also upgraded the Linux kernel to version 2.6.34), I am now able to run VirtualBox with the KVM modules loaded without it causing an error. I then ran virtual machines in both VirtualBox and KVM simultaneously... and that works too. -- Chris -- Chris Knadle [email protected] _______________________________________________ Mid-Hudson Valley Linux Users Group http://mhvlug.org http://mhvlug.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mhvlug Upcoming Meetings (6pm - 8pm) MHVLS Auditorium Jul 7 - Patent Absurdity - The Movie Aug 4 - Samba Sep 1 - BOINC
