Can anyone verify that VirtualBox works and runs on 64bit? I spent a
large amount of time trying to get it working for a user, and they
seemed to be doing everything right:
* kernel module was loaded
* user was in the vboxusers group

...but it still produced the "not in vboxusers group or module not
loaded". They tried the .run on virtualbox.org and it worked fine
there. I tried to pressure him into a bug report but I don't think
he'll file one (that was yesterday), so I'll ask here. :-)

Similar problem perhaps to bug 309089.

Kind thoughts,

I know this is trivial, but did they logout the user(s) after adding them to the vboxusers group ?

Citing the VirtualBox User Manual:
"The group vboxusers will be created during installation. Note that a user who is going to run VirtualBox must be member of that group. Also note that adding an active user to that group may require a restart of the session of that user. This should be done manually after successful installation of the package."

Best regards
