Hi,
first, as this is the vbox-dev list please be clear, I am not asking for
VBox help.
I have been subscribed to this list for a while and it seems this query
should be ok
to ask here.
Quick summary:
I have been running vbox for some years, I am quite familiar with it.
I run a win10 host with Linux:arch/centOS/Debian/Ubuntu and WinXP guests.
This all worked well for a long time.
Problem:
Recently, I upgraded vbox to version 5.1.4 r110238, and now the
arch-linux client
simply will not run properly. It seems that it refuses to load the
guest additions.
I have spoken to the arch-linux support channels (on freenode) and their
immediate
response was that "there is a problem between virtual box and the latest
Linux Kernel"
I could not get any other useful information out of that channel ..
other than they
believe the problem lies entirely with Virtualbox.
I also asked on freenode#vbox but did not get any reply to my question ..
As arch-linux is one of the bleeding edge linux distros I am prepared to
accept that
problems like this will most likely manifest themselves with arch before
any other OS.
Question:
Is this problem known to the Vbox developers ?
I have scanned the bug-trac but could not find a matching bug report.
Is there anything I can do to help ?
Many thanks
