1 Hi,
2
3 I tried to run openvswitch 2.0.0 in a virtualbox-guest-vm.
4 I ran emerge --config after the installation to generate an empty database.
5 I start ovsdb-server all is fine.
6 I start ovs-vswitchd all is fine.
7 However as soon as I try to configure something ie add a bridge ovs-vswitchd
8 runs at 100% cpu and I get the following message:
9
10 ovs-vswitchd |2014-06-14T12:29:28Z|00672|netlink_socket|ERR|received invalid nlmsg (76 bytes < 16)
11
12 And thousands of them. It seems the two can't communicate via the unix-domain
13 socket. Anybody got an idea what might be wrong (maybe in the kernel
14 configuration)?

16 Regards,
