I am running VB on a gentoo laptop; everything is mounted. I have not |
| 40 |
had any problems for a long time. I sync'ed portage a couple of weeks |
| 41 |
ago and the VB worked with my virtual win7 machine without problems. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
I am using 2.6.36-gentoo-r5. I have been searching the web and the VB |
| 44 |
forum pages but no luck yet. In the meantime I re-emerged VB without the |
| 45 |
pulseaudio USE flag and copied a working backup of .VirtualBox/ to my |
| 46 |
home directory; still get the same message (inaccessible). I will try an |
| 47 |
older backup later. |
