Is the "user" boinc runs as in the vboxusers" group? |
| 2 |
By default, boinc runs as a non-root (daemon?) user and if its group is not |
| 3 |
in the vboxusers group, |
| 4 |
VirtualBox will not start or run for the user. |

|

The recommended workaround is to run boinc as a real user (generally "you") |
| 7 |
so |
| 8 |
that things operate properly. Additionally, the actual way that the cernvm |
| 9 |
runs can change "just a bit" and it will upset the balance of getting VBox |
| 10 |
to run |
| 11 |
boinc tasks. |
