cant start vboxdrv, no permission

Pluribootent · 06-03-2010, 11:03 AM

Im running a fresh Slackware64-install, did alienbob's multilib, managed to compile and install virtualbox-ose + kernel-module

I can modprobe vboxdrv as root sucessfully and start my VBox as normal user, but after reboot of course id have to modprobe it again.

If I try to start vboxdrv like this:

Code:

/etc/rc.d/rc.vboxdrv start

... or stop or setup ...
I get:

Code:

bash: /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxdrv: Permission denied

Whats wrong?

Do you have root privileges and is the script executable?
