[SOLVED] VBox not working after Kernelupdate

Hello,

after updating form 4.6.3 to 4.6.4, Virtualbox won't start anymore.

maikeloni@archian ~ % virtualbox
VirtualBox: supR3HardenedMainGetTrustedMain: dlopen("/usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox.so",) failed: libQt5X11Extras.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I suppose, it has somethin to do with the fact, that I was not able to update the linux-headers:

maikeloni@archian ~ % sudo pacman -S linux-headers
Warnung: linux-headers-4.6.4-1 ist aktuell -- Reinstalliere

Anyone an idea, how to fix that and install linux-headers?

I had the same issue yesterday. Check if qt5 is installed, mine was gone. I simply did a uninstall and installed virtualbox again. Now it works, but my dark theme is not working (ARC) in the application. But virtualbox works.


I possess a device, in my pocket, that is capable of accessing the entirety of information known to man.
I use it to look at funny pictures of cats and to argue with strangers.

Re: [SOLVED] VBox not working after Kernelupdate

Uninstalling and installing virtualbox did not help.

qt5-base and some other qt5 packages are installed. Don't really konw, which qt5 package you mean.

Ok, didn't know if the qt5 was an issue on my side, but my problem seemed som how related to your. But if a reinstall didn't help i dont know.

Re: [SOLVED] VBox not working after Kernelupdate

Installing qt5-x11extras might help. Wiki just updated recently.

Re: [SOLVED] VBox not working after Kernelupdate

After installing qt5-x11extras, virtualbox starts.

Never thought that this could be the solution.

Anyway, linux-headers update still not work ... until now that's not a problem, but might be in the future ...

For now, this issue is solved, thanks to dockland and mrlamud!

And next time, watch what pacman tells you. It told you about the new optdep. You ignore it at your own peril.

The same happened to me, in this morning, after updating, virtualbox won't start anymore. No problems with my linux-headers, 4.6.4-1-ARCH. After reinstalling qt5-x11extras, virtualbox starts.

Problem is that the dep is marked as optional, but it seems it's actually needed... sad when using a pure GTK environment.

Re: [SOLVED] VBox not working after Kernelupdate

@KaradocV but it isn't actually needed: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Vi … _front-end , having a configuration GUI is not a necessary part of many virtualbox setups
