Description (last modified by )
Tried this on two computers:
- Host: Ubuntu Maverick x86_64 (worked fine in Lucid)
- Kernel: Linux ... 2.6.35-20-generic #29-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 3 14:55:28 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
- Two Machines: Core2Quad Q9450 (Desktop), Core i7 620LM (Laptop)
- Guest: Win7 x86_64
When starting the Guest the window opens, the progress bar stays at 0% and the whole computer freezes. There is no log entry whatsoever I could find.
This only happened after I added my user to the vboxusers group, it worked just fine without adding them.
Cannot really tell who is at fault here, but will assist in finding out who is at fault here if you tell me what to do.

Did I understand you correct: When the current user is not member of the group vboxusers you are still able to start virtual machines and the host does not freeze?
