Description:
Start VirtualBox accompanied with "warning: `VirtualBox' uses 32-bit capabilities (legacy support in use)" message in dmesg.
Windows XP guest don't reboot only hard reset. Shutdown work fine.
I have tried rebuild VirtualBox modules with 'rc.d sesup vboxdrv' command but it not helped.

community/virtualbox 4.1.0-2.1
core/kernel26 2.6.39.3-1
core/kernel26-headers 2.6.39.3-1
* config and/or log files etc.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start VirtualBox from apps menu
2. dmesg command in terminal.
   dmesg.log (60.1 KiB)
   VBoxSVC.log (0.8 KiB)
   compreg.dat (1.2 KiB)

doesn't matter that. some files inside ~/.VirtualBox or where the location is for you cannot be accessed

doesn't matter, read the link that i gave you. can be ignored

I read that topic, but there is no answer. What exactly do you want me to see in that topic?
Message appear after start /usr/bin/VirtualBox with clean install VB (empty config dir in home) and without any VM.
I don't run 32-bit apps (see ps aux - http://pastebin.com/9P0RcK0F).

Searching with Google on the error you get, gives some results of other Distro's giving the error. It's harmless. It comes from libpcap.

Comment by Artem A Klevtsov (unikum) - Sunday, 07 August 2011, 12:44 GMT
I'm not sure that it's harmless because I have some trouble with Windows guest. All the more so, that before this there was no.
However, thank you. I will look further if here it is not considered a bug.

is not related to that. maybe you changed configuration of the vm for APIC.

i do have a xp vm and works fine
