I am on Arch using VirtualBox from community repo and Genymotion from AUR. Whenever i want to start a virtual device it says:
Unable to load VirtualBox engine.
Make sure that it is properly installed before starting Genymotion.
For more information please refer to: https://cloud.genymotion.com/page/faq/#vbox
I've already reinstalled everything nothing seems to work.
When i use
#vboxreload
"vboxnetadp vboxnetflt vboxpci vboxdrv" are loaded and genymotion works for this session until i reboot the system.
I use a virtualbox.conf at /etc/modules-load.d/ to load "vboxnetadp vboxnetflt vboxpci vboxdrv".
$cat /etc/modules-load.d/virtualbox.conf
vboxdrv\nvboxnetflt\nvboxnetadp\nvboxpci
I'm not a linux crack but I thought /etc/modules-load.d/virtualbox.conf would automatically load the modules - so i do not need to use #vboxreload after each reboot?
Think of it as you are running mint in a virtual box container, now to run the gennymotion emulators you need to install the virtual box, but this is very tideous are bad idea, it is recomended that you do a full OS install.
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
