vboxclient the virtualbox kernel service is not running
#20
(12-01-2015, 08:55 PM)misko_2083 link Wrote: If this appears when you run LL on a real hardware, it is because the script that runs VboxClient, in case when Vbox kernel module isn't detected sends a notification message.
Fix is next:
Run this in terminal (providing a sudo password)
Code:
gksudo leafpad /etc/X11/Xsession.d/98vboxadd-xclient
find the line
Code:
notify-send "VBoxClient: the VirtualBox kernel service is not running.  Exiting."
Now change notify-send to echo
Code:
  echo "VBoxClient: the VirtualBox kernel service is not running.  Exiting."
And save the file.
On next reboot it will not appear again.

I teach people everything I know, and they still don't know anything - may the farce be with you
