Description M. B. 2013-09-06 21:37:11 UTC
Virtualbox fails to start my VM with the new kernel 3.11.0. Apparently my bridged network interface is responsible for that.

The error i see:
Failed to open/create the internal network 'HostInterfaceNetworking-vboxnet0' (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND).
Failed to attach the network LUN (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND).

Error Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component:
Console Interface: IConsole {db7ab4ca-2a3f-4183-9243-c1208da92392}

Apperently this issue is resolved in 4.2.18:

Reproducible: Always

The only difference between this patch and the one for app-emulation/virtualbox itself is the pathname.

I have been using the patches as provided above since Aug 10; I had been using sys-kernel/git-sources until the official kernel 3.11.0 release.  The app-emulation/virtualbox and app-emulation/virtualbox-modules ebuilds do not call epatch_user, so I had to do these patches in a local overlay.

I am not affiliated with Oracle or the VirtualBox development team, but the patch is direct from upstream SVN.

A bump to 4.2.18 would be more appropriate than having the svn fixes around

Agreed; I guess I was offering those patches to save someone else the legwork if they needed a more immediate fix.
Comment 6 DaggyStyle 2013-09-07 18:06:32 UTC
or better yet, bump version to 4.2.18 which is out already.
Comment 7 Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-09-08 12:40:16 UTC
virtualbox-4.2.18 is in the tree.
