app-emulation/virtualbox-6.1.34-r6 seems to work, have to completely revert to be sure
At is defnitely an issue with the vbox version, as after downgrading vbox 6.1.34-r6 and vbox extpack to 6.1.34 vms are working again
Can you make sure you are using the latest kernel modules? virtualbox 6.1.36 cannot start virtual machines with virtualbox 6.1.34 kernel modules. Try `dmesg | grep vboxdrv` and see if you get a line like this: [ 7.756812] vboxdrv: Successfully loaded version 6.1.36 r152435 (interface 0x00320000 Also please attach the output of `emerge --info`
cat /sys/module/vbox*/version 6.1.36 r152435 (0x00320000) 6.1.36 r152435 ((0xA2CDe001U)) 6.1.36 r152435 ((0xA2CDe001U)) Strangely with this modules it works using virtualbox 6.1.34
