I downloaded http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=9753 tar ball and followed the http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR#Getting_started and installed everything fine. Now when I went to start the 'vboxdrv' it said it could not be found: ############################################## [code][root@ghost ~]# /etc/rc.d/vboxdrv start -bash: /etc/rc.d/vboxdrv: No such file or directory[/code] ############################################## I show that the installation of VirtualBox did not get any errors: ############################################## [code][root@ghost ~]# pacman -Qs virtualbox local/virtualbox_bin 3.1.6-1 Powerful x86 virtualization (Personal Use Binaries Edition).[/code] ############################################## Now when I try to start VirtualBox I get the following error: ############################################## [code][cmennens@ghost virtualbox_bin]$ VirtualBox VirtualBox: supR3HardenedMainGetTrustedMain: dlopen("/opt/VirtualBox/VirtualBox.so",) failed: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory[/code] ############################################## Below is what I see after I downloaded the Tarball and ran 'makepkg -s' against it: ############################################## [code][cmennens@ghost builds]$ ls -l total 8 drwxr-xr-x 4 cmennens users 4096 Apr 14 09:37 virtualbox_bin -rw-r--r-- 1 cmennens users 3063 Apr 14 09:15 virtualbox_bin.tar.gz [cmennens@ghost builds]$ cd virtualbox_bin [cmennens@ghost virtualbox_bin]$ ls -l total 91336 drwxr-xr-x 6 cmennens users 4096 Apr 14 09:18 pkg -rw-r--r-- 1 cmennens users 4694 Jan 1 1970 PKGBUILD drwxr-xr-x 2 cmennens users 4096 Mar 25 15:10 src -rw-r--r-- 1 cmennens users 113 Jan 1 1970 vbox_build_module -rw-r--r-- 1 cmennens users 3269 Jan 1 1970 vbox.install -rw-r--r-- 1 cmennens users 51834320 Mar 25 15:44 VirtualBox-3.1.6-59338-Linux_amd64.run -rw-r--r-- 1 cmennens users 41664600 Apr 14 09:18 virtualbox_bin-3.1.6-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz[/code] ############################################## I installed with 'pacman -U' the 'tar.xz' file that was created today. It went fine with no errors and all dependencies installed. Now I can't figure out how to start the program because it's not in /etc/rc.d/... What did I do wrong or how do I fix it :(
