No, I have never used until today. Which is why I am posting back.

Today I used the AUR for the 1st time in my Arch experience & creating
the VirtualBox package was fine. 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:

##############################################

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 :(
