VirtualBox in 9.3-RELEASE

[Antoine Delvaux]

Hello,

I've been using VirtualBox for 2 years under 9.1 and 9.2 and it was working pretty well.  About a week ago I upgraded to 9.3-RELEASE and since then VirtualBox refuses to run and crashes my server as soon as I start a VM.

I'm using version 4.3.12 coming from the pkg repository.  All my packages are up to date.  I'm unable to find any information about the crash I face as my server/host is rebooting a few seconds after I try to launch any VM.

I usually launch the VM with the VBoxHeadless utility, but if I use VirtualBox through an ssh X11 session, the behavior is the same (although I can see and use the VirtualBox window before launching any VM).

I'm unsure where to look for any issues in my configuration.  I've even re-installed my server only using binary packages to see if I hadn't a problematic old kernel module or library installed, but that didn't change anything.  Is the VirtualBox binary package known to be broken?  Would trying to compile the VirtualBox port help here?  Should I be using the new pkg repository for NEW_X_ORG even though my FreeBSD server is not running any X session itself?

Any help would be much appreciated here as I'm getting lost at what to try.

Thanks,

Antoine.
