Virtualbox 2.1.0 on Hardy Heron. Vbox won't start. [Solved]
Greetings, I am getting an error when I try to start VirtualBox:
I have read the faq, it advised me to install a couple of font related packages, but these packages are already installed. I tried reinstalling libqt4-core, libqt4-gui, and virtualbox several times but this did not resolve the issue. I have also tried launching vbox as root and I still get this same message. Any help would be appreciated!

None of the other posts were of help to me.
It turns out I had some residual qt4 packages from a kde4 repository that was turned off in synaptic/apt. This lead to a mismatch between the libqt4-gui and libqt4-core (these came from the regular hardy repos) packages, and the rest of the qt4... files on my system (they came from a kde4 repo). I removed the qt4 packages (including residual configs) from the kde4 repo, then reinstalled the libqt4-gui and libqt4-core packages. This solved the problem.
Hope this helps someone else.
