vagrant up

Sorry, Vagrant uses Virtualbox in ways we can't predict, so we don't support Vagrant-modified Virtualbox. You'll have to ask them.

Sorry, post was not actually about vagrant, it was just a means of easy setup of traceable vm.
I am told that this is a duplicate of https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/19004 ... num_hist=2 so problem is there.
