I had virtualbox running fine until I upgraded to 4.2.4.
Additionally my system is now headless.
I am using VNC to login to the machine and start virtual box from an xterm on my desktop.
I am getting the following error trying to start a previously created Windows XP VM as a regular user.
----
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine WindowsXP.
Cannot open host device '/devices/pci@0,0/pci-ide@1f,1/ide@0/sd@0,0:c,raw' for readonly access. Check the permissions of that device (VERR_ACCESS_DENIED).
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: Console
Interface: IConsole {db7ab4ca-2a3f-4183-9243-c1208da92392}

However if I start virtualbox as the root user, the VM starts fine.
Any ideas ?
Thanks
