hi i just downloaded and installed sun vm from this link :

http://www.sun.com/software/products/vi ... /index.jsp

then once installed i made a machine and when i go into settings, it comes up with this:


Could not load the Host USB Proxy Service (VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND). The service might be not installed on the host computer.


Result Code:
0x00004005
Component:
Host
Interface:
IHost {81729c26-1aec-46f5-b7c0-cc7364738fdb}
Callee:
IMachine {f95c0793-7737-49a1-85d9-6da81097173b}

so i;m guessing i didnt install the full thing and missing some parts.... any one can help? but theres a bigger problem, when i start the machine this error comes up:


The VirtualBox kernel driver is not accessible to the current user. Make sure that the user has write permissions for /dev/vboxdrv by adding them to the vboxusers groups. You will need to logout for the change to take effect..
VBox status code: -1909 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_ACCESSIBLE).


Result Code:
0x80004005
Component:
Console
Interface:
IConsole {d5a1cbda-f5d7-4824-9afe-d640c94c7dcf}

so i really need your help.. i just wanted to seemlessly intergratye windows xp into ubuntu.

USB part, read the VirtualBox FAQ. Other message, read the error and do what it says.

Also, 1.6.6 is released. Please go to www.virtualbox.org instead of the Sun site and download the latest version. There is now also a repository again.
