Hi Larry,
here we go..
this version of VB is tested successfully with TW and 15.0, builds
with 42.3, 15.0, 15.0 with Kernel:stable, 15.1, TW, and behaves
properly autostart-wise.
So it's good to go from my POV.
Cheers,
Pete
- separate vboxautostart.sh from vboxdrv.sh
- add vboxautostart.service
- clean up vboxdrv.sh
- fix build of vboxvideo kernel module by replacing the relative
drm include patch with an absolute include path (with sed)
- build vboxvideo kernel module for openSUSE >= 15.0
- apply fixes_for_Leap15.1.patch conditionally only
- add minimal patch fixes_for_Leap42.3.patch to build for 42.3
- fix path typo: %{_datadir}/pixmaps/virtalbox
-> %{_datadir}/pixmaps/virtualbox

Prerequisites
=============
Users, that want to use the VirtualBox autostart feature, have to be
members of the vboxusers group.
E.g.:
sudo usermod -aG vboxusers USERNAME
Preparation
===========
For each autostart user, add a section in /etc/vbox/autostart.cfg:
USERNAME = {
allow = true
}
Users work
==========
The *first* time a user configures autostart, the command:
VBoxManage setproperty autostartdbpath /etc/vbox
needs to be run.
Note: The autostart options are stored in the /etc/vbox file, and in the
VM itself. If moving a VM, these options may need to be set again.
Prepare a VM to start automatically:
VBoxManage modifyvm <uuid|vmname> --autostart-enabled <on|off>
Choose a shut down mode:
VBoxManage modifyvm <uuid|vmname> --autostop-type <disabled|savestate|poweroff|acpishutdown>
Restart the vboxdrv service to start the VMs in question
sudo service vboxdrv restart
