Hi Larry,
here's is my current state of VB affairs. It's more a RFC, but it
contains everything to build that biest for the most prominent
distributions.
The new patch virtualbox-fix-ui-background-color.patch is an attempt
to deuglify the UI with certain color schemes.
Again, RFC stuff for you to look at.
Thanks,
Pete
- adjust patch virtualbox-fix-ui-background-color.patch to really
fix the background color messing...
- add patch to stop UI messing with Highlight Color for background
- apply fixes_for_qt5.13.patch for Qt versions >= 5.13.0 only
- Add setBadness('permissions-unauthorized-file',333) to rpmlintrc
- Remove suid attributes from all files
- add libgsoap version dependency >= 2.8.50 (recv_maxlength)
- Fix virtualbox wrapper script virtualbox-wrapper.sh to check
60-vboxdrv.rules in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d, not /etc/udev/rules.d
Logic is still flawed, until it doesn't take both locations into
account
- Add custom /etc/permission.d/virtualbox{,.paranoid} definitions
- Add compatibility symlink to keep old desktop links functional

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
