So i followed the instructions to install virtualbox and added myself to the vboxusers group, but i cant run VMs as a standard user. The GUI message says "VirtualBox kernel driver is not accessible, permission problem" the VM log says "ERROR [COM]: aRC=E ACCESSDENIED (0x80070005) aText={The console is not powered up}"
Someone on mastodon mentioned /dev/vboxdrv and that file is "crw-rw---- root vboxusers". There is also a file /dev/vboxdrvu which is "crw-rw-rw- root root" but changing that to root vboxusers with chown didnt work.
I can run VMs as root just fine. Any thoughts?
Edit: new to NixOS and really enjoying it so far
Edit 2: SOLVED: I had "virtualbox" as a package under "envoronment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [" and wasnt supposed too.
Nope, i have all those lines as single line configs at the bottom of my configuration.nix and still no joy.
