VirtualBox error Permission denied [Solved]

[synesius]

After installing VirtualBox in Sabayon 9 KDE I get the "Permission denied" error when I try to run "VirtualBox"

However, the modules are installed -

lsmod | grep vbox
vboxnetadp 17206 0
vboxnetflt 13197 0
vboxdrv 1759133 2 vboxnetadp,vboxnetflt

and user is a member of the vbxusers group -

groups
lp wheel uucp console audio cdrom video cdrw usb users pulse pulse-access lpadmin portage messagebus plugdev scanner vboxusers vboxguest entropy john polkituser

The file permissions look OK
# ls -la /opt/bin/VirtualBox
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Sep 8 11:42 /opt/bin/VirtualBox -> /opt/VirtualBox/VBox.sh


Oddly enough I CAN run VirtualBox perfectly successfully, including creating and running VDIs as Root by running

"/opt/bin/VirtualBox"

but, naturally I want to run it as a plain User.

I would be grateful for any help - especially for any help that works!

Reinstalling VirtualBox as per

https://wiki.sabayon.org/index.php?titl ... Virtualbox

seems to solve this one too.

Thank.
