Mhh works fine here. This is what I do (warning: summarized by AI):
VirtualBox installation on CachyOS / Arch
1. Install VirtualBox and host modules
sudo pacman -S virtualbox virtualbox-host-dkms
2. Install guest components
sudo pacman -S virtualbox-guest-iso virtualbox-guest-utils
3. (Optional) Oracle Extension Pack
yay -S virtualbox-ext-oracle
4. (Optional) Windows app launcher integration
sudo yay -S vbox-windows-app-launcher-git
5. Add your user to vboxusers
sudo gpasswd -a $USER vboxusers
6. Load the VirtualBox kernel module
sudo modprobe vboxdrv
Troubleshooting
-
Ensure linux-headers for your running kernel is installed.
-
After kernel or VirtualBox updates, run: sudo vboxreload
