13820,Possible Bug With Linux Host and Broadwell CPU's (SMAP feature),tascheitrum,,"I received a Dell latitude e7450 (Broadwell CPU) and as noted in my forum post, Virtualbox Hangs at ""0% Starting Virtual Machine"".  According to the log files it never actually gets to the boot sequence.

I noticed another person with a Broadwell CPU was having the same problem here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/581301/virtualbox-stuck-on-starting-virtual-machine/583628

And that leads me to believe that there may be a bug in Virtualbox on Linux Hosts and Broadwell CPU's.

To be clear, I enabled Virtualization support in my bios, did a fresh install of Mint 17.1, only installed virtualbox and added my user to vboxusers and it will not boot.  If I reboot and load my Windows 7 Partition, Virtualbox works just fine, so the hardware is capable of virtualization, and it works, just not with a Linux host. 

I've attached logs, hopefully they shed some light on the issue!",defect,closed,host support,VirtualBox 4.3.20,fixed,,,Linux,Linux
