2586,Virtualbox hangs on start in Ubuntu 8.10,Steve,,"I tried several different packages from the closed source release, and tried compiling from source.  All of them give me the same error.  When I start Virtualbox from the terminal with ""./VirtualBox"", 100% of my CPU is taken up and there is no output.  There is no VBox.log file.  

I did an strace and discovered that it was repeating the same few lines over and over:
{{{
select(8, [7], [], NULL, NULL)          = 1 (in [7])
read(7, ""\241\10\324\3300\0 \0053\1",defect,closed,other,VirtualBox 2.0.4,duplicate,ubuntu 8.10 hang,,other,Linux
