Hey! I'm trying to go through the setup but it says it can't detect Virtualbox on my pc, what could be the issue?

Did you put the right directory in for virtual box? And if you have VMware, that's not supported. If not, reinstall the mod.

I installed it from my package manager, and as I stated, VirtualBox

And what's solus?

Ah, I've never heard of that, so I don't know. Sorry!

What is the VirtualBox version?

Try opening a terminal and entering „vboxwebsrv“, does anything happen?

e404nnf@e404nnf-g41smpt  ~  vboxwebsrv /usr/bin/vboxwebsrv: line 138: /usr/lib/virtualbox/vboxwebsrv: No such file or directory
this happens

I guess this is an issue with how solus installs virtualbox, since the symlink /usr/bin/vboxwebsrv (which this mod uses) leads to a nonexistent file.

i downloaded a Debian image of VirtualBox from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_6_1 and then extracted the needed binary, i think closing this would be fine now
