# Run virtualbox in a container
#
# docker run -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
# docker run -d \
# -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
# -e DISPLAY=unix$DISPLAY \
# --privileged \
# --name virtualbox \
# jess/virtualbox
#
# On first run it will throw an error that you need to
# recompile the kernel module with: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
#
# Here is how you get it to work:
# copy the files you need for the module from the container that
# is currently running to your host
#
# first the script:
# docker cp virtualbox:/etc/init.d/vboxdrv .
#
# then the src:
# docker cp virtualbox:/usr/src/vboxhost-4.3.28 /usr/src/
#
# then the share
# cp virtualbox:/usr/share/virtualbox /usr/share
#
# then run the script:
# ./vboxdrv setup
#
# it will recompile the module, you can then see it in lsmod
#
# then you can remove all the shit you copied
# rm -rf /usr/src/vboxhost*
# rm -rf /usr/share/virtualbox
# rm vboxdrv
