vboxheadless does not listen on VRDE port

vboxheadless in virtualbox is really good, but it does not report error messages very well. If you see it running but does not listen on the VRDE port, there is a chance that you have the following issue:

This supposes that your host is Linux.

Your host may have loaded the linux KVM modules, which conflicts the VirtualBox.  Do a "lsmod" to see whether you have the following modules installed:


 kvm_intel
 kvm

If you do, "rmmod" them. To make it permanent, put them in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
