With the update of apparmor v2.7.102 from today morning (at least that was when it popped up to me, beeing in GMT+2) starting (at least windows 2008r2) virtual machines in virtualbox locks up the system completely! Hardware reset required (no CTRL+ALT+F1 etc available any more)!
Tried the following:
a) Uninstalled VirtualBox 4.1.16, rebooted, installed 4.1.12 from the universe repositories - same issue - so is not related to latest Oracle release of VirtualBox.
b) Tried using Ubuntu 2D desktop environment because I feared it was a kind of Unity lockup - same issue - so does not seem to be Unity related.
The only way I could resolve the issue was:
sudo apt-get purge apparmor
reboot
I was hit in a sudden by this bug after shutting down my laptop, leaving to office and there I could not start any virtual machine any more which worked until in the morning. Thinking of possible changes I remembered that I installed an update popping up right before shutting down.
The problem is for me reproducable as soon as I reinstall apparmor and reboot.
Trying to start any of the Windows 2008r2 virtual machines (don't know if occurs also with other guests, I only have Win2008r2 VMs) - after a few seconds everything locks up.
