Host SMBus controller is not enabled

I have maked a backup from my VMWare Virtual Machine. I have imported it into the source folder.

At the first time i can start the VM, it shows me the error, but i can start it. But when i reboot the VM, the error shows me, but the VM dont start.

shows to me and the VM dont start, error :

"piix4_smbus 0000:00:007.3" Host SmBus controller not enabled!"

I have tried to add into the blacklist.conf file this line : blacklist i2c-piix4

But it still dont works.

Solution

  • Have you tried changing the dash in blacklist i2c-piix4 to an underscore, like blacklist i2c_piix4? That may also solve the problem.
