oh btw im new here
Which version of VirtualBox is that? OSE or PUEL?
You don’t compile the module in the OSE version.
- btw welcome to the forum!
thanks for the answer that was fat. that ose version! i looked in package manager and i dont have puel one, where should i get it ?
I didn’t say that. I just explained why you got this error message. If you installed it properly, your VirtualBox version should be ready to use. You should just be member of the vboxusers group. I don’t know if it happens automatically (I use the PUEL version). If you need USB support, you should use the PUEL version.
i am a member of vboxusers group
- uninstall the OSE version.
- Install the VirtualBox repository:
**zypper ar http: //download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/opensuse/11.3/ virtualbox
** - refresh the packages list for that repository
zypper refresh -r virtualbox - Then install the package
zypper in VirtualBox-3.2
- remove the space after http:
