System: openSUSE 13.1, KDE 4.13.1, kernel 3.11.10-7 desktop

I have installed virtualbox 4.2.18_OSE r88780 from the openSUSE Update repository (4.2.18-2.9.1-x86_64), in order to test openSUSE 13.2 M0. I have installed the following packages:

virtualbox virtualbox-guest-kmp-desktop virtualbox-guest-tools virtualbox-host-kmp-desktop virtualbox-qt

When I start the machine, dmesg outputs the following line: Failed to start LSB: VirtualBox Linux Additions

This command seems to fail: barrowhillfarm:~ # /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup Recompiling VirtualBox kernel module, NOT. It has been packaged. done

I'm not sure what the last message means, or how to get the guest additions running in the openSUSE 13.2 VM.

make sure you have installed current/matching kernel-devel for your kernel-desktop-3.11.10-7

It's already installed. Reading installed packages... 'kernel-devel' is already installed. No update candidate for 'kernel-devel-3.11.10-7.1.noarch'.

Hi I didn't do anything apart from install the 13.1 vm. The guest additions were there by default. Are you sure they aren't? e.g. View > Auto-resize guest display. Also it's really slow if they aren't. L x

That option is greyed out, as is Seamless mode.

You are trying to install the additions in the "guest" machine right? They get installed _after_ the "guest" machine is installed and get installed in the guest machine. Do not install them in the host machine.

Yes, I've set up the virtual machine and installed 13.2 on it. It's been a while since I played with virtualbox, but I remember having to install the guest additions on each guest machine. Whereas Lynn says that they were there by default. I'm tempted to to wipe the whole thing, reinstall virtualbox and then reinstall oS13.2, as I've already downloaded the 4.7GB .iso. - -- Bob Williams System: Linux 3.11.10-7-desktop Distro: openSUSE 13.1 (x86_64) with KDE Development Platform: 4.13.1 Uptime: 06:00am up 14:02, 4 users, load average: 0.02, 0.04, 0.05 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlN2Q6QACgkQ0Sr7eZJrmU63TwCfUeen4t9JoddIX+LTwlPlUdze tYwAn2N7r5feGqfKp+1Oiwne0yOneW7k =z4Y4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Ah, 13.2. So we could expect different behaviour to released versions. L x -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Sorry, I'm probably not being clear. The host machine is running 13.1, the guest is 13.2. I can't be the only person testing 13.2 in a VM.

I really think not. I have factory in a vb w/o problems, but did have an instance where the screen was not what it should be. I reinstalled the kernel +devel and reinstalled the additions and recovered the entire screen...... ps: consider a little trimming of horrendous quoting :^( -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
