[Bug 567435] New: Virtualbox kernel modules won't load with version 3.1.0
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=567435 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=567435#c0 Summary: Virtualbox kernel modules won't load with version 3.1.0 Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: norbert.jurkeit@web.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; de; rv:1.9.1.6) Gecko/20091201 SUSE/3.5.6-1.1.1 Firefox/3.5.6 When using the newest Virtualbox version 3.1.0 from the Build Service, kernel module vboxdrv.ko is correctly loaded on the host, but not vboxnetadp.ko and vboxnetflt.ko. As a result, no networking is available. Trying to load these 2 modules manually with modprobe results in an error message stating "Invalid module format". The problem seems to be caused by duplicate symbols in vboxdrv.ko and vboxguest.ko, which fools depmod and causes wrong modules to be loaded. After removing file vboxguest.ko (and also vboxvfs.ko and vboxvideo.ko, which are neither needed on a host) and running depmod again, everything worked fine. The easiest solution is probably to split package virtualbox-ose-kmp-* into 2 separate packages for hosts and guests. Surprisingly the problem was only observed on a 32 bit, but not on a 64 bit host.
