After applying Kernel updates virtualbox does not work because it is not updated for the newer Kernel. While using the VirtualBox from OBS works, if VirtualBox is to be included with on the DVD then updates for it need to be released alongside Kernel updates. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I was getting the exact message Kresten posted. The issue is the kernel version the virtualbox is built against and nothing more. This is similar to bug # 407408 notice the resolution in that case was: " ------- Comment #6 From Reinhard Max 2008-07-28 10:08:38 MDT [reply] ------- Ah - I had to change the package source for 11.0 from "openSUSE:11.0" to "openSUSE:11.0:Update", which doesn't seem to be possible from the web frontend. Now the zaptel kernel packages are built against 2.6.25.11-0.1 ." I.e. this is a very easy fix. If a package is shipped with openSUSE that has a kernel module it ***MUST*** be updated with any kernel updates. Having to switch to the package in OBS *IS NOT* an acceptable solution. So while the VirtualBox in OBS apparantly has never had an issue, an update for the VirtualBox that shipped with the DVD must be issued. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
