I was obviously confused by the fact that the modules vboxadd and vboxvfs are being distributed within the rpm virtualbox-ose-kmp-default, which contains the necessary kernel module vboxdrv for the HOST system. So there was no doubt to me that these modules must be loaded in the host system, too. Also a short look into /usr/share/doc/packages/README.SUSE did not clarify my wrong impression. After the loading of these modules failed in the host system, I did not even try to install the Guest Additions on my Windows guest system. Now I did and everything works as expected. the team responsible for packaging and documenting the rpm's. -- 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.

Is this really a vbox virtual machine? could you post modinfo for all of the vbox modules? if there is information missing which module is for the host and which for the guest, it could be easily added there. -- 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.
