[opensuse] 11.0 Beta 3, kernel source install (helps if I include the error)
Listmates, Ran into an issue installing vbox linux additions on 11 beta3. Looks like the kernel source wasn't fully configured on install. Here is the error received attempting to compile to vbox LinuxAdditions reproduced here with "make modules_prepare".

That's similar to the one I'm getting compiling a driver for 10.3 64bit. No help on here as yet. I live in hope. The problem seems to be suse specific. I used the virtualbox binary and have had no problems at all with that. John -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

There is just one kernel-source, which should fit all released kernels. So get it configured first with make cloneconfig After that, you can do "make prepare" or "make modules_prepare" It is explained in /usr/src/linux/README.SUSE in the section "BUILDING ADDITIONAL (EXTERNAL) MODULES" Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I had the same problem. I solved mine by loading the kernel source during install or by making sure I was selecting the kernel source from the DVD after installation. I found that if adding the kernel source after installation YAST would try to add the latest factory kernel source, but not upgrade the kernel. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
