If you are using tumbleweed repo and you want to use also vbox,
basically you have two options :
1, (as John suggest)
remove old virtualbox provided by openSUSE
add repo provided by oracle
http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/opensuse/11.4/
and install vbox from oracle repo, kernel modules needed for proper
vbox run, will be built automatically
2,
add repo provided by openSUSE (vbox build against Tumbleweed):
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=Virtualization%3AVirtualBox_...
and install vbox from it (kmp modules are already built here) ...
if you are interested why was vbox dropped from tumbleweed repo, read
this thread:

Hello all,
I'm using tumbleweed and would like to install virtualbox, however it depends on virtualbox-host-kmp-desktop version 4.0.4_k2.6.37.1_1.2-1.6.1 which in turn depends on kernel-desktop-base version 2.6.37.6-0.5.1. However tumbleweed has kernel-desktop version 2.6.39.3-37.1 which means I'd need to downgrade my kernel to use virtualbox. Could tumbleweed provide a version of virtualbox for the newer kernels?
