installing ose virtualbox
Tried to install and use VirtualBox with no sucess. Got the following message, '-1908 VERR VM DRIVER NOT ACCESSIBLE' . I have tried the solution for Ubuntu 7.10 regarding creating a group user for my user partition with no effect, possibly because it's on a different partition. I have tried to gather all the nesecary libraries etc, but no result. Tried to build it from a tar ball but it gets almost there on the configure phase and tells me to 'enjoy' but stalls on the 'make' section.
Prior to telling me to 'enjoy' it says: cd ./out/linux.x86/release/bin/src make However, there appears to be no target despite updating src in the package handler in Suse, amoungst others. Any ideas? |
Is your problem with installing VirtualBox itself, or are you having a problem installing Linux inside a VirtualBox? Also, are you installing Linux inside a VirtualBox running on Linux or some other OS?

Had similair problems..
Found I was trying to install two versions of Virtualbox ....I was doing the generic version then I tryed putting 26.3 on this way conflict.... As soon as I removed the 26.3 version all these problems went away... I was thinking if I just add all the versions I will be covered on updates , but the system doesn't see it that way it doesn't keep the newest version and delete the older versions.... I'm an idiot .. I see on this site all the time running software with the kernel may conflict and may need to uninstall and go with different version..... later good luck hope that helps... |
virtualbox installation
My problem is running VirtualBox on a Linux system (Suze10.3/Mandriva8 and Debian etch). It installs but seemingly only partially and when it comes to run it it records the '-1908 VERR VM DRIVER NOT ACEESSIBLE' error. This despite upgreading the Kernel and installing the relative libraries. I have got a number of install instructions and none, as yet appear to work. As for conficts, mentioned in the previous reply, these should not exist if you have uninstalled a version of Vbox even if others exist in the home partition, if you specify which you want to install- any further ideas/comments?
