Re: Starting VirtualBox kernel modules failed (modprobe vbox
Bridged networking works? That's odd, that module is responsible for it. Have you tried to rebuild the modules with 'sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup', or with dkms? Do you even have DKMS installed?

sorry - don't use bridged I use NAT, what i use works fine, since I don't use bridged I didn't know it wasn't working
yes dkms is installed but is provided by a 3rd party (Packman, not openSuse)
regards,

These third-part DKMS packages don't really work for openSUSE.

Re: Starting VirtualBox kernel modules failed (modprobe vbox
posted to openSuse forum and got this reply:
"Since some time I've also tested the DKMS package from Pacman, I noticed some problems with it, I think it's loaded loaded too late in the boot process. I changed it to load at boot in the runtime level editor in yast>system, switch to expert view and toggle dkms_autoinstaller to be started at boot."
