Hi,

Please see relevant Public Bugtracker Ticket - https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/19644

Looking at the latest entries suggests the latest 6.1 Test Builds may provide an interim solution for Kernel 5.8 users.

[Platypus]

I can confirm the latest development version works fine: https://www.virtualbox.org/download/tes ... _amd64.run

[Platypus]

Had to do a rollback on Leap. The machine froze or went in a reboot loop. Not sure if it was related to the kernel or virtualbox.

On Tumbleweed the dev version of VirtualBox runs stable with kernel 5.8. Not sure what is making the difference.

[diogomurta]

After install dev version "6.1.97r140059", works for me.

I got it partly working on Tubleweed with the latest version from the Virtualization repository.
Some idiotic stupid forum configuration does not allow me to post links. Just google

Code: Select all

repositories/Virtualization/Kernel_stable_standard

The openSuSE build service seems broken (again) and the repository meta data was not up to date. I just downloaded the rpms manually.

It requires the latest standard kernel, so you also have to add the repository. Google

Some idiotic stupid forum configuration does not allow me to post links.

That idiotic stupid forum configuration also keeps the forum from being flooded and ruined by spammers, so it's not that idiotic and stupid when one thinks about it or asks nicely why it's there, except to those who want to post spam later....

I'd certainly be willing to run a test build. I'm seeing references to 6.1.13 and 6.1.97. But can't seem to get any links to work. So for now my Fedora installation of 6.1.2 with 5.8.4 kernel is dead. Thankfully, I can afford to wait. But I'd be glad to test in lieu of 6.1.14.

@btaroli, I tried a random link on test builds 'Linux EL8 64-bit" and got a download starting. It was a .rpm file. 'Linux 64-bit" was a .run. What is happening when you click them?

[filippos]

OK it was a fast response!!!

Everything is fine again under new version 6.1.13_k5.8.4_1

[scottgus1]

Great! Glad you're up and running.

If Linux sometimes forgets how to uninstall programs like Windows does when it needs the msi file, Keep hold of that installer. Test build installers get deleted off the website when the next regular build comes out.

How silly of me. I'd never been to that wiki page! (sigh) Checking it out now, and pulling 6.1.13.

[btaroli]

Looks to have a regression for HiDPI, but otherwise seems to be running on Fedora 32 (5.8.4).

[Pernat1y]

Any ETA on when it will be released (as 6.1.14, I assume)?
