Please install the GNU Compiler? (Suse 11.1 Guest)

unreal · Post by **unreal** » 10. Jun 2009, 19:49

Hi,
I have an Problem with the Guest Additions.
My Host is a Netbook (NC10) running Windows XP.
The Guest ist Suse 11.1, VirtualBox ist updated (2.2.4).

When i try to install the Guest additions, i get the following error:

Code: Select all

linux-d2ed:/media/VBOXADDITIONS_2.2.4_47978 # sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing VirtualBox 2.2.4 Guest Additions for Linux installation..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................
VirtualBox 2.2.4 Guest Additions installation
Please install the GNU compiler.
This system does not seem to have support for OpenGL direct rendering.
VirtualBox requires Linux 2.6.27 or later for this.  Please see the log
file /var/log/vboxadd-install.log if your guest uses Linux 2.6.27 and you still see this message.
Problems were found which would prevent the Guest Additions from installing.
Please correct these problems and try again.

i already did
zypper in linux-kernel-headers kernel-source kernel-syms gcc make

i had an kernel-header-whatever error before.
Can anyone help me?
I think the solution is very easy, i just don't know it

Thanks!

I already tried from the HOWTO:

Code: Select all

linux-d2ed:/media/VBOXADDITIONS_2.2.4_47978 # apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic
Lese Paketlisten... Fertig
Erzeuge Abhängigkeitsbaum... Fertig
E: Konnte Paket build-essential nicht finden
linux-d2ed:/media/VBOXADDITIONS_2.2.4_47978 # yum install binutils gcc make patch libgomp glibc-headers glibc-devel kernel-headers kernel-devel
bash: yum: command not found

i'll try to translate the error messages:

Code: Select all

linux-d2ed:/media/VBOXADDITIONS_2.2.4_47978 # apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic

Not sure if this is correct for suse but you could try it.
Try first doing
apt-get update
then retry
apt-get install build-essentail

thanks for your answer!
i get some errors when executing apt-get update:

Well I think there is no such package as build-essential in Suse those really are for debian/ubuntu derivatives.
Try
zypper install g++ and or gcc++
And see if something like that exists. Also look in the log file and see if you have a more exact match there.

Post by **fixedwheel** » 11. Jun 2009, 00:24

gcc is needed if any - not g++ or gcc++

but i think the problem is elsewhere

unreal wrote: i already did
zypper in linux-kernel-headers kernel-source kernel-syms gcc make

could you have a look if these are installed?
i guess that yast still exists in Suse (the latest i have touched was a 10.0 IIRC) so call yast and navigate to software ...

unreal wrote:i had an kernel-header-whatever error before.

could be a version number mismatch between the installed kernel and headers. Have a look, yast -> software

This is what I installed and it works fine in OpenSUSE 11.1

Code: Select all

zypper install make gcc  gcc-c++ kernel-source kernel-syms

there is a mismatch, install kernel-headers with the same version number as the kernel

Forget it. For Suse linux-kernel-headers must not have same version. Its another package as for Debian/Ubuntu.

ok, I didn't know.

Suse is strange, i guess ... AFAIK not only Debian/Ubuntu kernel and header version have to match, applies with Redhat/fedora too

I think I see what your problem is and one that bite me before. Remove the CD from the repository list and then it will look at the internet for your files. Be sure to update your OS too.
