openSUSE 12.1/12.2 Guest Additions

Post by jonesyp »

Hello,

Would anybody be able to help me with installing guest additions on OpenSUSE 12.1/12.2. I have looked via Google, but many people seem to have problems, so am looking for some guidance.

Best wishes and many thanks

You need to install a list of packages in order to install the Guest Additions. Here are the commands required. (Internet or DVD required)

zypper in kernel-desktop-devel
zypper in makefile
zypper in gcc

Not sure if it is all the packages. You can see the error during installation if it fails.

Cheers,
