virtualbox.org

Hello,

I have installed the latest virtualbox version in OpenSuse 12.2.
When i try to run it i receive the message :

WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module
available for the current kernel (3.4.6-2.10-desktop) or it failed to
load. Please recompile the kernel module and install it by

sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.

And when i type (in superuser mode) /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup i receive:

Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules done
Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules done
Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMS failed
(Failed, trying without DKMS)
Recompiling VirtualBox kernel modules failed
(Look at /var/log/vbox-install.log to find out what went wrong)

The log/vbox-install.log says

Makefile:181: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again. Stop.

What can i do to fix it?
Thank you in advance

install what it is telling you to install. kernel-source and kernel-syms

I installed kernel-source and kernel-syms
I did the same mentioned above and the log file now writes:

Now it says gcc is not found. so install gcc
