i have never had a problem with virtualbox and the only thing i have done is to put iommu away in kernel .

thanks

Hi hedmo.

Are the kernel sources installed and does the symlink points to the sources you building virtualbox against?

This Line looks a bit strange for me:
Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-3.0-mm'

I'd never seen a kernel source directory named like this

i am running the 3.0.0 kernel with andrew mortons beloved kernel patch

mybox linux # cd ..

If you really want to live on the edge and you think vanilla-sources are for wussies, then try out mm-sources. Be warned that this kernel is highly experimental and doesn't always work as expected. :twisted:
