Hello, If you were following my other thread you know I got a new server. I am again installing Virtualbox on it in headless mode. I have Virtualbox installed, but I need to know a couple things.

First is http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki down? Last time when I was installing Virtualbox I was using http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/VirtualBox as a guide, but it will not load for me now.
I need to know what kernel modules I have to add to my kernel for Virtualbox?
And I need to know what group I need to make my user a part of in order to run VBoxManage?

Next thing I want to do once I know its all working is install phpvirtualbox...

Moved from unsupported software as this appears to be a supported install

Doesn't ping for me either today. I wonder if somebody forgot to pay their bill again. The last time the wiki was down was because of some brawl between the hosting company and some client, and the wiki became a hostage. I think they even had to rebuild it from scratch that time because the filesystem didn't have a backup anywhere else.

I use kvm pretty much exclusively so can't tell you about what you might need for vBox.

gentoo-wiki.com is not hosted by Gentoo and contains mostly out-of-date docs that only mislead users, let it die in peace :P

The official and up-to-date wiki is at http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/VirtualBox
