Fedora Installation :: Kernel-devel Package With Version Between The Fedora And Update Repo Version
Sep 11, 2009I have a fedora 11 with kernel package: kernel-PAE-2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11.i686
I would like to install the devel package for this kernel version, but I can't find it, because in the fedora repo there is only the original kernel (2.6.29.4....) and in the updates repo there is only the newest kernel package (2.6.30....)
Where can I find the packages which are between the fedora and update repos' versions?

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Unable To Start VirtualBox Kernel Modules - Error Stopping VirtualBox Kernel Modules
Mar 23, 2011I was trying to install VirtualBox through the YaST > Software Management but it is not working, someone in the forum told me that I have to download the OSE version and do it manual way. Finally I am able to start up VB but not able to use the network connection. Thus I am trying to do this:
/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup. I get this error:

When I type dmesg, it shows me a bunch of info which I don't know what should look for. When I type modprobe vboxnetflt, I get the error: FATAL: Error inserting vboxnetflt (/lib/modules/2.6.37.1-1.2-default/updates/vboxnetflt.ko): Invalid module format. what should I do in order to get my VB to be able to connect to the internet?

Fedora :: Why Does VirtualBox Download Kernel
Jan 22, 2010I wanted to try VirtualBox so I did:
Code:
yum install vboxgtk
In the list of dependencies I found that it needs to download kernel. I was just curious to know that why can't it manage with the PAE kernel. It requires the kernel 2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12 whereas I've got its PAE version working right now. Can someone please explain why is it so?
Fedora :: Is Anyone Getting Kernel 2.6.31.12-174.2.22 To Work In Virtualbox?
Mar 2, 2010When I install the latest F12 kernel, my F12 installation freezes immediately on boot. The previous kernel booted fine. It's a little strange, because if I edit the grub.conf to use the old kernel, the freeze still occurs.Is anyone getting Kernel 2.6.31.12-174.2.22 to work in virtualbox? (both yes and no answers would be useful here)Does anyone have any idea of the cause (and especially, why updating the kernel would cause the _old_ kernel to freeze as well)

Sep 13, 2009I'm trying to get a fedora guest running reliable smp under VirtualBox 3.0.6. The VirtualBox manual says "Some Linux distributions, for example Fedora, ship a Linux kernel configured for a timer frequency of 1000Hz. We recommend to recompile the guest kernel and to select a timer frequency of 100Hz." So I tried recompiling the kernel. Being a responsible lad, when it came to setting the kernel specs:
Code:
# Polite request for people who spin their own kernel rpms:
# please modify the "buildid" define in a way that identifies
# that the kernel isn't the stock distribution kernel, for example,
# by setting the define to ".local" or ".bz123456"
#
# % define buildid .local
%define buildid .rim_for_vbox
I've successfully built and installed kernel, headers and firmware:kernel-2.6.30.5-43.rim_for_vbox.fc11.x86_64.rpm
kernel-firmware-2.6.30.5-43.rim_for_vbox.fc11.x86_64.rpm
kernel-headers-2.6.30.5-43.rim_for_vbox.fc11.x86_64.rpm
The system is working fine (well, so far). But trying to install the VirtualBox Guest Additions kernel add-ons still gives me
Please install the build and header files for your current Linux kernel. The current kernel version is 2.6.30.5-43.rim_for_vbox.fc11.x86_64. I'm pretty sure this is because my kernel doesn't match the development packagekernel-devel-2.6.30.5-43.fc11 (x86_64). So the key question is, how on Earth do I create a development package to match the responsibly-renamed kernel?

View 5 Replies View RelatedFedora :: VirtualBox Guests Hang After Kernel Update / Sort This?
Aug 7, 2010After updating to kernel-2.6.33.6-147.fc13.x86_64 (and updating all kmods) VirtualBox guests no longer boot.
I had a Windows guest (from now on refereed as Crapdows) that worked normally. After the update, I could get to the "Start Windows Normally" screen, but then Crapdows refused to boot. At first, I thought it was a crappy M$ bug, but after creating another VM (Doublecrap), and starting from scratch, I was able to get to the "Windows is loading files" screen, and then the guest hangs again.
This problem is generalized to all OS'es I've tried. In Ubuntu, I can get to the language selection screen before the installation freezes. The same applies for Fedora and SUSE guests.
Is it time to get my hammer?
Fedora :: Kernel 2.6.38.8-32.fc15.x86_64 - VirtualBox - Missing Module
Jun 16, 2011I generally check what updates are being installed. This time sadly I didn't and again this kernel had one missing module. VirtualBox-OSE stopped working. It had been working fine with other upgrades. No it's not a problem with dkms or other stuff. This kernel doesn't have vboxdrv module like other kernels...i verified it...
[Code]...
The 2.6.38.8 version doesn't have vboxdrv module!....hence again I have to roll back to older kernel. So before blindly upgrading....read this message!

Fedora :: Wrong Kernel On Version 11
Jul 26, 2009When I installed fedora 11 the other day using the live CD it installed the i586 kernel and not the i686, despite the fact that smolt seems to know that that the hardware is i686 (well, actually it's x86, but I'm not going to argue because I forgot to get that one...). Why would it install the i586 one though? (uname -r 2.6.29.6-213.fc11.i586) But more importantly, are there any specific issues which this version can cause that I should be aware of? I can't really be bothered to change it at the moment if there is no real issue with it but I'm not too sure what difference it makes? Is it slower? It seems to know that I have a quad-core processor and seems to use them fine.

Fedora :: Current Stable Version Of Kernel In F10?
Aug 26, 2009Which is the current stable version of kernel in fedora 10 and how can I installed because right now I have unstable kernel:
uname -a

I just want to get back to latest stable kernel of fedora 10. I'm not able from the grub to choose an older because there are only kernels for fedora 9. The problem was that previously I used fedora 9 however I upgrade it but it was still with kernel of fedora 9 so I pick it the unstable of fedora 10 and I installed it. Right now I just want to get back to current version of kernel in fedora 10 so I can upgrade it to fedora 11.
Red Hat / Fedora :: RPM Kernel Upgrade To Latest Version (SL6)
May 13, 2011I am relatively new to the Linux System (8 months). I am having issues after upgrading the Scientific Linux 6 kernel from its current 2.6.x version to the latest version that SL6 has available. The issue is that once I install the upgrade and reboot, the internet becomes extremely laggy when scrolling on web pages, so much so that you get a ripple like effect as your scrolling. Which doesn't occur in the current kernel i am using.
Current Kernel is: 2.6.32-71.18.2.el6
New Kernel RPM update is: 2.6.32-71.29.1.el6
I wish I could figure out the problem but I am having trouble identifying what exactly the current kernel has that the new one doesn't that would cause the internet lag. I have read other topics with similar kernel update problems, but none have expressed an internet problem & only an internet problem from a kernel update.

and
2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i586
Should I now expect any problems with later kernel releases or can I leave it this way? I boot in the .PAE kernel.
