That's most likely because the VirtualBox packages in this thread are built for Puppy 431 and its kernel version 2.6.30.5. Lucid Puppy (500 or 501) uses a newer kernel, so it can't use these particular packages.cosworth88 wrote:thanks for the password!
when i try to start the virtual box i receive an error message
what i have to do?? i'm using lucid puppyCode: Select all
RTR3Init failed with rc=-1912 (rc=-1912) The VirtualBox kernel modules do not match this version of VirtualBox. The installation of VirtualBox was apparently not successful. Executing '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' may correct this. Make sure that you do not mix the OSE version and the PUEL version of VirtualBox.
someone could help me please? ;(
I'll look around a bit, and see if there's already a package for Lucid Puppy or not, and then I'll edit this post accordingly.
EDIT: Well, I can't find a package for Lupu, but if you want there is one for Lighthouse Pup 500. It has the same kernel version as Lupu, but is an Spup (I think), so I don't know if the package would work with Lupu, but it definitely works with LightousePup (as intended). Just something to consider.
There was mention in one of the main Lupu threads that a VBox package might be developed. I've no idea when that'll happen, though.
Otherwise, Oracle distributes a *.run installer for VBox that you can try out. It's over here.
