Hi all,
I’m using SLED11 SP2 32 bit with gnome only. I already have VirtualBox Installed, & it was working well. Today I download latest version of VBOX, “VirtualBox-4.1.22-80657-Linux_x86.run”. I installed it as root user. But whenever I try to run VirtualBox from terminal, it displaying “Could not find VirtualBox installation. Please reinstall.”. Only as root I can able to run VBOX. Even if I try from terminal as normal user “/opt/VirtualBox/VirtualBox” it displaying a error window with following content
"
Failed to create the VirtualBox COM object.
The application will now terminate.

Callee RC:
NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED (0x80040154)

"

I also tryed to run VBOX from “More Applications” —> “Oracle VM VirtualBox” but it does not displaying anything

Can anyone please help me to figure this out

Hi
Uninstall the .run version and download/install the SLE11 rpm instead

Hi malcolmlewis,
Where to find the SLE11 rpm, on “http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/virtualbox/downloads/index.html”
I didn’t find that package for SLED-11.
