[SOLVED] Hello everyone, I need some help with Virtual Box.

[italianbull]

Now I know there are articles, and guidelines out there, about how to install vbox, but I cannot understand everything they tell me. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10, and I am fairly new to Linux altogether, so if anyone can help me through the process, I would appreciate it, thanks.

There are two version of virtualbox available. One is open source, but lacks a few features such as USB support, one is proprietary and available through the virtualbox website.

For the open source do

sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose

For the proprietary, go here: Linux_Downloads - VirtualBox

Download the package for your architecture, ie, 32 or 64 bit, double click the package to install.

That should pretty much be it with Ubuntu. Here's a walktrhough for setting it up.

If you have a more specific question, ask, but it's hard to help out if there isn't a specific problem or error you're encountering.

I do not know how to open up the virtual box, after i install it.


Also, while installing it, I did get a [Fail], and it said, "No suitable module for running kernel found"

I do not know if that is relative, to my problem.
