Uninstall the version you got from the Fedora repos and install the version from virtualbox.org. Go to https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads and scroll down to RPM-based Linux distributions. Once you've got it installed, go to https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads and download VirtualBox 4.2.16 Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack. From the Virtual Box GUI, use FILE -> PREFERENCES to install the extension file you just downloaded. -- -- Steve -- users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
