The message is not correct, should be one custom message of RPMFusion . Please try: dnf install akmod-VirtualBox kernel-devel-$(uname -r) akmods no reply from Lorenzo Hi. In this case there doesn't seem to be a kernel-devel package, so can't test. Hoever I see that the initial message was wrong. Lorenzo. # /sbin/vboxconfig -bash: /sbin/vboxconfig: No such file or directory /sbin/vboxconfig is not part of VirtualBox-5.0.12-1.fc23.x86_64 , https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/79262/virtualbox-will-not-start-in-fedora23/?answer=79286#post-id-79286 If enable RPMFusion repos , uninstall all other VirtualBox stuff and do: in host system : dnf install VirtualBox kernel-devel-$(uname -r) in guest system: dnf install VirtualBox-guest kernel-devel-$(uname -r) after that: akmods systemctl restart systemd-modules-load.service in dmesg you should see kernel modules loaded: dmesg | grep -i vbox [ 2870.556703] vboxdrv: module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel [ 2870.565213] vboxdrv: Found 2 processor cores [ 2870.571315] vboxdrv: fAsync=0 offMin=0x1c2 offMax=0xa5f [ 2870.671515] vboxdrv: TSC mode is Synchronous, tentative frequency 3000795689 Hz [ 2870.671519] vboxdrv: Successfully loaded version 5.0.6_ (interface 0x00240000) [ 2870.671946] VBoxNetFlt: Successfully started.

You also have an early access of RPMFusion packages for F23 or builds for F22 and F21 (is where I test the builds) check in : https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/sergiomb/vboxfor23/ Description: VirtualBox 5.0.12 in testings Installation Instructions: dnf copr enable sergiomb/vboxfor23 Ok thanks Sergio. Will look into this. Still the guest is a Windows XP OS. Anyway I what I meant is that I guess the bug should just relate to the wrong message? Lorenzo. (In reply to comment #5) > Ok thanks Sergio.

In windows guest (slave system), you should install Windows Guest Additions from Oracle site . |
If trying to launch VirtualBox with a custom kernel (in my case 4.1.12-300.rt13.1.fc23.ccrma.x86_64+rt provided by Planet CCRMA) I get the usual warning: WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module available for the current kernel (4.1.12-300.rt13.1.fc23.ccrma.x86_64+rt) or it failed to load. Please recompile the kernel module and install it by sudo /sbin/vboxconfig However /sbin/vboxconfig is not present.
