When i tried to setup the virtualbox, i got this error:

[root@unixmen-F13 Downloads]# /etc/init.d/vboxdrv   setup
Stopping VirtualBox kernel module                          [ OK ]
Recompiling VirtualBox kernel module                       [FAILED]
(Look at /var/log/vbox-install.log to find out what went wrong)
[root@unixmen-F13 Downloads]# yum -y install kernel-headers
Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit
Setting up Install Process
Package kernel-headers-2.6.33.5-112.fc13.i686 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

How to slove this issue ?

Answer :

To resolve this issue you have to install kernel-PAE=devel package, this package provides kernel headers and makefiles sufficient to build modules against the PAE kernel package.

[root@unixmen-F13 Downloads]# yum install kernel-PAE-devel

Now try to recompile again :

[root@unixmen-F13 Downloads]# /etc/init.d/vboxdrv   setup
Stopping VirtualBox kernel module                          [ OK ]

[root@unixmen-F13 Downloads]#

Now is done.
