What version of Virtualbox are you running?

@Novatus
did you use 'Vbox builder" to create module? i assume you have development module activated?
please answer these 2 questions and i'll have a look on the builder this evening.

[Nouatvs]

VBox: version 4.3.8 r92456
i used Vbox builder and the development module was loaded in the boot.
Now i run Vbox builder without development module ( the programme automatically down it) and i obtained the same response.

[fanthom]

know the fix for this but must wait on brokenman response.
please hold till tomorrow.

Should be good to go now. I had not transferred the updated 05-devel module into the web wizard structure and it was trying to build from old headers. The eagle eyed fanthom noticed the time stamp on the 05-devel module was a little old.

Please download the newer 05-devel.xzm module from: http://ponce.cc/porteus/x86_64/current/modules or rebuild your ISO using the web wizard.

it doesn't work properly. it builds a module 4M. ( the development module loads in the boot or down it after the boot)

[brokenman]

I just tested it under MATE 64bit and it built perfectly.

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~$ ls -l /tmp/
total 170008

79M	/tmp/VirtualBox-4.3.8-porteus-v3.0-x86_64-1prt.xzm

Did you download the new 05-devel.xzm module and remove the old one?
Are you using 32 or 64bit KDE?

[Nouatvs]

R: 32.
That caught my attention. First search the repository ponce 32 bit.

[Nouatvs]

Solved. Thanks thanks for update devel.xzm
