Problem to install virtualbox

[jonas]

I have problem to install virtualbox 4.1.14 via sourcery (using 13.37 lxde on a Dell D430),
error message: Checking for iasl:    ** iasl (variable IASL) not found!
Check /usr/src/slapt-src/system/virtualbox/VirtualBox-4.1.14/configure.log for details fakeroot -- sh virtualbox.
SlackBuild Failed
Any idea/tips how to solve the problem is most welcome! // Br Jonas

Thank you Zhador, however still problem to install...

I added acpica and libvncserver via Gslapt, then started to install virtualbox via Sourcery,
after compiling for a long time it stopped with following error message log:

gcc: Internal error: Killed (program cc1)
Please submit a full bug report.....
....kmk: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
kmk: *** Exiting with status 2
fakeroot -- sh virtualbox.SlackBuild Failed

Any new hint what to do?

oom_killer maybe? Or some other error further back?

I recommend installing the PUEL version:
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
No need to compile and build a package

[jonas]

Which PUEL version (Linux distribution) to install?
I'm on Salix 13.37 LXDE and can't find salix nor slackware...

It should be quite obvious that you can use the one labeled "All distributions".

I did download "VirtualBox-4.1.18-78361-Linux_x86.run" from https://www.virtualbox.org/.
Sorry to say but this also failed, see screen message below.

root[jonas]# sh VirtualBox-4.1.18-78361-Linux_x86.run
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing VirtualBox for Linux installation...........
VirtualBox Version 4.1.18 r78361 (2012-06-20T10:02:27Z) installer
Please install the build and header files for your current Linux kernel.
The current kernel version is 2.6.37.6-smp
Problems were found which would prevent VirtualBox from installing.
Please correct these problems and try again.

Can anyone advice me what to do (I'm a newbee, please be patient: )

Code: Select all

# slapt-get -i kernel-source

And that is also the cause for fail to compile.
