Or not ! It's a free software, why use the non-free version ? BTW USB (mass storage) is working too on the OSE, with a simple trick.
Do tell.
For USB mass storage, you could use the rawdisk feature.
To use an USB printer in a Windows guest system, you maybe can connect via IPP to CUPS running on your Linux host or use Samba.

@ laprjns
First, sorry it took so long to respond to your suggestions. I tried what you said and downloaded the kernel source as you said then ran the next command.
Code: Select all
root|[~] $ /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxdrv setup
Stopping VirtualBox kernel module ...done.
Recompiling VirtualBox kernel module ...done.
Starting VirtualBox kernel module ...done.
Then I ran the command virtualbox both as user and root and got the same response
Code: Select all
Qt WARNING: QGtkStyle was unable to detect the current GTK+ theme.
Outside of the backgrounds I haven't changed anything in the theme. Any suggestions?
thanks,
john

Not a lot of answers though. Maybe try Virtualbox Puel, if you don't have any objection to using non-open source

Thanks to you both for your help,
