ok, was missing akmods and other bits. I did yum install akmods (woo-oo I'm
getting the hang of linux) and got a whole bunch of stuff with it...



rpm -ivh /home/yoram/Download/akmod-VirtualBox-OSE-2.1.4-2.fc10.i686.rpm

error: Failed dependencies:
    VirtualBox-OSE-kmod-common >= 2.1.4 is needed by
akmod-VirtualBox-OSE-2.1.4-2.fc10.i686
    VirtualBox-OSE-kmodsrc = 2.1.4 is needed by
akmod-VirtualBox-OSE-2.1.4-2.fc10.i686


What next?

PS: I tried to google "VirtualBox-OSE-kmod-common" without success....
