- Open Yast, authenticate as root, and then go to Security and Users –> User and group management. Select your username from the list, then click Edit to make a username modification. Go to the tab named Details, then tick the group ‘vboxusers’ in order to add your username to that group. Make sure to reboot at this moment in order for changes to take effect.
- After your system reboots, you are ready to run VirtualBox. In KDE, VirtualBox should be in Applications –> System –> Virtual Machine (Oracle VM VirtualBox).
Load Virtualbox to the kernel:
/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
Start your virtualbox and enjoy!
