You will need to install the required drivers. In Fedora 11, the
following are installed for a 2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i586 kernel:
$ rpm -qa | grep dkms
dkms-2.0.21.1-2.fc11.noarch
$ rpm -qa | grep VirtualBox
VirtualBox-OSE-kmodsrc-3.0.4-3.fc11.i586
VirtualBox-OSE-guest-3.0.4-3.fc11.i586
kmod-VirtualBox-OSE-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i686.PAE-2.2.4-1.fc11.1.i686

kmod-VirtualBox-OSE-2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i586-3.0.4-2.fc11.6.i586
$ rpm -qa | grep kernel

You will need to reboot to the respective kernel.
$ lsmod | grep vbox

vboxdrv 104640 1 vboxnetflt
