Hi all :)

In this moment i have install two kernels in my F23

- Kernel 4.2.0-1
- Kernel 3.19.7-200

Virtualbox work fine with the kernel 3.19, but when i use the kernel 4.x
and i run sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup for compiler the modules i give a
error message. Since kernel 4.x virtualbox is unusable for me. i'm not
sure if this is could be a bug or similar case.


Thanks :)
