Bah, it's easy, :) in order to install virtualbox in F14 you must follow the
following steps
in a console as Root:


1.- su -c 'wget
http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/fedora/virtualbox.repo
-O /etc/yum.repos.d/virtualbox.repo; sed -i "s,enabled=0,enabled=1,g"
/etc/yum.repos.d/virtualbox.repo'

2.- su -c 'yum update; yum install -y VirtualBox-3.2 dkms gcc'

3.- sudo yum -y install kernel-headers kernel-devel

4.- su -c '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'

5.- su -c 'usermod -G vboxusers -a username'

(Replace "username" with your REAL username :P)

And that's all :)

(To list the kernel modules, I believe a "uname -r" will do the trick)
