Hi,
I have been trying to install VirtualBox on my Fedora 18 machine. I downloaded the rpm form virtualbox site, but when I tried to install it, I get the following error:
[root@localhost peeyush]# rpm -Uvh /home/peeyush/Downloads/VirtualBox-4.3-4.3.6_91406_fedora18-1.x86_64.rpm

Here is the dmesg output:

I am not able to understand the problem here. Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
