VirtualBox will not run

I have used VB on Ubuntu in the past. I have it installed on my F13 machine, but when I run it, the computer seems to do nothing. No window opens or anything.

I am trying to run it from the applications menu. It shows up under Applications=>Systems Tools=>VirtualBox OSE. This is the first time I have tried to run the program.

Any ideas about what could be going on?

Re: VirtualBox will not run

Run Virtual Box from terminal and see if you get the error described in this thread. If yes, then then they still haven't fixed the package and you will have to either run VB as root or use the proprietary version from Oracle.
