Per https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds, VirtualBox 7.0.x is no longer supported. Please upgrade it to 7.1 in Mageia 9.
Thank you for the heads up.

virtualbox-7.1.8-1.mga9 is available in core/updates_testing
Still missing the kmod-virtualbox module. Waiting for completing bug #34189 to avoid overlapping. In the meanwhile you can use with the dkms-virtualbox module. There is also the virtualbox-kvm (which works alongside with qemu and doesn't require the extra modules) in my copr page.

mga9-64 OK using local dkms built kmod [morgan@svarten ~]$ dkms status virtualbox, 7.1.8-1.mga9, 6.6.87-desktop-1.mga9, x86_64: installed virtualbox, 7.1.8-1.mga9, 6.6.87-1.mga9, x86_64: installed virtualbox, 7.1.8-1.mga9, 6.6.87-server-1.mga9, x86_64: installed For now only tested with kernel-desktop-6.6.87-1.mga9 As test I took a (compacted backup of) my usual Windows 7 guest and perfomed same test as usual. On first launch using the menu in VirtualBox guest window frame, I fed it the guest additions, and it then downloaded the correct version and installed, and I let it reboot. Then I tested dynamic window resizing, USB 2 flash disk, host folder sharing write protected and not, bidirectional clipboard, drag file from Dolphin to Explorer, Internet video in Firefox.
One minor problem. (I saw it already during testing for Comment 4 but thought it was due to a mistake i made in moving a VM, but now i could repeat on another system.) On first launch after updating VirtualBox (and rebooting), it segfaults: [morgan@republic ~]$ VirtualBox Qt WARNING: Qt: Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 authentication rejected Qt WARNING: QObject::connect(UITranslationEventListener, QIRichTextLabel): invalid nullptr parameter Qt WARNING: QObject::connect(UITranslationEventListener, QIArrowButtonPress): invalid nullptr parameter Qt WARNING: QObject::connect(UITranslationEventListener, QIArrowButtonPress): invalid nullptr parameter Qt WARNING: QObject::connect(UITranslationEventListener, QIArrowSplitter): invalid nullptr parameter Qt WARNING: QObject::connect(UITranslationEventListener, QIDialogButtonBox): invalid nullptr parameter Segmenteringsfel (minnesutskrift skapad) Just launch again and it is OK. Now i tested a fresh install of VB on a third machine and there this problem did not show. Do other testers see this too?
Ready to test, including kmod for kernel 6.6.88-3 --- Test OK on Asus G75V, nvidia470 More spec see: Kernel tests per Bug 34189 comment #41 revisted: full OK using desktop 6.6.88-3 Tested both dkms built kmod as well as our binary package: Using Win XP guest, vdi prepared by someone else originally for VB6 Updated Guest extension pack when under Windows 11 VB7.1.8 host, then copied to this machine. Basic settings: W32 mode, 1 core, nested paging, PAE/NX, VBoxVGA Dynamic window size and full screen. Sound. Bidirectional clipboard text. Drag file from Explorer in guest to Dolphin in host. Host folder sharing. Performing time critical protocol "PPI" over USB2 with old Siemens S7-200 CPU using adapter dongle cable. (same guest fails this running on Windows 11 VB 7.1.8 host even on a much faster machine! Guest vdi was copied from that W11 system.) Network not enabled; i dont want it to connect to Internet.
