The binary for openSUSE 11.4 and 12.1 also applies on openSUSE 12.2. You may 
wish to change the Download web page.

The new version still does not build on kernel 3.6-rcX. Fortunately, it only 
affects vboxpci, which I do not need.

One set of errors is due to a missing include. This is fixed by

Index: vboxhost/vboxpci/VBoxPciInternal.h
===================================================================

  #include <iprt/semaphore.h>
  #include <iprt/assert.h>

  #ifdef RT_OS_LINUX


There are also a lot of errors with messages of the form

/usr/share/virtualbox/src/vboxhost/vboxpci/VBoxPci.o: In function 
`iommu_attach_group':
/home/finger/wireless-testing-new/include/linux/iommu.h:260: multiple definition

/usr/share/virtualbox/src/vboxhost/vboxpci/linux/VBoxPci-linux.o:/home/finger/wireless-testing-new/include/linux/iommu.h:260: 
first defined here

I do not know the fix for these errors.
