  1. sorry, after installation i can’t see the virtualbox icon on my menu…
    and there is no binary file to execute virtualbox-2.0 from shell..
    any idea?

    thanx before

  2. AFAIK, the binary of virtualbox is in case sensitive, try VirtualBox or Virtualbox instead..

  3. To start the binary file from the shell, you need to type VirtualBox. I just checked it.

    Also, considering you are using Gnome, VirtualBox can be found under Applications – System Tools.
