VirtualBox for Slackware Users

Does 7.0.13 work and virtualbox-kernel compile for 6.6.3?

Yes.
You will want the file simply named, "Linux 64-bit".
Download the file, move to that directory and, as root, run,
sh ./VirtualBox-7.0.13-160458-Linux_amd64.run

You will also need the extension pack.

See the previously posted link to the documentation.

I've been struggling getting the SBo virtualbox to build after the 6.6.6 kernel upgrade. I saw your post and gave it a go - it took about 10 mins to get VirtualBox-7.0.13-160767 up and running. Thank you.

For Slackware you want the one simply labeled, Linux 64-bit.
