I too have no idea what the UnitedRpms are....
I'd say, it's a (better, more actual) replacement for rpmfusion:
https://gitlab.com/groups/FedoraUnited
What I do know is that you need the matching Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack for the
Guest OS to access some HW features of the Host.
The problem: I didn't find any (the VB version from UnitedRpms is
VirtualBox-5.0.20-1.fc24.x86_64), and the correspondent extpack version
from Oracle is
Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-5.0.20-106931.vbox-extpack). But
there is no extpack for the UnitedRpms version.
If you don't have the in the United RPMs
that is probably the issue.
Kind regards
