Hi,

if you need to compile the VirtualBox kernel modules against Linux
version >= 2.6.25 you might want to download the following two archives:

http://www.virtualbox.org/download/vboxdrv-1.5.7-for-linux.2.6.25.tar.gz
http://www.virtualbox.org/download/vboxadd-1.5.7-for-linux-2.6.25.tar.gz

These source should compile fine against Linux 2.6.25-rc7. Even if they
report to be modules for VirtualBox 1.5.7 they should work fine with
VirtualBox 1.5.6. Note that for the SVN version, you have to install the
modules from the SVN version.

The first archive contains the sources for the host kernel module. The
other archive contains the sources for vboxadd and vboxvfs for Linux
guests.

To use these archives you should install VirtualBox the normal way and
after that replace the module source directory by the files provided by
the above packages (either in /opt/VirtualBox-1.5.6/src or in
/usr/share/virtualbox/src).

Of course, the next version of VirtualBox will contain these fixes.

Kind regards,

Frank
