Even though kernel.org recommends to run a linux-distro with the newest stable kernel, this is not possible with some packages installed in Ubuntu that need own Kernel modules. You could ask why the patch from http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/v/virtualbox/virtualbox_4.1.18-dfsg-2.1/changelog hasn't been adopted to Virtualbox 4.1.12 (12.04.2) and why the merge from Debian hasn't happend yet. This possibly refers back to the freezed status of Debians Wheezy. My personal solution is to use the newest package (4.2.6) from VirtualBox.org since I don't want to miss out the other bugfixes and enhancements the programm has to offer. Also I need to use USB 2.0 therefore I also installed the closed source "extension-pack" and use VirtualBox with the PUEL-Licence. And that since many years... ** Bug watch added: GCC Bugzilla #55940 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=55940 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1081307 Title: I'm upgrading the 12.04.1 to quantal 3.5 kernel - virtualbox-dkms 4.1.12-dfsg-2ubuntu0.2: virtualbox kernel module failed to build [merge request] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/+bug/1081307/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
