= SUMMARY = this patch addresses the overarching virtualbox host linux kernel module source code and not the specific problem of integrating it into the dkms package/setup (which is left as an exercise to the reader). i demonstrate how to use the below patch with the virtual-source package (which is how i compile the virtualbox linux kernel modules).
