Hey Gianfranco, thanks for looking into this. :) > ok the DKMS failure, but does everything work as expected?
No, my system does not finish booting with kernel 4.15. systemd reports that virtualbox-guest-utils-hwe.service failed and, after a few other services, stops loading more. I never get to the login screen. Why shouldn't I install virtualbox-guest-dkms-hwe? It was automatically installed when I installed virtualbox-guest-utils-hwe: $ aptitude why virtualbox-guest-dkms-hwe i virtualbox-guest-utils-hwe Recommends virtualbox-guest-dkms-hwe (= 5.1.38-dfsg-0ubuntu1.16.04.1) | virtualbox-guest-source-hwe (= 5.1.38-dfsg-0ubuntu1.16.04.1) | virtualbox-guest-modules-hwe This all started when linux-image-4.15.0-29-generic was installed (as an upgrade) and pulled linux-modules-4.15.0-29-generic (which contains virtualbox modules) as a dependency. linux-image-4.13.0-45-generic doesn't do that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783267 Title: linux-modules-extra breaks virtualbox guest modules To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1783267/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
