Yes, we do. All default desktop/server installation have matching kernel-headers & toolchain as needed to compile DKMS modules. Also if third-party drivers is ticked in ubiquity, ubuntu-drivers fetches and installs dkms-modules and/or binary drivers as needed, based on declared Modaliases. Looks like "virtualbox-guest-dkms" package doesn't declare any Modaliases, maybe it should be integrated with ubuntu-drivers, if possible. -- Regards, Dimitri. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
