Thanks for the new release! There is one thing that confuses me a bit. The changelog includes: - Linux host: compatibility fixes with Linux > 2.6.24 Should that perhaps have been >= 2.6.24? Reason I ask is that I have been testing 2.6.25-rc2 and found that the virtualbox-ose vboxdrv module (using Debian packages) does still compile, but fails to run. The error I get is: vboxdrv: Unknown symbol change_page_attr Reason is the c-p-a changes in 2.6.25 where this function has been removed (commits e1271f68 and d1028a15). When I compared the 1.5.4 and 1.5.6 vboxdrv source code, it looks like 1.5.6 still uses change_page_attr unchanged. The kernel developers tell me that the change should be relatively simple, but it's beyond my skills. If anybody could point me to a patch, I'd be most grateful. Cheers, FJP
