Such an automatic check would be a hack. Remember, the compilation has to be done as root. The better solution is to install the dkms package. DMKS will keep track of kernel upgrades and automatically recompile registered modules (vbox modules will be registered). This will work for the VBox host module as well as for the VBox guest modules (dkms in the Linux guest of course). Kind regards, Frank -- Dr.-Ing. Frank Mehnert Sun Microsystems http://www.sun.com/
