Joseph, I'm having problems doing that because of the VirtualBox kernel modules, which don't want to compile for the 4.16 kernel. Here's what I get why I try to re-install dkms and virtualbox-dkms: $ sudo apt-get install dkms virtualbox-dkms Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: linux-headers-4.13.0-26 linux-headers-4.13.0-26-generic linux-image-4.13.0-26-generic linux-image-extra-4.13.0-26-generic linux-signed-image-4.13.0-26-generic Use 'sudo apt autoremove' to remove them.
