virtualbox-ose-modules: statusexplanation |

That won't work, since the old images still are available (and therefore won't cause a conflict).
Apart from that, a missing kernel module (from universe) should not block a security kernel update.
There's a solution in sight (DKMS, IIRC) for Intrepid. Somebody wanted to look into it, but it does not look that there's a solution yet.
There's a method/workaround to manually build the module using module-assistant though (some m-a commands) - it gets often posted to bug reports "like this one". |

I'm closing this bug as "Fix Released" since in Intrepid virtualbox-ose uses dkms to automatically build the kernel module for ABI bumps.
Pascal, please file a new bug report for your new issue. Sorry, I cannot say anything about the combination of kvm/virtualbox: it works for me using the standard/generic kernel just fine.
Have you installed anything kvm specific (which may cause the conflict then)?
But as said, please report a new bug (or find an appropriate one) and provide this information there, too. |
