I wonder if this will work with 3.7 and 3.8 kernels because for example NVIDIA and VirtualBox needed some fixes for building modules with those kernels.

The 3.7 kernels don't boot on my machine (known problem for AMD processors) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1077822

The 3.8rc2 from Ubuntu Mainline Kernels won't build modules for NVIDIA (Beta driver 313.09 from xorg-edgers PPA) so I can't test it either.

I'm also using self compiled package of OSSv4 because that way I have the freshest code (even though the last change was 10 moths ago) and I can enable Production quality resampler in vmix.

I know that version.h file was moved from:

/include/linux/version.h

to

/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h

Heads up - linux 3.7-rc* header file reorg - nV News Forums http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=2578811#post2578811

I don't know if those changes affect also OSSv4 kernel modules building procedure but people that can actually boot kernels newer than 3.5 should check that before it will be too late for Raring / 13.04.
