Getting virtualbox to work
So on friday I updated my system with the latest patches. And all went well untill i tried to start virtualbox and the windows programs im using there. No luck – a big warning and it stoped and said that the kernel module was not started. 
So off to google a nd there is a bug and the odule for virtualbox has not compiled and been added to the repositories.
Found some sites talking about that you can download and make one yourself. And when trying that the command fails.
What i did trie was
sudo apt-get install module-assistant
sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-source
sudo module-assistant auto-install virtualbox-ose-source
But the build in the end failed. I got some weird asambler error in the end. So i did some thinking and thought of getting the source out and build it manually to see what the problem is. So i did:
sudo module-assistant unpack virtualbox-ose-source
That will unpack the sourve in /usr/src/modules/virtualbox-ose. So i cd there and tred a
sudo make
to se whats going wrong. And t comples – weird. Well lets test and install it:
sudo make install
and that works to – except that i make some complains about autoconf.
So i tested and loaded the module:
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv start
And it loaded the module. And now i have virtualbox working again.
